Deja Vu All over again

Losing StreakImage via Wikipedia
Well crap! The Crowe BarFlies took the Stafford Ye "Olde" Puckers to game 7! And what happened? We lost. Grr!!


We're up to our same old tricks again I guess. Didn't we start off last year on a losing streak? Hopefully we'll snap out of it soon. 


Next up are the defending champs, the Crowe Wildpuckers. Great. So thanks to my genius scheduling abilities, we played the 2nd place team the first week, the 3rd place team the second week and just for shits and giggles, we play the 1st place team the 3rd week. Yeah, I'm that awesome!

But enough rambling, back to this week's game. We almost had them!

We lost the first game by, well we'll say a lot. Lex and Roger had a rough time against John and J.R.  The second game didn't look much better, but somehow we pulled it out of the gutter. My partner Patrick and I played this one against Keith and Becky. At one point, we were down 14-3 and managed an impossible comeback to take it 18-14. I think I had a mini heart attack after that. Then it was time for another newbie to get his first win. Nathan and Dave played against Doc and Bear and beat them 17-10. Next up was Bert and Steve against Steve and Paul. The weird thing about this game was that the "Steve"s were the only ones who scored points. Odd. We lost this one 12-15.

Okay. So we are tied 2 to 2. We send Margaret and our newest player Shelly to play opposite Keith and J.R. They almost held onto this one but lost 13-16. Patrick and I go up again for the 6th game, this time against John and Paul. We win this one 15-12 and Patrick and I get to enjoy the rest of the night from the bench.

So here we are at game 7. The Ye "Olde" Puckers have Keith and Steve playing so we send in Margaret and Dave to get our last win. But Keith and Steve were too much for them and we lost 11-17.

We played a helluva match, in my opinion. So good job BarFlies! We'll beat them when they come to our house! But for now our sights are set on the Wildpuckers!

So GO TEXANS and GO BARFLIES!!
