Re: The Stereotyping of Successful Teams
No, no, I have the best Miss Daisy is awesome story! Back in Philadelphia 2010, we were the captains of the fourth alliance. Of course, daisy and Moe were on the first. When the semi finals rolled around, we were up against the best striker and full field shooter in that alliance. We were probably the one alliance there that could challenge the eventual champions for the crown. We were heartbroken when our defender sat motionless for a round with a broken crio. We called our time out but couldn't get them fixed in time.
To ensure the competition would be fair, Miss Daisy called their time out. Since they were up a match and this is technically illegal the myth (may be true) on our team is that they threatened to sit still a match with our partner off the field and the refs ended up letting them call the back to back time out.
In the end we lost 8-7 due to a silly penalty about our side panel detaching. But what I will always take away from that regional is how much of a class act Miss Daisy is. It was really the proof to watch them win rca then cca that same year.
341 is the team that, through their actions, taught me the meaning of gracious professionalism.
