By no means did I actually mean to indicate in any seriousness that we saved you... I will clear that up a little later.
My joking however was not all that fair to you for a couple of reasons. 1st not everyone knows the history behind you joining us etc and what I said was more of a joke between the two of us and should have been done via PM or other. 2nd The Pak cup comment was also a little offside, I should be supporting you guys or any Langley team I deal with and not rubbing it in your faces, especially since you guys more than us deserve to be moving on to the 3rd round.
I heard a team 1040 interview with a former pro QB the other day regarding the superbowl. When he went to the superbowl as a major underdog early in his career and was asked whether he'd be satisfied with their efforts if they didn't win after this amazing run and he said Sure, I am so proud of what we have done. A few years later, after WINNING a superbowl the same reporter asked him the same question and his answer was much different now that he knew what it was like to win it, he said he could not believe he thought he would have been happy never winning a Superbowl. My point being you've won some hardware so it means alot more to you to lose than it does me/us. I didn't mean to disrespect you, I had no way of understanding what it meant to you, but knowing your Character I should have known better.
As far as saving you... that was supposed to be funny..like "Saved" like born again Christian type comment. You and I BOTH know, and LFC should agree (But not in public) that you brought far more to our teams than we offered you and you and the Peg guys that moved over did save the Langley Premier team that we had at the time... You helped get them out of relegation and onto a cup win, leaving behind a good basis for what LFC has been putting together since.
Anyhow you may think this explaination and apology is more embarrassing than my initial comments but owe it to you at the least.
