My kid hasn't had a real game since March. Not much to discuss.

Besides, EJ and Luis convinced me that talking about my own kid is a bad idea.

Near me, I like Sacto Blues, San Juan, and MVLA. PSV is an injury factory. Mustangs are decent but play too direct for my taste.

But, when you openly encourage the spread of disease, such as chalklines' anti-vaccination slur, expect people to object.

I'm not well this morning Dad. Ran out of meds last night and not sure how the rest of the day will go for me. It's hot like AZ today so I will go to my secret spot and chill and look at nature. Oh boy, this is insane. I found my old mask btw and will wear it through Nov 3rd. I like this one :)

What are you hearing about the explosion of SJ Quakes DA? Where did all those players land?

The vaunted DA National Champion '04 Quakes team got their comeuppance when they traveled to So Cal last November. Losses in one weekend to both SD Surf & LAGSD/City SC.

Not sure what team showed up but the one sent to play the Blues last year was not the top top players. They rested. Awesome job btw regardless and way to represent socal. They have some of the best players in the country and most committed early. Good for them.

Yeah -- not sure it was a comeuppance playing without 3 regulars and their normal starting goalie, but any time that club lost I was not sad.

You're saying girls are still driving 2 hours, one way, for practices even though they aren't DA anymore? For Andres, I presume?

The good old days. I won't share I promise but those were thru talented battles vs De Anza and the great coach who demanded play in the back. Those were glory days for me as dad only watching awesome possession soccer between two of the best. My dd never talks about those days anymore. BTW, I like all the soccer talk Nocal is doing. This is fun stuff. Whose #1 up there for 04? I saw all the 2022 commitments and I would say the Bay Club is maybe #1?

I can def believe that wasn't their starting keeper but the rest of the committed/national team girls played all weekend.
The 04 team they used in the DA Showcase/Playoffs in Florida was def not their top regulars as most of them played up.
Very talented group of girls no matter what that play an amazing style and are very well coached!

For 2004, I’m not sure you can pick a #1 until Bay Area plays MVLA.
2006 I’d give the nod to San Juan.

You're going to see a lot of 'Quakes undershirts at UCLA in the coming years. I'm not sure who the #1 club is but 'Quakes was up there. I suppose Mustang, out of Danville, is the most "prestigious" club in NorCal. MVLA has done a pretty impressive job sending players to the next level. Davis had a great year, 2 years ago, but we'll see what the future olds. Davis is a small, college town and they can draw from the east bay or Sacramento, are ECNL and have a facility with something like 20 fields. California Thorns was another San Jose based DA, like 'Quakes, that was drawing strong players from 1-2 hours away.

Norcal is doing well with their 2022 recruitments. Mvla and FCBA are neck and neck but I would given the edge to MLVA. You are starting to see some of those 04 starting to commit. What's your thoughts on the incoming 05's in Socal and Norcal?

I know nothing about 05s. I only care about 2022 AND 04s. I do hear 05 is a very talented bunch. Mvla is big time with big time players and I forgot to add them to that old rankings in 2017. I put them in as top as well :) You guys rock up there and are loaded with talent and play great soccer. I mean that. I was impressed with AZ teams playing possession. It's great to see :)
