Just Wait 'till Next Season!!

Roller hockey playoffs started a few weeks ago. We finished the season 8-2 and in first place, so we got to play the 8th place team for the first game. That was an easy game, 8-0, mercy rule at the end of the second period.

The semi-final game was much tougher, we won 3-2 in a nail biter. It was the kind of game that you love to win, hate to lose. Fortunately for us, we were on the right side of the final score.

So the championship game was this morning. It was our third championship game in the last four seasons, so you would think I wouldn't be too excited, right? But no, every playoff game brings real anticipation. Sure, it's not the NHL, it's just the bronze league at the Northeast Racquetball Club, but still...it gets the blood flowing!

To make a long story short, we lost our championship game today to the Pylons, 6-5. Which was exactly how we started the season, with a 6-5 loss to the Pylons. Such symmetry. Damn symmetry.

So what to do about another loss in the championship game? Easy, blame the refs!
