Two More To Go

Thank God there's only 2 more games. I'll keep this post short and sweet (well, bitter, actually). We lost. We lost in 4 games. Yup, your read that right. We lost 0-4.

Oh well.

Next up are the champions of the league, our sister team, the Crowe Wildpuckers.

That is all.

Broken Record

We need a win. How many times have I said it? How many more times do I need to say it? I hope not many. We have 3 games left in the season, I'd like to win just one. That's all I'm asking. We started the season shaky and now we're finishing it shaky as well.


Our sister team, the Crowe Wildpuckers have already clinched first place with a record of 12-1, with 3 games left! Way to go Wildpuckers!


So without sounding like a broken record (I know I already do) I decided to find out how to say "We need a win" in different languages. Here's what I found.

English: We need a win!

Chinese: 我们需要一场胜利！

Dutch: We hebben een te winnen!

French: Nous avons besoin d'une victoire!

German: Wir brauchen einen Sieg!

Greek: Χρειαζόμαστε μια νίκη!

Irish: Ní mór dúinn an bua!

Italian: Abbiamo bisogno di una vittoria!

Japanese: 我々は勝利が必要だ！

Russian: Мы должны победить!

Slovak: Potrebujeme vyhrať!

Spanish: Necesitamos una victoria!

Yiddish: מיר דאַרפֿן אַ געווינען!

I used Google Translate to find all of these translations so if you see a mistake, take it up with Google. There are a ton of languages available so I just grabbed a handful.

Come on BarFlies! WE NEED A WIN! 

What a Shocker

Well, we came, we saw, we tried, we lost. Again. I don't know what it is but the Crowe BarFlies just can't seem to catch a break. 


We almost won on a technicality if I hadn't opened my big, dumb mouth. See, in our league, if a player wins 2 games in a night, that player is no longer eligible to play. It was game 7 and Woodie's wanted to put up Bob and Stephen. Stephen had won 2 games that night and I had to tell them. If he had shot one puck they would have had to forfeit that game and we would have won the match. But that's the chicken shit way to win in my book. They put up a different player and won fair and square.


Every game was a fight down to the last point. It was pretty scary when we lost the first 3 games (yeah, we're that good) but we managed to claw our way back and win the next 3. We just couldn't close the deal.


Now we are down to the last three games of the season, and I'm pretty sure we've sealed our fate out of the top 3. 


Next week, we travel over to Cozy Corner to play the Cozy Corner Clusterpucks. Our team never plays that well over there so we'll really need some good luck to help us to a victory on Wednesday.

U-Turn Ahead

Well, it's Wednesday again and again it's time for the Crowe BarFlies to make a 180° turn. Coming off of a 3 game losing streak isn't easy, especially after not playing for a week. 

Including today's match, we have 4 games left in this season. We still have a chance to get into the top 3 (well, the 2nd or 3rd spot). Unfortunately, it's a pretty slim chance.

C'mon BarFlies! We can do this! Okay, enough of the pep talk.

So I've gone back and forth on how to write this blog. At first I liked doing a game by game recap, but after a few matches, it felt like I was saying the same things over and over, regardless of who won. Now, I just kind of ramble on about how we need to win (because I'm awesome like that). I have no clue what tomorrow's (well, probably Friday's) post will look like.

Tonight, we're up against Woodie's Ice House. In the first half of the season they struggled to get enough players to some of their games but it seems now that they're on the comeback. Tonight should be a good match. 

Go BarFlies!
