ECL 7 Elite - a.k.a "the season where nobody believes in us… again"
So, a lot has happened for the Coal Miners lately. That's why I'm going to tell you an incredible story, kids. The story of how I met your m... iner. Jokes. Fun. Laughter.
Anyway, stuff HAS happened over at Coal Miner Central so to get any (hello?) and all readers up to speed, here's a quick rundown:
We said good-bye to one of our "heart-and-soul" players 😥 Remember us, @minokin. Always!
We partnered up with a Spanish professional football team 😎
Our captain (me!) somehow made the EA SPORTS Gamechanger program 🤯
We scored our first goal of NHL 19 🤑
We gained a new assistant captain 👨✈️ Attaboy, @pentsaa!
We signed a Norwegian and a German ✈️ Welcome @Panserhagen & @Asche!
We signed up for ECL 7, Elite license and all...
…only to be predicted to finish 15th out of 16 teams in the division. Thanks, Elite captains 💩
Anyway.
Once again us Miners are deemed a hopeless case - not prepared for what is to come in ECL 7. In response to that I'd like to quote my personal Lord and Saviour; Richard B. Riddick on two occasions.
First: "Don't know how many times I've been crossed off the list and left for dead, so this, this ain't nothing new. So yet again, we play for blood".
I'll get to the second quote soon.
But if you thought putting us at the bottom of the rankings was going to make us lay down and die, well… I hope we won't. That would be awkward. (Haha.)
No, it won't. But you know what it will do? It'll put us right back in the position of being the plucky underdog, which is where we prefer to be anyway. We're used to working underground for eight hours a day so striking from below suits us just fine.
The second quote?
See for yourself...
OH AND WAIT, I almost forgot… here is our lineup for this season:
Over n' out,
Cap
