Re: What would you prefer?

I'll take either. That's coming from someone whose idea of a great season is just making the elimination rounds.

Over the course of our brief trouncing in the Palmetto quarterfinals, we got a crash course in what it takes to go further. That involves three teams who are all on the same page, planning and executing well. Even if the first two names greatly upstage the third, I still have yet to see any alliance bring home a banner without all three teams putting out. If we aren't as remembered, so be it.
