This is the same ding dong who said Henderson was in "over their head" last week against Stavrou. At what point do you stay out of the prediction business. Henderson would beat this team by 4 or 5 goals, if they were fortunate enough to get that far. You ought to watch more 99 soccer.

P.S. Start...I am one of your biggest fans. Keep up the good work. We will check back on Tuesday to see how you did.

My picks for the final game is the same, but with Henderson winning a close one. Picks for Brackets, Qtr & Semi are different

Well NotGuilty, perhaps if Henderson had played with the other D1 teams in the Gold bracket rather than purposely playing Silver so they can play Solar White he would get a little more respect. To boast that they will win the final 5-0 makes it sound all the lamer!

No question regarding the lack of quality opponents for Henderson. However, the ridiculousness of predicting a Solar White win over them makes no sense and further impugns his credibility.

Semi- Finals

Henderson vs Cosmos
Tx Spirit vs Lonestar

Cosmos could make a game of it against Mustangs. Tx Spirit look pretty darn strong vs Solar Whit and dominated the game! Have not seen lonestar yet!

any prediction here?

Actually, the Texas Spirit mom I spoke to said it was a very even game with it finishing 2-2 at the end of double overtime. Both teams had ample opportinities to finish the game off with Spirit coming back twice from a goal down. Interesting you chose the word "dominated" though as it's not what she said by any means.

Lonestar - 2
TFC White - 1
PLD website has incorrect score posted. Game went to overtime. Both teams battled hard all the away. Lonestar scored on a goalie deflection at the last minute.

Yeah, I will step out there. As previously stated, Startover was on that wacky tobaccy again with the Solar White championship prediction. They are done. It should be Spirit vs. Henderson in the finals with Hendy winning by 3 or 4 goals. Shouldn't be playing here, but they are and should finish as expected. Still a huge underachievement, but you can only beat the teams you choose to play.

"Henderson in the finals with Hendy winning by 3 or 4 goals. Shouldn't be playing here, but they are and should finish as expected. Still a huge underachievement, but you can only beat the teams you choose to play."

Too bad they did not register for the 2000 bracket. Let's all keep it in perspective what Henderson accomplished (not taking anything away from the girls; they can only play were the coach registers the club). There were three D3 teams that stepped up and accepted the challenge. All played in the Gold bracket and all three clubs performed respectable and represented the D3 clubs well.

Girls U11 Gold
Bracket 1
STING 99 WALDRUM
Bracket 2
NTX UNITED 99G
Bracket 3
LIVERPOOL 99G

As previously stated ... Shouldn't it be mandatory that all D1 teams play in the Gold Division? Why should any D1 team be allowed in the Silver Division?

Given Henderson only registered for Silver for a shot at Solar White because of past history (and one of the organizers confirmed they called asking who had registered for what division and had only agreed to enter if they could play in Silver just as in a previous tournament they only entered to try and play Dallas Mustangs FC) it has backfired on them now. Even if they win the Silver division, what is it really worth other than posting on their website (with no mention of Silver) that they won.

Spill the beans ... no disrepect to Solar White (very solid team) but they are a D3 team and Henderson is a D1 team ... Why play down?? What is their history?? Coaches have a grudge??

What a great game between TX Mustangs Henderson and FC Dallas North last night. Mustangs had more possession and chances in the first half and FCD had controlled the second half. FCD keeper made some great saves to keep the game scoreless. The game went into overtime and Mustangs keeper made a great save herself on a breakaway.

Mustangs scored in the first overtime period and it was back and forth from their. Very entertaining game and props to both teams. FCD gave Mustangs more than anyone expected or the Mustangs wanted.

Good luck to all teams playing today.
