Tigres

Valid points, if you are in the know. I have heard that they also added a couple of good players. I guess my point is that the usual big dawgs will not sneak up on the Solar squad. Solar will be up for any match with the Texans, and definitely anything related to Andromeda. But it is difficult to get up for every team every week. At some point there will be a team with a ton of heart that can overcome all the odds and defeat a team that is on a roll... I'm just looking for clean soccer and little or no nonsense from the sidelines. A capable referee is a plus.
Full disclosure: I have a son on the 98 Solar squad.

Do not know if they added defense, but I would not want to play a hungry Tigres team. We shall see...

I don't have the GF or GA from the end of last season, but I seem to recall that Tigres was right up there in GF but was around 10-12 in GA. Considering they will be playing tougher competition all season, I hope they added some D. I know a few players on Tigres and was told by the parents that they were looking to upgrade D. I haven't seen them since the Memorial Day tournament, when they were still trying out quite a few kids, so I don't know how it all shook out.
