And then there were none

We had to play on a Friday again cuz Cornerdam had a huge party during our alotted time slot on Thurs. It's not personal, it's just business I guess. All seemed ok 'til the phone calls & emails started on Fri:

Dog - "I can't make it; we're moving offices tonight"
Matt - "Don't think I'll be there by 6:15. I'll be there for the second one but not sure I want to play"
Lap - "Do you need me? I can be late for D&D if you do"
Liz - "Do we have enough players cuz I'm not 100%" or words similar..

WTF? Mike I love you.

Anyway, everyone not called Tischler did show up, which was super-duper. Lap & Liz started off & not too long afterwards Lap was leaving for D&D having lost 7-0. "Nothing worked" he said before trundling off to the big game.Weasly went up 3rd leaving me or Matty for the last spot. In match number 2 however, something unusual was brewing. Liz was nearing the finishing post, ahead of her opponent. Could it be? Was it possible? YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Laya took her first scalp of the season. You can't keep a good girl down, eh? She'd had a few beers too methinks. Coincidence?

Where there seemed no hope, suddenly we had a chance of winning this match. We'd need Weasler & the 4th match to ensure victory but things were looking rosier.They put up 4th and a nice young girl came over and said she was up, that she had just started playing and don't put the A up cuz she was going to lose regardless. Wow. Who wants to play that? Not Matt who when asked if he wanted to said no. That left the big bad captain to beat up on the poor harmless female. While he was doing that, watching his opponent give up & just plow into the wrong ball rather than attempt a kick, the large German came through with a W. That left the grim reaper to finish burying the now miserable girly, which he did with little enjoyment.

Another victory. Yummy.
