Just to throw out my 2 cents, since this bothers me a little each time i see "rather painful truth" reposted..
1023 DID balance in QF3 with you .. and everyone was on their feet screaming for the double triple... then the power went off for the end of match.. and the ball wedged between the two of you pushed you off the balance making the triple not count. So, I'm not sure I agree with your "rather painful truth"
We balanced 4 times in Detroit without the stinger, we balanced on several practice fields, and had the ball not been wedged between you two, we would have balanced at states.
We enjoyed playing with you at states, and look forward to seeing you at upcoming events. Maybe we will have a chance to retry that balance again.
