So isn't that the same guy who runs the club he is (and has been for three years) telling everyone is a sure fire shoe in. I'm sure he doesn't have any other motive to tell people this. I would be more probe to believe what you were saying if it at least came from a disinterested party. -
Spoken like a clueless parent
You'd just blindly play for a club because they are associated with the Thorns? Name recognition is not enough. I'm not sure why you are referencing FC boys ECNL is girls only. I don't understand what all clubs working together is either, ECNL will select one or two clubs not a pool of many clubs working together.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Casl weak really weak
CASL Last year at the ECNL national final only scored 1 goal had 15 put in on them and did not win any of there 4 games played. How on earth did they put 3 in on you? They took dead last in the finals. Hope that puts things more in perspective. Who was the got soccer ranked team lets see how they did. I hope you don't due casl as your ECNL benchmark because you are in for a rude awakening.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I have to jump in here. Are you serious??? Oh sorry that they are playing bad ECNL teams?? At least they are playing ECNL teams, 90 percent of the teams in the state of oregon do not even play ECNL teams.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Hence
Hence the word suspect. The difference is you gave up speed for size the ECNL teams or great teams don't settle on one or the other. They get the players that have both. As for your 3 back see how long that will last. You will get picked apart especially with a slow back line. If onyx goes to ECNL TA is going to have to make some big changes if he wants yo compete with the big dogs at ECNL events. Just a fact.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Yep
Your right they nor 99 percent play ECNL teams, ECNL teams play in leagues and events. All other minimal events are just that training. was just responding to the poster remark of how well they stacked up vs ECNL teams. The example they used was a very bad one.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

1. There are some pretty awful ecnl teams and being ecnl doesn't in the least mean you are a good player nor does it mean you are on a good team. If you don't know this, you don't know anything.
2. Ecnl is a long shot at consolidate talent in Oregon. There is barely enough talent as it is not to mention 3/4 those families aren't going to pay up to 10k for a soccer season.
3. Timbers stand a chance of making it work if they ever get it as they have the funds and ability to get flight sponsorships etc but do you really think thusc or broke FC has 200k lying around to get in not to mention having to fund 4 teams.
4. See #1. Why do all of this when you are going to play on a team who will get beat by non ecnl teams and those non ecnl teams will still get players on to top schools without you having to fork over 7-10k multiplied by 3-4 years. Good job competing with that.
5. Ecnl is pretty new and these crazy ecnl parents from this area have no clue this is going to work out, they just are going on what they are told but hopefully they can convince you they aren't crazy and this is the magic button!
6. I'm not from thusc and care very little about onyx but its crazy to think how jealous or full of hate they are against that team...onyx would be successful in ecnl, more than many ecnl teams including the teams these crazies are driving up to play on.
If your kid is good. Get them to a club who has decent older teams and doing a few good showcases. Don't read into the buying your way on a college team propaganda when ecnl teams and non ecnl teams both have kids going to top schools.Comment

There are some atrocious ecnl teams with not so good players. Do you not know this? Your kid is most certainly not on a ecnl team that TA needs to make changes to to compete with... or are you the idiot that really, truly, believes that because it means elite club national league, that must mean you are elite...Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
So funnyComment

Agreed
Yes There truly are some Terrible ECNL teams with some really bad players. Never said my kid was on an ECNL team. I was only giving you my opinion and facts that are easy to look up. What part of what I said is false? Touchy touchy must be parent of a marginal player. Lol happy FridayOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Uhhhh you were mouth breathing and getting all worked up over onyx s record and their opponents in which you have no idea other than what you ve "looked up"Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
A lot of mouth breathing for a parent who's kid wouldn't even make an onyx. Funny funnyComment

A lot of back and forth here about the same things. There will be an answer to the clubs on ECNL status very soon, can't we all just wait? Then get mad about the decision....Comment

I agree with changes but not big changes. You are trying to make it something that it's not. They are much closer than you think and the team is far from healthy at this point. Add a couple players just from getting the ECNL and this team will be just fine.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
