    I'll accept that I'm being a bit harsh. As your immediately preceding post pointed out, they did allow the earlier model to lead to questions that they then explored. That is a decent methodology. So, credit to them for trying to let the data tell a story and following the story the data tells.

    Didn't want to look like a dork? That ship sailed a long time ago for me. :) You've just got to embrace it, man. EmbratDo?

    You guys are way off topic. Can we please get back to talking about grammar?

    Yes, yes. I much more like talking about grammar and how the English language came to be the way it is today. It's much more interesting than some stupid sport where you fall on the ground and roll around in pain for no other reason than to get another player ejected from the game.

    SF writer H Beam Piper once described English as the result of Norman knights trying to pick up Anglo-Saxon barmaids.

    I don't believe he ever wrote anything about diving, embellishment, or relationship and/or differences between the two.

    Chalk another on up to a hammy issue. It's getting old.

    ...Also, I know he is a work in progress, but he didn't look great in the U20 matches. There were more exciting players playing in Dallas with the Academy. Granted, they are playing against different quality teams.

    I found this link on the MLS website for all you who like to mix metaphors/memes: The MLS version of Game of Thrones.

    I guess the next thing to look out for is the MLS version of Star Wars and the MLS Version of Star Trek......

    I'm curious to see how the youth clubs react to this. In an ideal world, all the top players from those clubs come to this tryout. I'm pessimistic of this actually happening as clubs here aren't really for player development in the long run.

    Still, if this is done even somewhat properly, this is a great step to build a club model with RSL.
