ECNL vs. DA turf war has created a 'toxic environment'

Some of you need to show some compassion. Imagine anyone, a newbie, dad gone for three years or longer coming to the SoCal Forum for the first time and you see "Girls Development Academy." Based on some of my experiences in youth soccer the last 9 years, I hope you can appreciate my temptation to click on the thread. Some great Topics there to scroll through. Take a peak right now and look at them. The one that jumped out at me and sucked me right in was this one. I didn't start it either.

Let me explain something to you Mr Baller (just playing I promise), yes I'm basically telling you if your not in the DA your dd is on the B team in NoCal. If one of your kids can make the next list that comes out, I will personally donate $250 to any youth sports team of your choosing not named Quakes. The only YNT List I'm referring is for 04s only to be clear. I don't know about the 05s or 03s or the National Team List and I frankly don't care. Only OH FOUR, that's it. They were 11,12 and 13 back when it all started as baby goats, now some are 14 and 15. Head to head does not count anymore and all contest and scores don't count before 2018. ODP was head to head. Quakes for example: Top 4 GOATs + All 4 YNT Members +All 4 UCLA= The best team ever assembled hands down except the Surf 04' team before DA because we always beat them too just like your saying. I never heard of your team. The only team I ever heard of was De Anza. I think we beat you guys anyways down here in a tournament. Did you ever lose to a SoCal team Baller with your dd squad? I honestly can't be 100% sure but I do remember we beat every NoCal team we played in the old days. The top players were always there too so no excuses please. Surf goats were not allowed to play up so our squad was 100% there ready to ball. Ever hear of our coach back then? Look him up some day. It was "Dear In Headlight Moment" for those Quakes. Before De Anza and your other goat teams that formed after the big shake up, it was the Surf GOATs 04' team and we spanked everyone. Does it really matter now days how a GOAT team is actually formed anyways and by whom and for what? Freedom. What I'm saying is, "we were before you were." Is that cocky? I hate all NoCal Sports Teams but I don't hate you or anyone up there personally. I'm a sports junkie, that's it. And based on your name you seem to like balling too. No one could touch us before the great philosophy, trust me :). The team she was on before that was even better if you could believe that. State Cup Champs baby!!!! Fact already told everyone what happen and is still pissed off about it. Reap what you sow some say and we sowed a National Championship and that's one accomplishment no one can take from her or all her teammates. Last SoCal championship for our age group too. Quakes got DA u15 this year. Did you guys get anything? I honestly don't know.

Man, your SD Surf goats got smoked by the Northern California B team in the Surf Cup final. Here’s a little video reminder, since you have a short memory:

Haha. Keep rambling, my dude.

ok, you got me. It that's that stupid EGSL thing we were all forced to do then whatever. That was a stupid waste of time and you know it. Sorry you had to make that drive or fly if you had too. Right after Surf Cup too We played Earthquakes too and that sucked because both teams were missing some goats so I never count this stuff but I guess you do and I stand corrected. I have many videos sent from dads like you. I appreciate it. Anyway, I'm sure you guys won the big EGSL battle. And your point is?

Dude, it’s THE SURF CUP FINAL. Not an EGSL event. Quit making shit up, making excuses, and acting like your greatest team of all time before DA wasn’t trying to win THE SURF CUP FINAL.

You know what bro, I stand corrected. You guys should be #1. I went through as fast as I can and I can tell from this game you guys are #1. I'm sorry man. I don't want to make excuses. Just curious, how many YNT on your team? Top 10 D1? Thank for the video too
 
What was the final score, I forgot? You guys were good, I remember. I just was testing you bro. You guys are getting screwed up there. I hope it all works out for your baby goats up there. Too bad no list members for you guys. Maybe this year?

Just one excuse. We were only in our 3rd month together as a GOAT team preparing for the National Championship. So be easy on the mistakes too. Some us were coming over from kickball and would get yelled at if we dribbled too much. It was good but hard if you know what I mean Baller.
 
Based on video evidence I now need to change who #1 truly is in the nation for 04' It's MLVA #1, Quakes #2 and then the rest. Baller, how did you guys do in ECNL this year? Was it fun and competitive? Did you ever get to play the Quakes this year? Surf?

You guys got me. Video proof is always good to have and Mr Baller has it. "Deer in head light moment" for me for sure. Egg on my face and a big talker I am. One more correction too that I embellished a little. Is wasn't CSUF that I got asked to redshirt, it was Fullerton JC. I did ball with all those other guys and dreamed of playing in Euro ball and the B league adult league though
 
Justus said:
Sorry, I mean to say, "my dd got big time screwed over." I got screwed over back in 85' when I walked on CSUF and Garrido wanting me to red shirt. He told me I could be the next Mickey Rivers. However, I tried hard that hot summer to hit that damn curve ball with no luck. I could see the writing on the wall. He wanted me to be a scout player at best, maybe steal a base my SR year and shag fly balls all day and maybe throw some BP and ruin my arm. I said no thanks and went straight to the gym and worked on my basketball skills and got really good. I mean really good. Reggie and Cherly would be there, Fryer from CDM, Tom Lewis, Leon Wood would come play some and a little Scottie Brooks now and then. I was thinking maybe I could shoot them up in Europe with the likes of Kevin McGee from UCI. However, when I would run with them I only worked on defense because well, they were a little better than me and I never, and I mean never, saw the rock to shoot and I wouldn't dare try either with my squad. I soon realized I was a adult B league player play at best and that's it. The A league guys were all ex pros and D1 only and they never passed. B league, I was where I was needed and I was having fun. I got the call up sometimes with the A team guys but I didn't have fun because, well, they were complete ball hogs and I wanted to go back to the glory days where I was the star attraction and that could only happen at B League Adult Men's team, not D1 college ball at UCLA which was my dream. All my friends would mock me all the time when I was 11.

