It may be a bit dramatic to say, but Marky Delgado’s 2017 season was a bit like the movie Dodgeball.
For those whose sense of the cinematic arts is slightly more refined than mine, allow me to summarize: the protagonists need to find their inner game in order to save their beloved gym. They are definitely not the biggest, strongest or fastest competitors on the court. But, in true Hollywood fashion, they go on a journey of self-discovery —shedding their old (pirate) clothes and achieving what they always wanted, but never really thought possible.
See the parallel?
