We watched Argus almost pull out a miracle over Lism as they like to be called.
We watched the Terrors destroy Cobra Kai. So much for world domination.
We were loose, we were limber, we were ready to beat the Terrors for the first time.
We did, taking them down in two frames.
Then it was time for the defending champs. It could have been a matchup of the last two champs but instead it was Rod Time.
Unfortunately, we were out quicker than the radio edit of "Infatuation." We weren't a match for the dominating play of the champs. We were smoked.
We drowned our sorrows in team name awards and pizza.
Rod Playoff MVP Jim holds the team trophy proudly. He came up with the team name so he is the lucky one who gets to display the hardware in his apartment. Congratuations Jim!
Balgavy continues the sulk even after four slices of delicious pizza.

Still no word from the Terrors yet.
Last season, we went 5-7. This one, we went 5-3 and made it to the finals. We finally got the Terrors monkey off of our backs. Now, we know what task awaits. Boccelism. They have taken us out in each of the last two playoffs. We can beat them even if it takes 23 team conferences per frame. We had the crowd on our side against them but we were so bad that we couldn't get them fully behind us to make a difference. Next season, the championship will be ours. At the very least, some good pizza can be ours.
UPDATE
Youthlarge's take on the day's events.

Did Jim remember to do push-ups before the finals?
No. That must be why we lost! Next time we should demand a 10-minute break so we can all do superstitious stuff and throw our opponents off their game.
I'm only going to play bocce wearing flip flops...even in the WINTER.
Thanks for a great season Rods! Let's kick some U-LISM ass this Fall. I wonder which day they are playing. I wonder which day WE'RE playing... I definitely want to play on the same day as Argus.
