…a twist on an old quote.
Last night we played our final game of the Summer 2007 season, against the Pints in what we called “The Loser’s Jock-Strap Cup”. It was a consolation game as both of our teams were knocked out of the first round of the Bronze playoffs.
The consolation games this season didn’t mean much more than an extra game of hockey. But, we decided to spice things up a bit and introduce a new trophy for the league:
Monday was the most popular day ever for this blog, with almost 100 visits on just that day. It looks like our playoff elimination created a shockwave around the league and everyone wanted to see what we had to say about it. Yeah, we are just that damn hawt.
I’m sure there are many who were happy to see us get knocked out. We certainly had our detractors this season. But, I’m not bitter about our loss or the criticism we constantly faced as a team. It’s why the game is played – sometimes you lose.
After our elimination, a bunch of us Hogs went out and watched the next game – the Flyers vs. the Steelheads – and had a great time. As good as the Puck Hogs are as a hockey team, I think we make even better fans.
