Screw Loose

It has been said that you need to have a screw loose to play darts every week.  It is safe to say that we have seen some funky characters in this league, and we are clearly a little looney for doing this for nine years.  This was another crazy, unpredictable week for The Ship.

Rich opened the night continuing a recent S501 run with two wins against an old foe, in a game that featured 335 AS points.  Andrew split two tough games, and John was swept in round three.  The birthday girl wrapped up the first round with a split, and it was looking like an even match at 4-4 after S501.

For the first time all season, The Ship hit a rough spot during Cricket.  Rich / Andrew dropped the first game and barely salvaged a split in the opener.  When John / Darian dropped both ends of their round, suddenly the night was not looking so even, with The Ship trailing 7-5.

But Andrew / John but The Ship back on track with a supremely impressive start to D501, as they delivered a good-old-fashioned midget tossing in game one.  Their split put The Ship in position to salvage a tie for the night, if Rich / Darian could deliver a sweep.  And deliver they did, with Darian delivering the final dart of the night.  So The Ship had come back to get a hard-fought split for the night, and maintained a hold on first-place overall.

Props:
Andrew / John - It's been a while since we've seen a tossing.
