We finished up our regular season this weekend and despite a sub-optimal performance by Mr. Culpepper and the receiving corps, the Piranha coasted to a 29-22 victory over the White Buffalo courtesy of Mr. Smith, Mr. Jones and the Carolina defense. That swept the series and brought the season to a close with a three-game winnning streak that coincided rather nicely with two, four, and three game losing streaks on the part of other playoff contenders for a comfortable 8-5-1 third-place finish with a game-and-a-half to spare.
Not bad for a team that started 1-4. The path to the championship is a daunting one through a 12-2 juggernaut and a solid 10-3-1 squad, but at least I’m still in the hunt.
