I left Philly a couple of Weeks ago for the west coast of Florida. A bit brisk down here but nothing like Philly and today it’s sunny and heading into the 70s.
I report this uninteresting piece of minutia because it reminds of the season as we suffer through the plight of our favorite team. Everything is relative and everything is temporary. As we read the articles from the Connecticut based media and the posts here on The BY, one would think that true doom has befallen us. That no other team in the history of sports has been punished by the gods with injuries and illnesses like this team has had to endure. It’s all $&*@#$&&. With no exception, we have put a team on the floor that had more talent and ability than our opponents. (Paige played in the SC game we were at least equal). The sky is not falling. Our problems on the court were not injury or illness related. Effort and execution are the issues. And as the temperature here in FL returns to the normal slice of heaven, so shall this team.
Last year, we made the FF. This year, with the same, more experienced roster plus CD and Azzi and Dorka, we have an even stronger team. A team that should cut down the nets after the final game in April. No “Hell” here. Just a true slice of Heaven.
