Tauro Prophecy

I just happened to be looking at the Fulchester United website and found an article they wrote on Mar 29th. This was right at the end of the regular season where some teams were fighting for a playoff spot. Here is what the article said:

Dynamo ( 12 ) vs. ( 3 ) Tauro

Dynamo is perhaps one of the surprise teams in Division 3. Tipped by some to be an outside contender for a top 3 spot, the team has struggled badly with consistency this season but still managed to pull off a huge 5-1 upset win over title-chasing Arsenal last week. Tauro for their part have shown outstanding form since Christmas and have lost only two games in 2006. Rob Hydomako has been the go-to-guy for the men in Blue and will be the man to watch again tonight as Tauro look to pip Arsenal to second after a relatively slow start. Isaac Hayes in the Tauro goal has been in MVP form of late and is another player to watch in what should be a high-scoring affair. Dynamo blew Tauro away last time out with Andrew McCarthy scoring three. Don’t put any serious money on a repeat of that result though as Tauro look to bounce back from disappointing 5-5 tie last round.

Prediction: 6-1 Tauro

Well, that game didn't quite go as we planned and we ended up tying them which dropped us a few spots in the overall rankings. But it actually worked out for the best because we got to play the Hawks in Round 1 of the playoffs and we seemed to own them all season.

It's fun reading articles about yourself (or at least my team). Isaac definately was in MVP form and honestly we would never have made it that far without him. Also, Rob was a huge asset to our team all season scoring 30+ goals in 26 or so games. Pretty impressive! There were lots of other contributors on the team that we definately needed or else we never would have gotten as far as we did, but if I start naming names I'd probably miss someone and hurt their feelings. So we'll just leave it at Isaac and Rob.

Speaking of that, the Awards Night is May 15th so to all you Tauro players feel free to come on out for that.
