Last night's victory in front of a sold out 3 fans, albeit dominating, crushing, and convincing, left little to be overly proud about when the final buzzer sounded.
Much like I imagine the "Head Baby Seal Clubber" does not go home to his wife and kids and brag about his "amazing day" at the shores, or the guy at Red Lobster who grabs the lobsters out of the tank puts "lobster fisherman" on his resume with pride, I do not take much pride in last night's victory.
A win is a win indeed, but we Pubbers must forget about last night and prepare for harder battles ahead. Last night was fun and felt good to our egos, but it was an anomaly and we have much more work to do if we are to capture the coveted prize!!
There were some highlights to the performance last night however that must be recognized:
Jeff was on fire with his jumper and did some serious damage very early to the opponent's will to live and fight.
Brooksie did not object to his new nickname and was slashing, cutting, and scoring at will all game.
TJ to brother Bill was a repeated play all night - and vice versa. You would think these guys grew up together (Never gets old, does it Brooksie?)
Bobby OT's return and performance was inspiring and some in the crowd uttered "GUTSY, Flawless, Yeoman - Better than CATS"
Bants was running the floor like MacArthur, shooting lights out and dishing like TMZ after Charlie Sheen's Hooker-Coke-Porn-Hospital-bash!
Henry, a beautiful sight effortlessly knocking down threes in warm ups like he never left the court, is eyeing the comeback day very closely!
And yours truly setting devastatingly effective picks on my own guys, heading loose balls, playing lackluster D on the only guy who scored all night and turning the ball over repeatedly. ;)
The hollow victory brings us to 5-2 and right on track for the ultimate goal!!!!
But let's focus on the hard battles that await us!!
