Top Drawer 06 rankings

[SOCCerJunKIE]

What are your thoughts ? At first glance I notice there was no change at the top and the biggest change was TFA jumping 6 spots. Must of been an impressive month as I researched and read from their match reports that they beat LAFC 3-2, Strikers 4-0, San Jose Earthquake 1-0 and LA Galaxy 6-1 in a span of two weeks.
Also making the list is Pateadores at #16 . Thats awesome to see that their great start of the season has given them some recognition.

Honestly it has been a few years since I looked, so it may be a little bit better now. Back then, they typically missed any teams that were not in ECNL (and GotSoccer ignored ECNL), but that was before DA. Back then at least, there was some money changing hands between TDS and ECNL. There really is not any good way to rank teams that do not play against one another anyway, so it just does not matter all that much at the fine level (ie, being in the top 5 or 10 teams are somewhat interchangeable. Unfortunately tournaments use them to determine who gets in and for seeding the flights. Don't worry about it too much, it goes by fast. At least I saved the screenshot of when DD's team was rated #1 in the World by GotSoccer.
