Communiqués de Presse

For the first time in living memory (note: this reporter does not remember what he had for lunch...) Exceleration did not make the play-offs. A disappointing final game, saw them dominate the opponent, but lose 2-1. While the result did not matter, it summed up the season - close but not enough.
The coach took the full blame saying "The boys worked hard, I just didn't give them the right game plan"
The captain also took full blame saying "When the game or season is close, I need to do a better job out there"
The goalie took everything onto his shoulders "I let that one goal in 2 games back, if I had stopped that shot and a few other weak ones, we would have been challenging in the play offs"
The janitor also piped in saying "I knew I should have polished the railings twice instead of once, I was lazy, next year I will cut my sleep down to 2.75 hours per night, instead of the 3.1 I was getting this year - little things add up"
In fact, even the visiting coach took full blame "We creamed them, we're better, they suck"
In this reporter's option, the team did it's best, maybe if I had reported better during the season, things would have turned out better.
