We didn't go, because we were plagued by inconsistency.
I told everyone when we were going down, "We just need a little luck, and we'll do fine." We got TONS of luck, but unfortunately it was all bad.
We had a blast, had a few really fun matches, got the chance to hang out with friends new and old. It was a GREAT competition.
We knew if someone put some faith in us, and drafted us we could pull our weight and make something happen, but
weren't surprised when we didn't make the cut.
But, this year was definitely a learning experience. We came out a little smarter, and a little stronger than before. We had some fun, and excited some kids (who are just DYING for some more Redemption

)
Look for 229 in 2005, we'll be back.
I'm surprised 234 didn't go.
They were in the same boat we were, but had one HELL of a machine. I expected them to complete some great Newton Alliance.
Both times 234, and 229 have been next to each other in the pits, we've both caught some seriously bad luck. CB, we love you baby, but next year for the good of both teams we should probably consider splitting up!
