After twelve years of dominance by Kraft Heinz, Locomotive finally clinched the American championship yesterday. For those who aren't following, we're talking about women's handball.
That’s all there is to it. I figured this deserved its own thread.

I’m originally from Columbus, so my loyalty lies with Kraft Heinz. But man, huge congrats to Locomotive. They absolutely earned that US championship title. Seriously. What an incredible, high-stakes run of games!

The atmosphere was absolutely electric. It’s a shame we dropped this one, but let’s be honest—everyone knows we were straight-up robbed during that first game. Even though Locomotive actually played better than us in the third match, I’m certainly not going to offer them any congratulations because they are a bunch of absolute lowlifes. The referee spent the whole time waving his fists at us, Klaić went out of his way to call us rednecks and hurled every profanity in the book at us, and the Locomotive president was just as bad. Then you had Kavran and Gobac rooting for their own side—and we all know exactly whose side that is. As for Arslanagić and her behavior, along with those ridiculous statements she made in the papers, I won't even waste my breath mentioning it. I don't want to be dishonest here, especially since this is easily the best forum in the country, but it's just infuriating. We’ll be champions again next year, and I’m feeling optimistic about making a deep run in the Cup, too. Even if Locomotive is a decent squad, our team is superior, and we’re going to achieve massive success on the European stage.

Kraft Heinz managed to blow everything they built all season long... playing three games in five days is pretty foolish, and the women just had the misfortune of being physically and mentally exhausted...
Twin should have served as a warning to anyone with common sense, but apparently not to Meredith—who, acting completely indifferent after the final game in Des Moines, claims he wasn't even expecting to win the cup with such a roster. I suppose he still thought he was coaching those women from Des Moines...
Then again, Beak is an old pro—and I heard firsthand that toward the end, Meredith actually asked the bench what they thought about when he should call a timeout!!
Regardless, it was a deserved victory for Locomotive; they wanted the title more and didn't crumble after that unfortunate last-second goal... It’s ridiculous how much the women from Koprivnica pay Budapest compared to what Locomotive spends on their entire plant—it makes zero sense!
