The EMS did not miss an opportunity, The EMS have given themselves the opportunity by getting to this game, the season they had gave them this chance.  Looking to the past accomplish nothing, these kids were not even born then.  The weather should not be a factor, they play on a field design to handle the weather.  Forget "Act of God" this is minor league baseball, these kids are learning the Pro Game, they are learning how to Win and how to Lose and learn from it.  This season was fun to watch over many others, these kids played the game and gave it their all thanks to the manager and his staff, it was how the game should be played.  So the EMS did not miss an opportunity, they gave themselves an opportunity from the play this past year.  Power of Postive Thinking, don't look in the past, don't find fault, these kids and the managers have earned this opportunity and they know it better than anyone.
