In my opinion, Solar, FCD premier and FCD red should be top 3, then DTS, FWFC, Titans (SaoPaulo), Texans Gall in the next level; Wizards, FCD Juniors and Figo completing the "true" D1. No particular order in any of the 3 levels....

did you know that DTS lost to solar blue 1-4 and solar blue lost to Gall 0-6 and Gall won the Carey tournament in final over Solar Red?

That was 2 months ago, and a month later they got shot-out by Solar in the finals of the ASG Adidas.... DTS has been consistent for almost 2 years and should still be a top 5 team. Densk/Gall?... 5-10 in my opinion.

u

there you go. boys at this age have ups and downs. inconstency is expected. I don't take 1-4 loss as "consistent". i admit DTS is a good team. but i am not sure they have been consistent -- they havne't won atourney yet this summer if i remember correctly.

You can say every team in the top 5 is inconsistent and this can be attributed to teams adding new players this summer in preparation for select. DTS is in the top 5. No doubt.

DTS hasn't won a tournament this Summer aside from Copa ESPN in which Manchester United participated. All other tourneys this Summer DTS 01 has either made it to Finals or Semis. How is that not consistent? No worries for DTS because from what I heard they have picked up a top player from Sao Paolo SC and Wizards 01.

Good for DTS 01. Didn't that top player from Sao Paolo SC 01 quit on the team when they played in the Guts and Glory tournament in The Colony last month? Not because he thought he was better, but because his dad couldn't stomach any more of Sao Paolo's parents and kids' bad attitude.
Heck, they made it to the Finals because of that child, and without him DTS 02 waxed that SP 01 team pretty good.
I was there with my brother-in-law watching the game after our FCD 01s lost to Sao Paolo.
Come to think of it, who in the heck will those little dudes from the DTS 02s play this upcoming season seeing that all of their competition's going to be select?
Dynamo? Odessey? Those are the only candidates that I can see stepping up to the plate.

OK now I get it
cowpukesfan, SPSC01 RED did NOT play Guts and Glory; that was the short lived SPSC'01 WHITE team. SPSC'01 RED is now TITANS'01 WEST.

Ha! He got ya' there Cowpukes fan! LOL.

@futboleros, thanks for clearing that up. Geez! That White team was something else, wow! They were very vulgar. Good luck with your new team. Now that I've moved from Kilgore to GP, I can see some more of these games. I have tons of friends with kids on various teams. Take care.

1. you only know of 2 Solar teams that would be in top 30? seems like that talent pool ought to yield a 3rd team.
2. Who are top FCD teams after top 3 (premier, Bazan, Waters) that can make Classic?
3. Any teams you think should be on the top 30 list that aren't? Maybe some from CAL?

1. I don't know a ton about Solar, but it seems to me they focus more on quality rather than quantity. Aside from Red and Blue (Partain), what other teams are there? Gold? I heard they were struggling to field a team based on their parents' comments.
2. There are a bunch of potential 11-30 FCD teams. At least six of them are in King Tut so we'll see which have signed the players and come together well enough to qualify after next weekend. My guess is 7 or 8 FCD teams will end up somewhere in classic league including the ones you mentioned above.
3. Out of CAL, the only team that wasn't mentioned (Wizards and Boca were on the list) is the NTX Strikers, but they haven't played anything lately so we'll have to wait to see how they do in King Tut as well.

Who's missing? There are always a couple surprises come qualifying. Three weeks to go!

I was surprised to see the Strikers in the Bronze group in King Tut. Did they lose key players?

What do you mean? Based on their performance this year, that's where they belong. Besides, that's no easy bracket. I imagine Andro will take it going away with the two FCD teams and Strikers duking it out for positions 2 - 4 with TFC Blue pulling up the rear. This bracket looks like the silver and the silver seems to have generally weaker teams with Liverpool Keegan and FCD West the best two out of the bunch.

OK here's everyone's gotsoccer pages. Hopefully I have the FCD teams straight.

Jack ... the problem with the gotsoccer rankings is that half these teams's rosters don't even come close to resembling the teams that played in leagues and tournaments several months ago. But I suppose that's why the Classic folks use King Tut to help them do their ranking.

In any event, good luck to all this weekend!

PS There's a thread specifically about the 01 King Tut teams. Head over there to provide predictions. Predictions page link

You're right though ... it looks like putting Andro in Bronze might be the most egregious error ... assuming that team hasn't been decimated.

They just took the King Tut schedule page down. I wonder if they're reworking the brackets or just a technical issue.

DTS will be top team this season!

Oh yeah I remember seeing him, nobody could stop him. I think he's the one that scored all the goals. Way to go DTS! It's alright DTS even without this "12" year old you will be one of the top teams this upcoming season.

Ojo, you seem a bit bothered that they asked your friends bb & not yours. It's OK, maybe you will get the invite next tournament.

Hahaha wrong againg, no bb on that bracket (U10 nor U13) why were you asking for facts if you get offended? I am not saying it was the team's fault... go and ask you coach why he invited the bb if he knew he was over the 12.

Ojo,

I am the one who was asking for facts so please give me some detailed ones. We have never used over aged players nor do we need to. We have been doing just fine with the same core group of boys. If you want to insinuate anything else then you need to provide some very detailed specifics. (who, what, when, where, how & WHY). Also, if you are so confident in what you are saying then why did you originally post this nonsense under the screen name "jlviera" and then delete it to repost it under Ojo? Yes, I saw the original before it was deleted. Since you want to post some facts, please post the facts behind this screen name change.

I am sure OJOke is trying stir things up right b4 the qualifying tournament.

The best you can do is change the screen name reference from "jlviera" to "scrdad"? Just pitiful.
