Haven’t heard anything on that. You?

The last I heard was that it was still a "no", but that they were going to keep trying? Supposedly having SJ and Davis so close was making things trying, (but they gave it to the Boys at Placer, so who really knows?)

I think we both know what it would take. ;)

I have no insider info, (not part of the cool kids club!) but until they get a complex of some sort, (not Tinker- it sucks,) I'm just not sure it will come to fruition for the girls. Feel sorry for all those DA players. I think that's why SJ and Davis got so many Placer folks!

I think Blues and Placer would have to merge, again, for this area to get a 3rd ECNL club in the region.

Sacrilegious, I know.

That's kinda how I feel about West Coast and Pats on the girls side. Ever since Pats was given DA and West Coast lost ECNL by going all in DA they have watered each other down and you already have 4 other OC ECNL clubs/teams. No way they ever merge that's a horrible idea. Why was Pateadores ever given DA for girls in the first place? Riding on the backs of the boys?

Pats boys side is real deal I heard. I thought they were top dog in 2016? When Pat's Girls were announced as Fully Funded, it peaked my interest, I wont lie. LA Galaxy as well with the Fully Funded Girls program. Everything Free has a nice ring to it bro. LAFC as well was going Fully Funded as did Surf and Legends go Fully Funded. Blues & Strikers makes you pay so the fact their still holding strong is a testament to, "you get what you pay for."

I am not a Placer fan, (no shade to anyone who is,) I just feel like they did a lot of awful shit last year. Not that Blues doesn't have their own issues, (show me a club who doesn't though, right?) but I do think if they end up getting the fields with WJ, that could be huge. They do have some really good coaches.

Unfortuntately I think you are probably spot-on. But, we can hope it doesn't happen, right? :)

Time heals all wounds... in theory. The fields are happening, both WJ and expansion to the current location. I think there’s too much bad history, though, or at least too many key people that were there the first time. Maybe Blues goes after ECNL in a year or two.

I do, though, think it would take something like that. They both have some really good coaches.

If you know the history, as long as GT and RB still involved, good luck! Would be entertaining to see them try though.
