2. Written, up to 4 TPE - Grab Bag: Pick up to 4 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words.

Code:
a. Two old faces are back in the ring, proving reports of the dynasty’s demise were greatly exaggerated! Pick either of our finalists, and tell me what about them impresses you the most!

Who you calling old? I'm still in my prime other than the fact I am not as good as I was at just about anything. But then there are other people on NEW that are better than they were so I would say that evens out. What is impressive about NEW? I would say it is their shoes. They have really nice shoes.

b. Upsets were a theme this year - which of our finalists had the more difficult road to the promised land and why?

Well as both of the teams came out on top I struggle to say who's was harder than the other. Though I would give the edge to NEW as they had to take out the #2 and #3 seed to get to the finals where WPG had to take out #6. All other teams were lower ranked than them. Lets give a shout out to LAP for the upset of the season though!

Code:
c. Which of the finalists had the more impressive conference finals victory, and why?

This feels almost redundant with my last answer, but again going to give it to NEW (I am a homer I guess). But going into the series WPG and PHI would have had to be favored so WPG beating a lower seed (while not easy) should not come across as a big surprise.

d. If it ain't broke don't fix it: Who you got? Who wins? Why?

Well clearly it will be (and was because I am late) NEW. We felt really good coming into the series and feel like we were able to finish the job and won it in 6 games. Regardless of the outcome, I still would have voted NEW for this because I will not bet against my team.

12. Written, 2 TPE - The Procrastinator Special! (100 words min.)

Looks like [TEAM] won Season 74! Who won and why? What could the other team have done differently to change the result? What was your favorite part of the series?

Well I am definitely the procrasinator and NEW came out on top in 6 games. I can not really say what WPG could have done to change the result other than win some more? I know that is not all that helpful but I am not good at the FHM strategies nor do I know the details of the shots/goals ratio or anything. Favorite part of the series? Winning it obviously! It is my second cup with NEW in the past 5 seasons and I am pretty pumped about that. Now just on to the next season and try for another cup. We still have the talent!
