An Ode To The Ship

Shipmates,

For your reading enjoyment, this week I give you An Ode To The Ship.

In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
In 2001, Dave came back from three straight Ton.
Playing the Roadhouse is always a blast
Even though they're in first and we're in last.

Although we didn't make them cry
We sure as hell gave it a try.
Meredith came by to watch and cheer
And she also managed to drink a beer.

Her actions do not go unsung
'Cause she also slipped Holly some tongue.
After Singles 501 we were tied
Proving Nikki is off the schneid.

After Cricket we were down by only two
You could almost hear their 'boo-hoo'.
In Doubles 501 there was no doubt
We Doubled-In but couldn't Double-Out.

But the last game was ended by Dave Levin
So we lost a close one Eleven to Seven.
A&M was worried for a reason
We scored more against them than any one else this season.

We played them tough, they know who we are
Damn, the six of us nearly closed that bar.
We even left a nice big tip
Have a happy Thanksgiving, Full of Ship.

Props:
The Squad - For being tenacious, and then sticking around and drinking until after 2.

Next week: Our last away game this season, vs the Imports at AJ Kelly's, 6 Stone Street (so far south we'll need passports to go there)
