Top 10 Reasons Aces Lost Quarter Final Game



After a solid 2nd place finish in 2010-2011, local hockey team the Black Aces could not overcome their 3rd place rivals the Bloor Battlers last week, falling 3-1 in a soft-fought match that saw the team struggle to create good scoring chances.

In spite of a standout performance by goaltender Raj C, the Aces now find themselves in a battle for bronze against the Wyse Guys in two weeks.

Goals may have been in short supply, but thankfully excuses were not. Here now are the Top 10 Reasons Why The Aces Lost the Quarter Final Game.

10. Lack of inspirational pre-game music

9. Everyone was saving it for this week's shinny game.

8. Entire team suffering from mass 'upper body injury'.

7. Thinking too much about post-game beer selection.

6. Raj played too well, everyone else decided to take it easy.

5. 6 players were playing in only their 2nd game of the season.

4. Pre-game strategy session 'too confusing'.

3. "Earthquake premonitions were freaking me out, man."

2. Mis-read cliche manual, only gave 109%.

and the number one reason the Aces Lost the Quarter Final Game:

1. Distracted by the guy in the stands throwing his hat in the air.

Cue band, mindless applause. Go to commercial.
