    See? They are automatically qualified for 2nd division and your team had to work super hard just to remain in 3rd. What's wrong?

      Sliced and diced? Not even close. They did win the most games in maple, but seriously, a 1-0 win over FC United and Blazers is "slicing and dicing"? Maybe you meant the "trouncing" they gave to Abbey Villa? Oh, wait... that was only 2-1. Well, how about how they crushed the Vikings? Hmm... that was only 4-3. Even the Aztec game was only 2-1.

      Do they deserve the #1 ranking? probably not. There are plenty of teams that could have easily been in that spot (NEFC, MPS Bulldogs, Aztecs).

        The seeds seem, by and large, to have been based on MAPLE and NEP standings from the fall. Here are the MAPLE Blue standings, with teams outside MA removed:

        1. Hammer FC B
        2. SF Vikings N
        3. FC Blazers O
        4. FC United P
        5. Abbey Villa SC R Barcelona
        6. Valeo FC W
        7. CSU T Dalglish

        And here are the NEP Premiership standings, again with teams outside MA removed.

        1. MASS PREMIER SOCCER MPS BULLDOGS ELITE
        2. AZTEC SOCCER U13 BOYS - WINTERTON
        3. NEFC ELITE U13 BOYS
        4. WESTERN UNITED PIONEERS FC WUP RED 00/01
        5. SCORPIONS BU13 ELITE
        6. FC STARS OF MASSACHUSETTS CENTRAL UNITED 00/01
        7. FC BOLTS CELTIC BOLTS BU13 GREEN

        So the first-place MA team from MAPLE got the first seed, the first-place MA team from NEP got the second seed, the second-place MA teams from MAPLE and NEP got the third and fourth seeds, the third-place teams got the fifth and sixth seeds, and so on. Once they were through the top divisions, they went through the second divisions. There were some minor tweaks, but that explains most of the seeding.

            And why would that be ironic?


            Let me guess, you heard some big boys use that word, so you are trying it out now, yes?

              It's just a matter of time before they are knocked out of that spot. Just sayin. Maybe they will at least get to semi finals this year.

                Maybe you are right. And when that happens one will have a reason for all these sarcastic comments. Until then it's baseless, jelous bashing

                  I think you mean envy, it's not jealousy.

                    13. FC Stars

                    17. Liverpool FSC
                    18. MPS
                    19. MPS
                    20. Benfica
                    21. FC Greater Boston
                    22. MPS
                    23. MPS
                    24. North Shore United
                    25. MPS


                    Some very strong teams. Should be an interesting tournament. I think there are at least 7 or 8 teams that have a legitimate shot at taking home the hardware.

                    Let the debate begin.

                    Apparently MPS didn't have 7 more teams to fill out the field.
                    Vikings lost twice today at NEFC tourney. Guess they really didn't deserve such a high ranking. NEFC and Blazers looked good though.

                      Hammer lost to the Vikings 2-0. I guess they don't deserve their high ranking.

                        No they don't, but it will all balance out after the round robin.

                            Is this the same Blazer team that played at the NEFC tournament? Did they bring in guest players for that tournament?
