Foozeball 2008-2009 Season
Hello all you loyal MCC Foozeball fans!
As you may or may not know it's nearly september, and with september comes the start of school and (more importantly) MCC Foozeball! As Robbie mentioned we've got a lot of great ideas for the next year and we'll be letting you know about them HERE on the foozeball blog, because foozeball blogs are cool! unlike those who do not check the foozeball blog who are uncool.
So far the Foozeball league has seen some pretty big upsets and monsterous come-backs in it's time. Let's take a brief look back at the Foozeball history through the years.
2005-2006
That year saw Darrell Haines leading the scoreboard at the end of the regular season with 24 points, followed closely by the Foreman twins with 21 points for Dan and 20 points for Ben.
Going into the Playoffs, however, was a different story. In the Semi-Finals the Foreman twins were pitted against each other, with Dan emerging the victor. Darrell Haines, the hopeful young man from Burtt's Corner faced off against Randy Thurlow and was defeated in the semi-Finals. Randy defeated Dan in the finals in a very close 7th game win to take the title of the first ever MCC Foozeball Champion.
2006-2007
Having had many of the players in the previous year graduated, the 2006-2007 series saw a lot of bright new hopefuls to claim the coveted Foozeball Cup. Darrell continued to dominate the regular series ending with a whopping 41 points followed by yours truly Vincent Arsenault with 34 points and the unorthodox but effective strategic plays of Tyler MacDougall with 26 points.
Going into the playoffs Darrell Haines again appeared to be the best pick for the Foozeball Champion, but being in the same situation as last year he still had his doubts. Eventually the Finals pit the Foozeball Giant Darrell Haines against the swift fingers of Robbie Sevilla, a newcomer from the big city of Toronto. Finally after four very close games Darrell Haines claims the trophy which he so richly desired and was named the Foozeball Champion of 2006-2007
2007-2008
Last year's competition was fierce as the veterans of Foozeball geared up for yet another season of competition to claim the Foozeball Cup. Darrell Haines, for the third year in a row, managed to clinch the top of the standings at the end of the regular season with 40 points, but his position was threatened greatly by Vincent Arsenault trailing much too close behind with 39 points and Robbie Sevilla with 32 points bringing up third.
Going into the Playoffs it appeared that the winner would be one of the Commissioners, either Darrell, the Commish at the beginning of the season, Vincent, the newly appointed Commish coming to the end of the season, or Robbie, the appointed co-commish. The semi-finals saw all three of these men and a fourth, lesser known individual to the MCC Foozeball league. Jason McVicar, another newcomer to the Foozeball League was straggling along amidst these hardened Foozeball Veterans. In the end, however, McVicar emerged victorious, eliminating Darrell Haines in the semi finals and then Robbie Sevilla in the Finals, wrenching the Foozeball Trophy from Haines' hands and claiming it as his own.
2008-2009
As the season begins, who will emerge victorious? With Darrell and Jason already tasting the sweet victory of Championship they're itching to add another trophy to their collection. Will Darrell, facing his final year at MCC, be able to break the records and boast that he is the only person to lead the Foozeball Standings through every regular season he participated in? Will a newcomer rise yet again from the shadows and steal the cup from under the seasoned player's noses? The only way to find out is to watch and see how it all unfolds.
Enjoy the upcoming foozeball season everyone!
