That is terrible, but last I checked Thanksgiving isnt in October. Im not disputing things are worse than in October, no one can. What I am saying is the fear porn is at epic levels right now. The area with the most lax rules over Thanksgiving is dropping in cases and hospitalizations. We "should" follow that trend..
Surf Cup's Fate
- Thread starter oh canada
- Start date
Oct was when my county opened restaurants. That was the surge.
Then we had Thanksgiving. That caused a surge on top of the first surge.
No thanks on following North Dakota on this.
Los Angeles has had indoor dining shut all along and we still got the surge.

Would love to see if your "accurate assumptions" turn out to be accurate. My accurate assumptions say your assumptions are wrong, at least for quite a few teams.
When someone says 450 teams are pulling out previously and now says 85% but then can't name the teams, I can't help but roll my eyes. I guess the truth will come out amongst all this BS info that anyone can claim is accurate lol.
For olders big Bunch of Surf & Slammers teams added.
(12) or so Beach teams, (9) City SC, (6) DMCV, (10) Eagles, (15) Heat NV, (7) LAFC Slam, (8) Pats, (15) Real Socal, (12) Rebels, (12) RSL AZ, (10) Blues, (7) Strikers
Utah, texas, washington also sending teams with Utah having the biggest numbers over AZ for example.

Fair enough. You can see how the argument is circular and how your characterization of quite a few teams is just as vague as someone saying many teams aren't coming. Surf is on until it's not. If it's on, safe travels and enjoy your time in AZ. Hopefully your matches are played on the pitches at SSC.
But, but, but Dad4 told us everyone had dropped out of the tournament and it was just a barstow scrimmage game now.

Yeah, given that I always think that "competent government" is an oxymoron, I'm not surprised.And because our California government is incompetent (particularly the EDD), $2 billion in Covid unemployment benefits went to prisoners and other non-qualified individuals and because our Federal government is incompetent unknown billions of PPP has gone to businesses that didn't qualify.
California unemployment fraud amid COVID-19 pandemic may total $2 billion, Bank of America says
The bank, which has contracted with the state Employment Development Department to issue debit cards containing unemployment benefits, issued the warning in a letter to California legislators.www.latimes.com
On the other side of the scale, they had to do something rapidly so nobody should be shocked at the lack of controls.

He wants to get an early start on reporting teams to the state of CA is the reason.
where do you see this information?
So release the teams list, and keep it up to date.
Right now, we have a Surf website saying Beach is in, and a Beach parent saying all teams are out.
Doesn't inspire confidence in the rest of the list, does it? Sure seems like cancellations might be kept quiet until after it's too late to get money back.

And just by coincidence within a 2-3 week window every state and pretty much every country in the N Hemisphere had the same spike as well?
I guess they all opened up their restaurants in Oct as well.
Nope, we are both wrong, it turns out it was entirely altruistic gesture to prevent people from overpaying for lower quality soccer.
Just so everyone understands, you dont have a kid playing in the tournament so now you have made it your life mission to talk crap about the tournament and spread false misleading information with no factual basis. Do you even have a kid in youth soccer? What is your obsession with this tournament? Surf team turned your kid down due to sub par play? Vendetta now?
All Beach teams are out. The oldest age group requested an exception on the girls side and were denied by the club.
Actually, in October we had a national conspiracy to close all restaurant windows and reset the clocks to make it dark in the evenings.
I think the illuminati were behind it. It's where their name comes from.

Thats exactly my point, the vague answers after claiming 450 teams and 85% being pulled makes it very hard to be credible. All I asked for was who are these teams? How can we trust assumptions after claims like that? Let's just see what happens.

I just find it more than entertaining that you cant really explain why pretty much everywhere in the N Hemisphere had the same spike within roughly the same 2-3 week period.
Your go to is well it must be restaurants and bars. As if magically everywhere in the N Hemisphere bars and restaurants all by chance also opened up in the same 2-3 week window.
Hey I wonder if this square peg fits into that circular hole? Didn't the first few times. Maybe this time it will.
You actually typed this out and didn't realize the irony? You are accusing someone of the very thing thing that you went on to do.
So..to make sure I understand, you are accusing someone of not making a Surf team and then using that as a motive to provide false information about a tournament that is obviously not what it set out to be. And you went directly after their player? Strong, and quite the tuff guy.
At some point we will see what the team list is and then we can rehash everyone's opinion on whether the competition is good or not. There will undoubtedly be opinions, which is not a bad thing.
What exactly is false information? someone just posted that 12 beach teams are going followed quickly by someone saying none are going?
