Great game, but I don’t think it was the best time for them to start advertising a championship run that involved one of the most remarkable mid-season turnarounds ever, as they are pitching a season that would be so short, this team wouldn’t even be able to consider turning it around...

That BC team was honestly incredible to watch as was the Swagsville D.

Honestly I didn't want either team to lose that cup, but I kinda hoped Doug Brown got one before he retired
