My dd was looking forward to play go last team today. Noooo! Not surprised though with the way the weather has gone this year.

Think it sucks for the 04's imagine having 3-5 minutes left in one of the boy's finals with the score 0-0 and having the golf cart come on and call the game. Come on Flamefest, 5 minutes, you put them back out there after the delay so why not let them finish? Even if it was tied at the finish they could have gone to penalties without stressing the fields. THAT SUCKS.

I agree DB10, but wouldn't Craig Ranch management have ultimate say on when to cancel? My guess is Flamefest TD is at the mercy of those who own the fields.

Someday we'll tell our soccer grandkids all the stories about the '15 spring season. Not sure they will believe us ;-)

by Sweet_feet99 21/06/15, 01:55 pm

Oh that's worse than ours. PK's would be better than not finishing.

Craig Ranch is usually the first to cancel of all the DFW fields which is weird because you would expect the fields to be pristine. I figured when I saw rain in the forcast that it wouldnt be a fully played tournament. At least we got in some games. Hopefully it was enough for those girls who were using it as a try out to be seen.

Too bad half the games were on 7v7 fields, nothing better than the GK's kicking it 3/4 way down the field and 20 girls trying to fight for it or players taking shots from midfield.

Hard to play kickball on a small field?

huh? 'B' has 3 PPL teams in it other than D'Feet. 'A' may be close depending how motivated D'Feet White are and the number of changes within all the teams. This is the bracket with probably the most roster changes from last year, how they gel this early in the season will probably lead to the winner of the bracket. 'C' is pointing to Sting West and unless they lost players they should have no problem advancing.

I think it looks like this in the playoffs...

D'Feet White
D'Feet Black
Sting West
Sting Harr (Wildcard)

D'Feet Black over Sting West 4-0 (I think West sticks around in the game for a while though)
D'Feet White over Sting Harr 3-1

D'Feet Black over White 3-0

I'm going off got soccer rankings...what are you basing your crazy a$$ picks off of. B looks to be the strongest bracket. #6 vs #11 should be a good show.

Bless your heart If you think FCD White who finished 4th in PPL will give a D1 team who finished the season 15-3-1 a "good show" ...but hey you keep sticking with those rankings. Heck maybe D'Feet are missing 3/4 of their team you never know.

I see D'Feeters beat FCD White 1-0. Anyone care to elaborate on what happen?

I'll humor you just cause it's you.......

Not a lot to elaborate on. Pretty sloppy. Different players in different positions. Probably half the game in their box. Think they had 1 chance in the first minute. You can worry about the score if you want but the game wasn't close at all. Definitely wasn't a "good show" got soccer was as accurate as ever

by PurplePonyPower 21/06/15, 10:16 pm

All part of the plan!

D'Feeters do one thing, long ball. This only works for so long JK. One day they will have to play real soccer. Big Strong Fast Athletic helps though. So, FCD White only lost 1-0 to Black. Are you sure this is not a typo? Nope, I looked, it is the truth. What happened JK, you should have beat them according to your minions 10-0. That FCD White team is not that great. You should be ashamed of yourself JK for that score.

Well, look who crawled out from under his rock.

Finished his weekend of games and decided to show up on this post to add his 2 cents.

Funny - first you claim to have seen "long ball", then you had to look up the score - so which is it? Can't keep your story straight? Were you there or not?

Yep, the game was sloppy - but pretty hard for Feet to play "long ball" on a 3/4 field. Especially hard to play "long ball" when they have FCD White pinned in their own end for most of the game.

by SuperCoach 22/06/15, 08:46 am

That's funny coming from the punt, kick and shove champion Of ppl.

by adufresne 22/06/15, 09:30 am

Flamefest gets a longer thread than Supercopa. That's pretty funny. Nice to see all eyes are still on D'Feeters. You guys have fun with this.

Was it just me, or did anyone else happen to notice on the GotSoccer page for schedules/results that when they cropped the Flamefest logo at the top of the page that it actually says "LAMEST"?

sounds about right

by Guest 22/06/15, 10:29 am

I'm not up to par on what's going on but I slightly interpret from the little that I read, the forum community is trying to ridicule Feeters for a low scoring victory in a weak tournament....am I correct? Not on some "more competitive than thou" ish but when PPL specifics are involved I feel lost.
Anyhow, what wrong with playing in a tournament as such when JK has new players he is evaluating and getting acclimated to his style of play? Expectations are high this summer aren't they?

Lamefest is supercopa for some but for most teams it is that last chance to evaluate talent, both current and prospective, before July 1. So it has its place. Hopefully most teams got that opportunity before it was cancelled.

I had no complaints that my DD wasn't playing in a tournament on small fields, with shortened halves, with mandatory water breaks* on overcast and sub 90 degree days, and that was eventually cut short because of more NTX rain. Shocked

*I am in favor of water breaks on hot sunny days.

by Sweet_feet99 22/06/15, 11:55 am

Idk bout flamefest but at Kyle Owen's the Water breaks were a waste of playing time.

by Guest 22/06/15, 02:24 pm

They sure were a waste....
So is post July 1st gonna be a down time for soccer? Some breaks and vacationing or are there any tournaments in the pure heat?

by upper95 22/06/15, 03:12 pm

Everything slows down for a couple of weeks except for the new 05 select teams entering tournaments, e.g., King Tut, to firm up or earn seedings for the LH U11 QT. Everyone else will take a break then ramp up for season or D3 (now D2 tongue

) challenges.

Once you get your money. Leave the kids alone and let them rest and be kids. Coaches, you will have plenty of time to work with them and get them prepared.
