Nationals, here we come!

Saturday afternoon, October 8th, Flaming Moe secured it's spot at the 2006 Club Championships in Sarasota, FL. This team, that I am so proud to be a part of, and that has been waiting a long, long time to get this far, dominated with a performance that would have taken any opponent to their knees. It was inspiring. It was assuring. It was a lot of fun!

Sunday afternoon we lost the finals to CLX, and taken off of our high horse, lost the 2/3 game to Mr. Briefcase (who was coming off of their 'game-to-go' against ICE).

Saturday Moe wanted to win that game more than any game they'd ever played, and it was awesome. Sunday we played well, but couldn't match CLX powerhouse nor the energy of Briefcase after their succesant wins. We ended up disapointed when all was said and done.

Before leaving on Sunday, Jeff (Moe #20) commented on this disapointment and how, even after attaining our #1, most important, longest standing goal, we were left wanting more and knowing that we could, and will do better. What a great sign for this first-time, Nationals-bound team!

Congratulations Moe!
