As usual, I just haven't felt like writing about shuffleboard. But I figured that I've come this far so I should really try an finish out the season; we only have one game left. So here we go - the 3 weeks that I've missed.
Crowe BarFlies vs. Cozy Corner ClusterPucks
This match was a tough one and it took us all 7 games to get through it. Shelly and I lost the first game to Jerry and Marcus. It was rough. Roger and Patrick were up next against Scott and John, and lost this one as well. Bert and Margaret played against Tori and Lauri in the third game and following suit, lost. So now we are down to one more loss and we can call it an early night. But you all know we played 4 more games.
Steve and Nathan stopped the bleeding against Lee Lee and John. Lexie and Patrick put up another win for the good guys against Jerry and Tori. Really wanting to not play a 3rd time, Steve and Nathan win against Scott and Lauri. So here we are... the dreaded 7th game. Lexie and Patrick battle against Lee Lee and Lauri. It was a constant back and forth. 9th frame. Tied 14-14. Lauri has the hammer... and it drifts an inch further than Patrick's blue puck. We lost by one frickin' inch. Grr.
VFW Flyers vs. Crowe BarFlies
The Flyers came to our house for this match and all the games were hard fought. Lexie and Margaret start it off with a heart breaking loss against Bob and Alma. Roger and Patrick beat Carl and Teresa in the second game. Nathan and Steve lose a close one against Adolph Sr. and Dee. Patrick and I get a win against Fred and Joanne. This back and forth could go on all night!
Lexie and Nathan take on Dee and R. C. in the fifth game and take them down. Now we're on a roll. We need one more win to end this fight. Margaret and I played against Sonny and Carl in the final game. That's right, the final game. We won... and in 6 games this time!
Crowe BarFlies vs. Stafford Sandblasters
Lexie and Shelly go up first (which no matter what people say, no one ever really wants to play first) against Tony and Larry, but lose this one. Patrick and Nathan win against Jean and Phil in the second game, which brings up Margaret and Dave against Larry and Danny. The BarFlies are victorious. Bert and I play against Patty and Annie and we win.
For those of you who are still with me, the BarFlies need one more win to take the match. Can we do it? We put up Steve and Patrick for the fourth game and they lose against Charlotte and Jean in a very close one. Shelly and I take on Charlotte and Tony, but they are too much for us. So, we find ourselves (again!!) in the seventh game. Geez! We play a lot of 7th games. The Sandblasters put up first and they play Phil and Annie. Nathan and Patrick play for the good guys. 8 frames later, the game is over. But who won? The suspense is killing you isn't it? Patrick and Nathan held on and won it for the BarFlies!
Last Wednesday, we had our bye week. So here we are, at the end. Our record - 8-7 with one game to go. Wednesday we take on Woodie's. It will definitely be a fight. We want a winning record. So bring it on Woodie's!
GO BARFLIES!!
