Yes, the teams that don't make Classic League go back to their other leagues.

I have a question regarding the bottom teams of the Challenge tourney. Are they sent back to their leagues?

Thanks, finsih1, however I am not with TFC, I just think they are the better team in the tournament.

How is Man White the favorite, they finished 15 points behind TFC in Plano last year?

after seeing them both play in the carey tournament I'd say Manchester

"IF" you base it on the Carey shouldn't TXL 99 Gold be the favorite? They went 1-1-1 while TFC went 1-0-2, Manchester went 0-3 and FCD Black went 0-2-1

I think it is a toss up and don't think you can pick a clear favorite.

Weagle, are you saying there is no clear favorite between TFC and Man White or no real difference between the teams in the tourney?

I don't think any of the teams can be considered a favorite because they all play in different leagues. The only thing we have to go on is tournament results and it was made clear those results don't count due to guest players and/or players missing because of vacations etc....I say ANY of the teams in this tourney are capable of winning it.

I agree that any team can win any tourney. Look at what happened to the #1 seed in the state cup this year. They were eliminated by the #6 seed. It can happen. I don't believe all the challenge teams are equal and there are favorites. We'll know next week...

You were right that the teams were not equal but it looks like the APL was the much stronger league.

Looks like Manchester got an invite to D3, what are the chances more teams are invited to move up?

Just the chatter I heard in and around the fields this weekend. I'm not sure what team they replaced or if it's even true. If it is, it makes me wonder if there are other teams that may be giving up their bye.

Why would you think a challenge team would get disqualified? The talk surrounded a team not keeping their D2 bye, it had nothing to do with the challenge teams.

Solar Blue? What's happened to them?

just throwing that out there!

seems like a strange comment to just throw out there. It sort of implies that they may have done something wrong.
