Congratulations to Phil Taylor on his 12th World Matchplay title.

Is This a Real Sponsor?

Remember to stay stupid loose.

Optimistic Bias

I'm totally guilty of ignoring the misses and focusing on the hits.

Second City, Second to Last

The last week of the season, and The Ship needs a big week to make the playoffs. Can we do it? Will Rich eat ten Chicago dogs? Find out here.

Monkey!

Back in the UES

Nowhere better to wash away the sins of last week than the cleansing waters of the UES. Watch us cleanse our souls right here.

Blogging the Last Game Before the Apocalypse

If you haven't heard, the world is supposed to end in Saturday. This, of course raises many questions. Who will be saved? How will the rapture go down? If the darts season is aborted, do the stats still count?

Join us for one last match before we all go up in flames.

Shipwreck Fever!

Live Blogging Live Scoring

OK, so the truth is that this isn't "live blogged".  The first night of live scoring can unequivocally go down as a moderate to neutral pseudo-success.   The "live-scoring" piece went OK, although it was tough to do truly live on the Android.  This did not stop Rich from being on the phone all night.

The bigger issue is that it is potentially impossible to do both live scoring and live blogging.  Perhaps when we are on the road, but when you mix in needing to keep score for reals, as well as actually playing darts, it is a little much.

The good news is that Fred picked up the slack, both by throwing a Ton 74, but also by Facebooking it real-time.

The best news is that The Ship / Outs finally posted a win this season, so there were no ill effects of all this technology.

Stay tuned for more...

Fred's Ton-74

We are collecting Ton-74's this season:

Passover Darts

While you are drinking four cups of wine tonight, ask yourself this: "Why is this night different from all other nights?"  Answer: On all other nights, only one Levin plays darts, but tonight we have two Levins.


Watch The Ship drop some plagues on the competition tonight, right here.

New team name?

Back In Black

And we're BAAAACK! 

Welcome to the first night of the rest of your dart lives. The Ship (news on the name coming soon) is playing its first game at our new bar, Blackstone's. 

See how the new confines treat us right here.

Coming Soon - A New Website

In a season of change, the web presence of The Team Formerly Known as Full of Ship will also continue to change.
In the near future, the blog will be incorporated into a new team website.  Unlike the old site, this one will be easier to update, more dynamic, and more flexible.  Plus, the blog will be an integral part, so updates will continue to be on the blog, but team statistics and data will live through the website.  My hope is that the two will co-exist completely seamlessly.
