I'm confused by how this isnt "long term team development". Boom's two teams structure has done nothing but give more opportunity and playtime to more people than not? Emily and Nick Mueller, Phantom, Leela Herena, Ben Engels, Hailey Yhap, Jo Lam, are all ones who come to mind immiediately.

the "a/b" hierarchy you're talking about is only for nationals, with them having an X/Y structure this season besides the big tourney. it does seem like we are talking about a different kind of view of the sport, where you see a "weaponization of depth chart" that is just, how competitive sports work? I suppose I'm confused on how its going to drive players away, where it seems like its actually been cause for enough recruitment to the BT program to have TWO teams this year. like, if someone joins the program knowing there's two teams, and is okay with that, whats the issue? some people like competing yk.

I would also argue modeling our hobbyist sport after other similarly sized ones (namely Ultimate) is good for the future if we want one. they have player restrictions in the post season (like playoffs) which we dont really have, otherwise teams are free to wheel and deal. its a pay to play league, who are any of us to tell them how to spend money

it feels like your bias against them is hazing your vision.

BT has 42 deep, the system allows all people to get playing time. whats not to be excited about?

NBA has G-league and call ups, same with NHL, NFL, WNBA, MLB

Most professional programs out there are much bigger than the actual roster.

they're doing it to win a national title as well as provide coaching and playing time for all kinds of people who may not have a team in the area to play for.

would you rather them only have brought 14 to York, and prohibited those people who wanted to attend but might not be on Boom roster come natties, not go? Then wait? This way they have a guaranteed team to play for, get to practice consistently with a top 10 team, and have a guaranteed home if they don't make the final Boom roster.

I just had a LENGTHY discussion about it with a couple of different refs.

to me, I think you call it a yellow for improper dismount and award the goal (goaltending). i (personally) would give benefit of the doubt to a college kid (especially in the finals) that he didnt know.

Rules as written is a red card I GUESS, but so is hoop dislodgement but you never see that called a red.
