Bay Area Surf - MLSNext / GA Rumor

[shirivelli]

Posting gossip anonymously while espousing that someone else should "do the right thing" and "raise concerns with the Surf organization" is rich. If you're part of Surf - and you can help them identify and address things that you (and they) feel are problems - great. If you're not - nobody cares about random internet gossip tied most directly to jealousy.

I've been reading your posts on the forum here from time to time, some offer solid feedback. But there's a noticeable undercurrent of pent-up anger, especially whenever the topic veers toward Rankings...

For some reason, I keep picturing Adam Sandler in Anger Management whenever I read your comments.

This is a community space where people come to stay informed, share experiences, and yes, even indulge in a little gossip (as you put it).
Maybe it’s time to consider a healthier outlet or eve some helpful support, like the kind Adam Sandler got. That much unresolved frustration isn’t good for anyone.

You're mistaking anger for contempt.

Heard a bunch of players on the girls side left the club because of a rumor that Bay Area Surf is planning to move to MLSNext/GA. Any truth to this? I would be shocked that they would leave ECNL on the girls side...but apparently a bunch of girls left because of this...doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Anyone in the know out there?

The rumor I heard is ECNL is pressuring clubs to full ECNL membership. MVLA was threatened (allegedly) that they would lose girls ECNL if they left.

What I think we will see is a way around this issue where clubs will need to divide and be only boys or only girls to keep their platforms.

Don’t be surprised if Force girls side becomes Force All Stars and Bay Area Surf boys become Bay Area Rush.
