Tough match. On paper, the Knights had the edge, especially on the lower boards. Yet Ilya and Vadim came through with a good 1.5 result on Boards 3 + 4. Too bad the GM-GM matchups landed in favor of the Knights.
Oops- I meant to add, good luck next year. It was a good season and an interesting playoff match.
Poop.
Well, props to the team for consistency – another year, another trip to the playoffs.
As my basketball coach said, come back hungry next year.
I would like to point out that when I was Manager, we made it to the finals two years in a row. Fire Jorge!
Yes, a tough loss. We had our chances, but so did NY and they came out on top. Congrats to the Knights. Good luck vs. NJ (though I’ll probably root for the KOs
)

I know Boston fans are tough to please but when the Assistant Manager is calling for the Manager’s head… wow!
A tough loss in a match that could have gone either way but that seems to be the USCL MO. Better luck next year.
PS – Wonder if we’ll see Jorge’s analysis complete with his new informant symbols for his creative position assessments?
LOL, Chris. I can only imagine these symbols…Time to start a blog…every time you want to say something you gotta pull back and say, no this isnt appropriate, whats the best blogging software, Birdie?? I want to thank all the fans who supported us throughout the season, it was a tough loss but I think overall we have feel proud of the way we played this season. Cya next year.
Thanks to all the Blitz team members for an exciting season of fighting chess!
WOW – another FANTASTIC season folks… absolutely wonderful play – no regrets – we’ll be back next year – FOR SURE !!!
