Best of luck to Waukegan in Peoria, I hope they win. But wow - how about having some class on this blog. Especially from the writer. While Dundee-Crown will lose to Waukegan. I think 40 points is a stretch and they just knocked off a powerful team. Enjoy the tournament and win the whole thing, but do it with more class than this site.
You are objecting to a comment made before the game that suggested a team (Dundee-Crown) would be non-competitive, after the game was played and that team (Dundee-Crown) was something even less than non-competitive.
How much more objective can you can get than to say the game is going to be a slaughter, and then have the game be played and it turns out to be a slaughter.
Would you have prefered a picture be painted suggesting that Dundee-Crown had a chance? It had zero chance of being even remotely close.Saying that D-C had any kind of chance of being within striking distance before the game would have been stupid. Nobody believed that.

40 points was NOT a stretch. Could have been or 60 if Ashlaw had wanted to pour it on. This was a squash game from the moment D-C beat Neuqua Valley.
It's not a matter of class. It's a matter of lack of objectivity from a professional journalist.
