The Ship is the world's darts leader. This is the recap it deserves. Seen out and about this week - The Ship bringing its XY game out to the Ace Bar. Or, as Ace Venture might say, Holy Testicle Tuesday!
The all-macho lineup started out well for The Ship, with Rich and Michael sailing through the opening two games. But then, we suddenly began to play as though there were a Naked Raygun pointed at our heads, and we surprisingly dropped four games in a row. Suddenly we were in search of a win... and a clean pair of shorts.
I'm going to take a short time out of the write-up to go speak to myself. If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer.
Rich / Andrew opened Cricket with a win n a close game, and then shanked it in the second game, struggling with darts that were clearly not "laces out," and sending them wide of the bullseye. Dan Marino should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell. In game two, Michael / Dave played one of the all time greats. In an epic battle, they staged a huge comeback and nearly won game two by hitting clutch bulls. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be, but they did earn a split. Fred / John played together in a perfect fit, and bailed us out in the final round, sweeping two games and tying the match at six-all.
I'm going to take a another break, to go psyche myself up for the big finish. If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer.
Entering the wee hours of the morning, Fred / John headed back out but lost a close game in which neither team could find Captain Winkie to end the game. Dave / Michael exorcised the demons in game two, securing a big win. But in the final game, Rich / Andrew had some trouble getting in, and lost with the "Dart Heard Round The World." Hopefully the 10-8 loss won't turn us into the Mayor of Psychoville.
Props:Michael - 3 wins, endless bulls. You must be tired of being right.
