We're excited but right now it feels a bit like a guy winning a golf tournament because the runner up missed a 6 inch putt. Meaning right now I don't think a lot of fans believe, truly believe, this team can make it to the GC.
Regardless, the fans will be eagerly tuning in during the playoffs in the hopes that the Cats can pull off the upset during the playoffs as we will most likely be the underdogs..
And what better way to win than to beat the heavily favored enemy? :thup:
It just makes the meat taste that much sweeter. 8)
We have been hit hard by injuries lately on both Offense and defense.
I expect Obie to be airlifting players in constantly.
Since we have clinched and moving up seems almost impossible ,we have time to try some of these new players and see if they can help over the next 3 games.
Obie is really going to have to work his magic!
Just to give you a bit of perspective, I and millions like me were thoroughly happy and jubilant for the runners up to erroneously field 13 players on the last play.
Making the playoffs does not say much for the team. Only two teams get eliminated in the long exhibition season, then you win three games and they give you the cup. Playoffs should be reduced with only the good teams invovled. Seems silly that a team with a less than 500 record can be playing in playoffs.
You're missing the point Defense. Tbink bow much of an embarrasement it is missing the playoffs is in a league where 6 out of 8 make the playoffs compared with a league where roughly half don't make it. I'm no math major but I can figure out what pressure is then. And it sure isn't the league where half make it.
Championships won, same math pressure in an 8 team league. Pressure is on a teamin an 8 team league to win one every 8 years, in a 30 team league, no pressure, just win every 30 years.
