The challenge - keep our 3-game winning streak alive
First up for Woodie's is Rod and Lupe going against our Nathan and Bert. After a shaky start, the BarFlies settle down and win the first game 16-8, thanks to a 7 point frame from Bert. Next up for the BarFlies are Patrick and Shelly, who had a rough time against Tu and Lupe. We lost this one 3-16. Dave and I go up for the 3rd game and Stephen and Jade are our opponents. With no handicap points, we squeeze a win out of this one 16-12.
For the 4th game, Margaret and Lexie play for the BarFlies opposite of Stephen and Bob. Now this game got a little hairy, mainly because I, and some of my team mates don't know how to count. We have a rule in our league that you must play 6 different players by the 4th game. Over the years there has been some very heated arguments over this rule. Someone mentions to me that they have only played 5 players and we are in the 4th game. So I look down at the score sheet... count... count again and come up with 5 players (beer and counting do not mix). I stand up and announce (very sure of myself) that we have won this game (not the match) due to their lack of 6 different players. So they say they're players out loud, while I count AGAIN! Oops! 6 players. I'll go back to my seat now (with my tail tucked neatly between my legs). After all the laughing died down we got back to the game. The BarFlies lost this one 12-17.
The 5th game ends up pretty much the same way as the last. Bert and I lost against Tu and Lupe. Lexie and Nathan tried their luck against Jade and Jerry in the 6th but couldn't quite beat them. Woodie's won the match 4 games to 2.
Grrrr!
So we've had a week off and will have this one off too. Hopefully we can find our winning ways again!
GO BARFLIES!!
