  1. I definitely care more about development then winning, but the clubs care primarily about winning bc thats how they keep their ECNL status. Lose too much and you get your credentials pulled. The club at my sons age has earned two ECNL teams, but they were worried about splitting the talent too much between north and south teams, so they shifted to one great and one really good team and practice in three locations per week. So, the American "winning culture" model is definitely encouraged by US Soccer and ECNL. MLS next might be a different story. I suspect it is because they are directly affiliated with a parent club. But talk about burn-out city with MLS next.
  2. the above are all indie approved pop, all are fantastic artists/songs
  3. Damn, Solar carries 19 girls (and two keepers) on their top team? That's crazy for playing time purposes, but maybe they've got something right because the training is where all the development is at anyway. 100% of those girls will at least play college even if they get Pulisic minutes for Solar U12. My son plays on the top ECNL team for his age for LSC (they went away from N/S teams to Red/Black) but I'm slightly concerned he won't be able to keep up the rigor before he gets to make a choice on his future with the sport. The women's developmental teams are still in good hands, IMO, even after the GA went away. American academies are really good for the women's game, better than the mens IMO.
  4. I'm a swifty and IDGAF. Tis the Damn Season and Cruel Summer are my jams.
  5. how do you not plop down the six bucks a month for peacock? Yeah, its a terrible interface and they need to also stream games that are live on network TV and they need a better toggling option between games, BUT ITS SIX BUCKS FOR THE PREM!

    you CANNOT teach size, speed, and effort but you CAN teach an elastico or a chop. This would be a great move if he plays.
