'Very tough breaks' Indeed! We all know that Beatty-Hammond is a great team but must you constantly denigrate the performance of Team #1? You make our victory (we allied with Teams #74 and #49) sound like a complete fluke! Didn't you notice that, in match #1 we went ONE-ON-ONE against Hammond and completely shut them out? (True, our ally #74 did all the scoring but we could have easily broken off the defense and raced for the ramp had it been necessary those last few seconds) Do you know how hard it is to shut out a team like Beatty-Hammond? And the match #2 where their partner got 'lifted off the bar' well, you neglected to say that Team #1 was knocked down, laying on their side when they picked themselves up, knocked Team #201 off the bar, and hoisted themselves up in the final seconds only to loose power and droop before they could complete their hang; either way you look at it HAMMOND WON THAT MATCH: IT CAN'T BE CITED AS ONE OF THE QUIRKS OF FATE THAT LED TO THEIR DEMISE! And in the final, decisive, match we hit the ramp's side rail and tipped ourselves over (leaving a two-on-one situation against our alliance) yet still managed to win.Trust ME, Team Hammond did not fade away at Chicago: they had a great alliance partner in Team #201 but still went down swinging in three hard-fought matches.
