Brad’s recap is great, and you should read it. You probably did. And if if you did, then you probably don’t want to read another chunk of words telling you about how the Stars played well but lost because they aren’t scoring enough enough. I can’t blame you for that. You’re stressed out enough as it is, what with all of your (our) seasonal consumerism to indulge.
At the end of the game, I was reminded of a Texas Hold ‘Em player who fails to play a strong hand with big bets early. She lets the other, weaker hands hang around, and they get to see a free card or two that changes the game enough to let them take down the pot at the end.