I didn't know everything I say would come back to bite my ass so I want to correct the record. It was Fullerton JC, not CSUF that I was asked to redshirt. Augie and CSUF sounded better so I went with it. Reggie was never there and Cheryl I saw at Main Beach and she destroyed some dude and he was pissed. I'm old too guys and I can't remember every detail of my life.

Actually Baller, I'm not letting you off that easy. I got a PM just now (I promise the guy I wouldn't out him like some do on here) from someone from the Quakes side to tell me to ask you the following:
1. How many "guest goats" did your squad bring to Surf Cup 2016? Be honest too. Every out of state team does it. Texas teams are the worst especially at Surf Cup.
2. How many of your goats tried to get on the Quakes but the spots were fillerd already? Not my questions, so don't get mad at me for those two. 3. My question is where were you guys for Far West Regionals in 2017? You guys play gr8t soccer btw and I mean that sincerely.

Join the club Justus! We’re all old!!
 
I keep looking at the title of this thread and want it to end. I'm thinking the conclusion for my part in all this will read something like this,
"16 months of hard work and then Selection Sunday." March Madness theme but more about September 2017. I'm going to chill, look for a hug and come back later Sunday unless more breaking news hits the wire. Let's all enjoy the weekend watching our kids play something. No harm, no foul :)

1) Tell the “Quakes guy” that the team had one guest - goalie who played the second half. Also tell the Quakes guy, that he should’ve known that because they lost to that team 3-1 in the semifinal(they were DeAnza back then) a few hours earlier, and that he should be familiar with the roster since they played a half dozen times in the months before the Surf Cup
2) Zero as far as I know. Not sure many kids would want to try out for a team they beat 9 out of 10 times in year prior.
3) Northern California’s top clubs play in NPL, which has their own state cup, The NorCal Premier League state cup, which is not associated with the Far West Regionals. None of the top teams play the tournament that leads to the Far West, which is why you usually see a real weak Northern California tram at Far West, or the Northern California spot is conceded to another team from another region.

So the Surf #11 National Championship they got was missing some teams your saying? No Cal was somewhere else? WTF happened to De Anza anyways? If you guys were the cream at the top up there, how come they got the DA and your MVLA was shut out? No YNT picks either, did that register yet and how do you and the team feel about that since it sounds like you guys are the ones doing all the spanking? Did they get first dips because of the MLS connection? Did MVLA at least apply? I super, duper stand corrected and feel honored Baller. I now remember you guys :)

I don't want to pry into too much personal here, I'm really just curious. How many D1 commits now for the team? Why do you think no player from your squad made the list this time around?

Lost to FC Pride SC ECNL 1-2. Last time Quakes played MLVA was 2 years ago and MVLA won.

Quakes( DeAnza at the time) wanted DA. MVLA didn’t want DA ( But they did apply) at the time because they felt Ecnl was well establish and didn’t see why to change course. They have a couple of girls in YNT. MVLA is a huge club starting from the grass roots. Quakes got rid of there grass roots program.

I just woke from nightmares of Curry raining 3's on me (not the Lakers) in a pick up game at UCLA. Magic was there too getting in a run with us. It was horrible dream. I met Magic the week b4 for the first time at one of his new businesses he started up in Inglewood (I do a little marketing on the side to make extra money to pay my bills). I was bragging how gr8t of a player I was to Ervin. After 5 minutes of listening to my big fish stories he invited me to play in one of the GOAT pick up games at Pauley. Curry showed up. You know, the one no one believed in. Well, Mr talker got his ass handed to him in the dream game. It wasn't even close. I wake up from the nightmare to get ready for VB tourney all day and that temptation to click to see if anyone responded got to me and low and behold it's you @gotothebushes, of all people :) If it was 2-0, than my baby goat could not possibly have had the game of her life. And if your team was not entered in the FWR, then I feel *might need to be next to #11* and I hate that but it seems fair right now. I also heard a few teams from Texas were missing but let's just leave at that. Too much truth can hurts sometimes. The true #1 04' team is MLVA, and I can say most likely the last 3 years too. That's a hard one to swallow but I believe in fairness and that can only happen on the field, not behind closed rooms IMO. So again, you got me and I'm impressed with MLVA. Can I get at least a do-over and try to get my story straight? It was 3 years ago, just saying. Enjoy the day with the kids and have fun up there and I hope my dd team can get a chance to try and play your team someday :)
