if any club other than cesa would have won 5 state cups, finished runner up in 4 others, it would be a circus on here. there would be "insert coach's name here from cufc...for president" campaigns for the next 6 months. no other club won more than 1 state cup and that is why the message board is quiet.




I agree. On another thread I published the mathematical expectations regarding finalists and champions so that it could be understood just what CESA achieved as a club. They are to be congratulated.

At the same time, qualitatively, there appears to me to be a decreasing gap between the clubs -- as would be expected for the by far two largest clubs in the state. It will be interesting to see if CESA can beat the "law of averages" and increase their competitive acceleration or whether CUFC will continue to make strides and grow ever more competitive with CESA.
