    Did your high school offer anatomy and physiology classes?

    Both Rhine's energy level, and Moor's experience/development can be improved by subbing in Moor-for-Rhine in latter stages of remaining matches where FCD works with a lead.

    Well, I learned most of it in elementary school, during sex ed. Not sure why you guys had to wait until high school to figure this stuff out...

    Because sex ed at our schools didn't happen. "The devil's work" or something. And yes, it was public school.

    God bless East Texas?

    I think anatomy was offered as an AP class in Arlington. Or maybe it was just "Biology II".

    Because the bible thumpers in Central Florida guaranteed that I'd never get any kind of formalized sex education from my public school. So I learned it all on the playground......boy, did I believe in some stupid stuff when I was a teenager. Probably explains my amazing success with girls at that age.

    Granted Rhine made a mistake last night that may have resulted in a goal, but alot of other defenders made mistakes last night that (for the grace of LA's poor shooting and Scott Garlick) did not result in a goal.

    I guarantee that if you had Eddie Pope playing left or right defensive back for FCD the resulting chances for the Galaxay would have been the same.

    The problem with FCD last night was not defense - it was offense and not being able to respond to the pressure defense from LA when they wanted to control the game.

    Look at the stats - LA had a huge advantage in shots and shots on goal. This is a result of FCD being unable to hold the ball in attack in the midfield and foward areas in LA's half of the field.

    Moor is not as good as Rhine on the edge. Moor is a good central defender, he doesn't compete now as a outside back. If you put Moor out there other teams will trap and exploit him. Remeber the NE when they employed this startegy and got numerous turnovers from Moor ?(one of which I distinctly remember resulting in a goal). Rhine has a higher work rate and is faster.

    I think Rhine career is following a similar path to that of Chrissy Albright and he has turned out to be one of the better outside backs in the league.

    We have no choice but to play Rhine. He is learning and will make some mistakes, but we need his speed for defense and his work rate for the attack.
    How soon for some of you to have forgotten that he has assisted on and scored a few important goals in the open cup and this regular season.

    FCD fans should be glad we have him.

    Good luck Bobby!

    I just started throwing things around in anger at the attempt to meaningfully discuss the inner workings of a game that we are insanely addicted to.

    I WANT WHEELS OFF DAMMIT!

    Why not? Its not like he's going to actually marry her or anything. She's so emotionally instable, I don't think she could handle being dumped by "the youngest one in curls". You could be her shoulder to cry on, and then her bed to sleep in.

    Rhine comments... not trying to convince you of anything just throwing out info.

    this season...

    Any discussion of Rhine's poor D must take into account his offense that is better in pure number than Albright (a "great" outside backs who gets call ups).

    And it's too late now to make a change for the playoffs.

    For the future....

    1. Moor is not an outside back. He can do it, but his place in the future is center back (or maybe even holding mid I say).

    2. You must take into account what Rhine brings off the field in terms of leadership, work rate, training ground habits, and team cohesion. (same as Ted Eck) There is a reason why Rhine has been with one team for his entire career despite only average stats and limited success.

    3. Even if Rhine losses the RB job, which I would not count on unless FCD goes and gets a specific RB this off season, he still would have a place on the team because he can come off the bench in four or five positions and various tactical situations.

    4. He is cheap on the cap.
