Agreed. Denver have shown a very strong committment to winning the USAFL Division 1 National Championship. In regards to the Revos, the best team in the USAFL contributed 3 players, the same as BWE, San Diego, Philly, and GG, and way behind MN.

That is a misleading statement Chris. To be on the Revolution you have to put up your hand and commit to the money it takes to play. To say that the Rev's take the best players available is incorrect. The Rev's take the best players that can pay for it.. If we ever had the very best players on the Rev's we might actually win the IC. But thats not the way it is. So to say that the best team in the country could only manage 3 players is misleading. If money was out of the equation there would be a lot more talent to pull from.

True. But money affects players from all clubs. It certainly affected who put their hand up at the Eagles, and I'm sure it did at Philly, GG, SD, etc. It probably affected MN more than the other clubs.

But thats the point. Because you raise your hand and go thru the process, pay the money and make the squad does not mean you are the best American in the country. It means your the best American that went thru the process, paid the money and made the squad.

Not taking anything away from any Rev, just stating that we have never taken the best 24 Americans to play in the IC.

Hard to say. The tryout process is very taxing in both cost and time. It is very difficult to committ to all the mandatory tryouts. Speaking for Denver we only had 3 tryout. We have some outstanding Americans. I see 5 that should have tried out and did not. 3 of those players in my opinion would have been starters for the Revolution. So if you have 5 from Denver not even trying out (we actually would have probably 8 or more but in my opion 5 with a real shot) what other clubs have the same issues. If you multiply that across the board for all teams my GUESS is there are at least 60+ good Americans not even trying out.
