Our kids are raising money to offset costs for families and coaches to go and play the Vegas Cup in January.

We will be setting up a gofundme page - so you and socceropath can pay for for the counseling services you have received in the last 24 hours

:DWill do!!

This looks like a nice trip (for the parents)   

It will be nice to have your kids play a bunch of West Coast teams for a change....

Ugh....predictions already? I was about to go grab my popcorn and continue reading.

What happened to Factsmatter? Is that the new "guest" on the forum due to account deletion?

I would also like to cash in on those donations to Vegas.

I'm back

 D-2 match up     rush  vs liverpool carragher.......

Can we finally stop hearing how great LP Carragher is on this D1 thread now, watched their second half ahead of our game. Rush handled them easily 4-1, and it wasn't that close. LP could not keep possession and are right where they belong.

So, you know that from watching one half?

I agree. We came early to watch the hype. Lp was out of there league in this one. RUSH dominated the middle of the field in the first half. Lp struggled to make a pass. The lp defense kicked the ball out of bounce 90 % of the time.they were out coached . It was ugly. RUSH looked like a d-1 team liverpool looked like a d-2 team.

5555, sounds like you finally got your prescription cocktail right...you're making sense!

Any updates on scores? Only 4 games reporting so far. An early shout out to Kennington for winning game of the week.

***10 perfect predictions is an all time high.

Factoring in strength of schedule? I thought it'd be fun to see how much of an impact strength of schedule is having over the current standings. I used a simple formula in that I added the aggregate point total of any given teams opponents. The higher the aggregate, the harder the schedule...

TXN South 131
FCD Blue 119
Celtic 118
Wildcatters 116
Fever 114
Tigres 109
Solar McKinney 106
Ayses 94
LP St John 91
TXN Dallas 90
FCD West 89
Rebels 87
Solar Kennington 77
TXN Red 76
FCD ETX 73
FCD Youth 69
LP Owen 67
Elite 65
Allegiance 55
FCD Academy 47

My takeaways -
McKinney and Allegiance have both been accused of being somewhat inconsistent...but McKinney has had the hardest schedule in top 10 and Allegiance the 2nd easiest. Maybe the label is only fair for Allegiance?

Anybody else feel like LP Owen and FCD Youth were higher than expected (they were 4th/5th place before losing this week)? Looks to me like they've benefitted from an easy schedule early (4th/5th easiest).

FCD Academy has had by far the easiest schedule...and they lost against the only top 10 team they've faced?
