Will frustration take advantage or will it be the advantage?



The defending champ speaks
This week Darrell Haines was able to finally put the wraps on his series with Stephanie Connelly as he won 4 consecutive games to win his trip to round 2 for the third time. Not only did Darrell gain his ticket to the next round from this series though, he also in his final win became the first person to ever get a Shutout in playoffs. When asked about his confidence concerning possible second round opponents he said,
"Well the way I see it my only possible opponents are Valerie, James and Jason. All people which I have beaten in regular season action more times than one. I will give some credit to James though because he ruined my undefeated streak last season and maybe credit can go to Jason because he seems really into the game, he might beat me if his feet remain leveled on the ground."

How do you spell win.... R.O.B.B.I.E. or J.A.M.E.S. ?

(3) Robbie Sevilla vs (6) James Stevenson in Game 3, Round 1

With the series tied, a possible five games or less could decide who will advance.

Game 3 Pre-Game Review
As we have seen, the standings are out the window in this series... but the question is, who will be out of playoffs? James and Robbie have both already proven great success as they have both shown the ability to win games. James beat the odds in Game 1, obtaining his first win in playoffs in his 3 seasons in the league, while Robbie in Game 2 showed why he made the finals last season.
What will the first round come down to? One could say it will be the one who perseveres. Any player in the game will tell you that frustration is a point of panic in a series. If an opponent drives his opponent there, they take control of the drivers seat. Watch in the games ahead for such frustration and see if it plays a role, against a cool headed individual... distinguish to yourself, which of these could be a future champion.

Where will the tides of fate turn in Game 2?

(3) Robbie Sevilla vs (6) James Stevenson in Game 2, Round 1

Robbie Sevilla down a game and hoping to up his game for Game 2 against James Stevenson. Right now in this series James' unknown strategie has proven a success.
Playoff review
In every series so far it seems that standings do not lie, but this series between Robbie Sevilla and James Stevenson is a bit of a toss up. Robbie who is returning this season after his fall last season in the Finals, will hope to win his first foozeball cup this year. James on the other hand with his victory in the last game won his first ever playoff game, after being eliminated in playoffs the previous two times he has been to the big dance.
The outcome of this game could be unpredictable if you look at how the odds have been against competitors so far in this series. This could be a good series to see through, so keep watching.

Playoff Poll
Here we are at seasons end, as Foozeball is coming to the conclusion of its 3rd season of existence. The season has saw its ups and downs especially with attention this season, although it has endured. Hopefully now as playoffs begin, the season will begin to make its turn as action picks up.

As Champions rise
Randy Thurlow, a name not to be forgotten among Foozeball history or in the books of Maritime Christian college. Unfortunately, as he would become the first ever Foozeball champion he was unable to return to defend his championship. As many know, this is because he had transferred to Lincoln Christian college.
This season for the first time, we have the return of our Foozeball champion. As last years champion Darrell Haines has returned this season... he comes with a chance to retain his championship. When asked his take on this years playoffs he said:
"The playoffs should be a good time, I really believe my chances of winning this season could be narrower than in the past. In any case, I am going into playoffs as one of the top people to ever play the game and I intend to retire as the best!. I cannot take anything away from my colleagues though, they have every chance to rise to the occasion."

If any who this might literally refer to is such as Vincent Arsenault and Robbie Sevilla who are both returners after a great playoff run last season, which Haines would bring to an end. Among these two are 3rd year student James Stevenson. Along with Rookies in the playoff appearence category: Jason McVicar, Valerie Osbourne and Stephanie Connelly. I guess we will find the outcome when the ball is dropped and playoffs begin.
