Following are the results from Round 3 and this Friday’s menu, All American BBQ.
Pay Attention players, I warned you several weeks ago, that if we all didn’t improve our level of play Jim Woodcock and his Checkered Napkins would run away with the entire season. And here they stand after 3 rounds tied neck and neck with John Costa’s Mangiamo. Go John, Mary, Jack and Kay, congratulations for holding your standings at the top of the League! It will not be until the final round of regular season play that these two stalwarts will face off.
Meanwhile this Friday’s upcoming games give both the Ramones and Winning Colors the chance to upset these perfect standings. Clay Lingo’s Ramones may actually be up to the challenge if Round 3 was any indication when the Ramones soundly beat Winning Colors with Carl, Carla and Chris, chalking point after point on the board. Unfortunately Winning Colors named after the one of only three fillies to ever win the Derby, has not been a particularly apt name for Lynne Missin’s all girl team, who are at the very bottom of league standings.
As mentioned Trinity Plus with Captain Conor missing in action was soundly beaten by Mangiamo, despite some excellent play by the seasoned Matt Coates and his older brother Brad. Even the highly competitive Moshia couldn’t put enough points on the board to save the game. Our newest substitute English Dan was an important part of the valiant though futile effort.
Finally the stalwart BBC’s actually played the most closely fought game of the evening with Captain Rupert despite his exhortations to team members Barb (roll em straight), Susan (roll em with style) and Ted (just roll em) losing to the near perfect form of Checkered Napkins. Jim, Jim, Kris and Bobby have been an unbeatable combination (so far) with great placement, pool style play and an amazing long distance game. They are the ones to watch!
