We lost in a tournament final yesterday against our biggest rival. Refs were great - we weren't. Zero offensive execution the entire game - ran nothing right after playing well both games Saturday. Compounding our problems, we shot 4-19 from the line only to lose by 5.
I thanked the refs and told them they did a great job. They did, and you want good refs in a championship game. Now if only we can fix our issues

My signature line is spoken in a lighthearted manner, but is not totally without foundation. There are exceptions, like yourself, who are gracious in defeat to everyone, including the officials. There are also exceptions in the other direction: "We won, but we had to beat all 7 of them!" "Our officials last night were as bad as you!"
