Screwed, Blued and Tattooed

This is a season in which the (first place) Ship is going to surprise a lot of people.  And with Michael added back to the roster, the already powerful squad got even better this week.  So don't turn your back on The Ship, or we might leave you screwed, blued and tattooed.

This week started out as a brawl, with each team trading heavyweight punches in the first round.  Rich lost the first game in a close on, and snuck out a win in the second to get things going.  Turner was chivalrous in his games, dropping both.  But John came back with a split and Michael returned to action with a sweep, and Round 1 was ruled a 4-4 draw.

Rich / Andrew dropped the first game of Cricket, and our opponents might have thought they were in the clear.  But then - just like that - The Ship dropped the hammer.  Rich / Andrew won their second game, and Michael / John swept both of their rounds, including a C3 finish from Michael.  After two rounds, The Ship was out to a 7-5 lead.

Michael / John went right back out for D501 and earned a split.  Rich / Andrew finished the night with a sweep, on the strength of two double-outs from Turner.  Bang!  Just lkie that The Ship scored a TKO with a 10-6 win.

Props:

Michael - Five wins in a triumphant return.
Rich - The current Division C All-Star points leader.
