Silver Lakes College Showcase, Surf College Showcase, November Nights

My DD and her team(s) decided where to play. Thanksgiving was always trying to get into Surf and November Nights was the backup. Nov Nights was the norm and there were lots of scouts at U-17. Without a doubt, never on an ECNL, Vegas was the most well attended by scouts for my kid's teams. With parents playing a big role in the decisions between two teams at u15/16 and u17/19, some 28 girls are either already on college teams or will be next year.

With regards to Thanksgiving, Surf would still be my choice with Silver Lakes/November Nights as backup.

You see, that's what I'm talking about. Rather than argue substance, your first instinct is to degrade my daughter and her club. (of course knowing nothing about either)

What have you added except bragging and mocking?

The subsidy comment is stupid, but no one should be surprised.

Why would I argue with someone that is beneath me. I have hundreds of posts here and thousands on the old forum. My contribution is out there. I don't care about who you are or anything about you or your daughter. Mine will never play with or against her. So honestly you can get butt hurt all you want to. I'm on here for my entertainment and outside of those that ask me directly for help it is more fun for me to smack down peons like you and to rail on Legends because of the almost Branch Davidian way you guys rally around each other. I'm on here to dispell Cali's lies and hype. And on occasion I'm on here to spew lava at a douche bag like you.

We can continue if you want padawan or you can crawl back into your hole and stay out of my way. This is as nice as in going to be. Next time it gets personal.

What substance is there to argue? Surf had twice as many scouts, was the first destination for them AND Anson Dorrance (you probably don't know who he is but I have had conversations with him when he was recruiting my daughter. There is your brag) clearly stated what he thought and it was counter to the press release that Caliklines posted.

Look this is the last time I actually give you a somewhat nice response. From here on out it is hellfire.

Impressive work by the families, coaches, club and most importantly the girls. More proof that there are many, many paths to ones goals. Thanks for sharing. Very impressive indeed.

The subsidy comment is actually relevant.
Very relevant. With the advent of the DA is anyone really going to look at ECNL? I hope so.
I think what MAP and NG are saying is truth about most things.
You are in fact bank rolling the elites if your daughter is in a B or C team at u14 or above.
It is your job to get your kid on the right team for the right exposure. I know this goes against what coaches and clubs say and believe me the truth hurts but it's a fact.
Both @MakeAPlay and NG are very open about the fact that their daughters were not "A team" until later. Both are also open about the fact that they had to take a very active approach to finding the right fit and team for their girls- I appreciate that

Here we go again, can you just shut the hell up? Sea hag. No one gives a shit how many posts you have belittling people who's daughter isn't playing D1, so go FOAD. Have a nice day. C, BTW, how is HRC doing as a civilian?

I have heard this over and over again and I agree with a clause that people don't talk about too often.
I think if you have a YNT player then I agree it doesn't matter where they play. If you have a special player it doesn't matter.
If you have what the other 99 percent of us have putting your daughter on a high profile winning team becomes a way to get them showcased.
Let's face it- sometimes just being in the right spot on the right team gets a look.

I am not sure about the club part of the equation. For the club part to hold water, look at history, such as what has happened with other teams. If you see that kids are always moving on to play college, then you might be able to say that the club is doing its part. Oddly enough, many girls that played with my DD played at Legends, where many were told that they didn't have what it takes to make it on their A team. I have said it before, but the most notable girl that was shunned by JH will be playing at the Naval Academy next year.

I think that my hat goes off to SC Blues for 2017 girls. Not only will their ECNL team be attending college, but many of the girls on the B team will also be moving on to college! So, all of the big box stores out there, ECNL and dare I include DA, how goes the college commit thing, not just with the A team, but what about your other teams?

Glad you brought this up. Surf and Blues put out a consistent product and a B team at those clubs is different than one at another. Coaches see that I think.

I think I can probably handle personal attacks from an anonymous douche, whom I will clearly never meet - and I could care less about. This is nothing but a passing amusement.

But, Mr. Douche, I am not a Legends parents. My daughter plays for the top team in her club, it just happens to be a non ECNL / non DA club. It also happens to very high performing, and the girls are attracting plenty of attention from colleges. The real cool aid, is that the clubs anointed by these leagues are the only path - and that every girl who is not knocking on the door of the national team pools, doesn't have a path to enjoy the sport they love at the next level.

The small minded, binary, thinkers such as yourself maybe speak to 1/2 of 1%. (e.g. either they play for the Blues, or they should stop paying to play altogether.) Go build that shrine to you daughter in the living room so you can continue to live vicariously. The rest of us living in the real world will be just fine without you.

And btw - who the F gives a rat's ass how many posts you have? That either means you have been a Douche for a longer time, or have become more and more Douchy as things went along. Either way, congrats: I award you the king D award. You've earned it.

I know it's hard to tell, but the douchebag is female. I know it's hard to believe a woman would behave this way. If someone has to tell you what they got they ain't got much. Right on.

What kinds of sushi did Silver Lakes have?

Just rolls...California Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, Dynamite Roll, and for the east coast colleges coaches in attendance, Philadelphia Roll. (No cheesesteak, no tastykakes, no scrapple...just some salmon and cream cheese.) And quite delicious.

And some broad leaf Dominican corojo for the cigar rolling station.

Ha ha very funny toolbot. Keep living in your silly little world at your silly little club doing the same silly things. Good luck with all of the "attention" that your silly little team has been attracting. I've heard that one before. No need to live vicariously through my player. The shrine in the den has more than just her awards in them, this isn't your household. No worries. Keep on trucking with your club. Many players better than your daughter have fell by the side of the road on this journey douche bag. I would say good luck but I wouldn't really mean it. So continue to circle jerk with the Legends crowd.

By silly little things, I assume you mean enjoying quality time with my DD, watching her play the sport she loves, and experiencing her growth as a player and a person as she transitions to play soccer in college (and prepare for life)?

Fall by the road? You are really hopelessly lost aren't you? Fall by the road from what? The downside of which you speak does not exist - and only a spectacularly pathetic and myopic worldview would see it differently. (In 20 years, when you are shambling around the bus station muttering 'your daughters suck at soccer' over and over again, stuck in time - sort of like still being on this forum, - I promise to toss you a quarter.)

Given the gender revelation, I believe it appropriate to change your moniker from DB to DC. Enjoy!

Actually it is since we have not contacted any schools yet. Wait until next year when we begin the "process"! :)

For the top players the "process" would have already begun. Is your older daughter playing D1? Is she actually playing or simply on the team? Is the team a top 25 team? Just curious. You seem like you don't know that much about the process and/or you are a bot.
