For first time in a while, the “Tomcat Algorithm” was doubted last night. It seemed like David vs Goliath. I use this reference because, on paper, David would be a fitting name for these Tomcats, the hard working, good guys we all strive to be like, vs. Terrorliath, the big bullies, looking to crush the little guys. However, not to get religious on you, but this story did not turn out like it did in the bible. Some lopsided games proved very frustrating for Team David. Tempers boiled over a few times, mostly among teammates; nothing to be concerned about, just remember we are all here for a good time.
Terrorliath took both games 13-7 and 11-8. It was an unreal display of speed, precision passing, and teamwork.
Soupy, Chevy, and Shack were under constant pressure on D in the first game by the relentless forecheck of Matador and Bullwinkle. “I can’t keep up with these guys” stated Soupy, to which Shack replied, “you’ve got 20 years on Bullwinkle, and 20 smokes a day on Matty, how can you not keep up?!!” Soupy claimed afterwards that he is simply tanking his draft order in preparation for the upcoming Tomcat Tourney, which might be true, because he has been invisible for weeks out there!
Speaking of the Tomcat Tourney, numbers are looking very good, currently at 26 guys, with a lot of young talent committed so far! We would still like to get a couple more guys to round out the teams. This may be the most competitive tournament ever. Rumour has it a couple Eagles will be returning after a 2 year absence!
A couple guys are going to be coming out to showcase in the next few weeks, so captains be on the lookout for that.
Great to see some of tomcats staying a little later to have a few and share some laughs. Hoping for a solid turnout next week, and some more good times on stage afterwards, as that is what it’s all about!
Until next time, Enjoy Guys!
