Thursday Darts, Week 6 (9/29/11)

Final Score: Da Geeks 0, Bud Guys 7. Don, Ernie, and Mark showed up at Michael's Sports Pub & Grill at their staggered times.


Bottom line, Da Geeks sucked and Friggin' Ernie was on, although during the match I didn't call him friggin', it was the Holy Mother of cuss words. He started out his games by hitting Tops and during a doubles match when we needed one bull and they needed 3, he hit a single which fell out, hit the Double Bull then followed it up with a single that stuck.....friggin' Ernie.


Rodman had a very nice moment when he hit back to back 3x2's. Woo Hoo he won a game!


The Honor Roll had Rodman with two 3x2's and Ernie with two 3x2's.

Tuesday Darts, Week 6 (9/27/11)

Final Score: Ga Geeks 3, Higgs Boson 4. Mark and Woody showed up @TheOldeShip early which was nice since we got to start early. Greg was hungry and after his bowl of clam chowder, he ordered some Crisps as you can read about here, GBD to the Max.


Greg has found out where the bulls are located on the board. He also impressed everyone by starting out a 501 singles game with a Ton-40 then adding a couple of 81's in the mix. 


We were able to finally figure out how to control them in Cricket so there was no PMWing last night.


I was told by Greg that it was my time to be honored in the blog. He said I was to call myself "Tripleisish"! Well I finally woke up in the team games and in Cricket I figured out where the dang triple was located. I Hit T-19, T-18, and blew the next and hit a 3. AL lot more came out in that game as when we needed points I hit the T-20 when needed.


I had a problem in practice/warm-up where I could not hit a double to save my life. I got a very sore arm but it changed into a dull small pain that finally had me actually shooting better! The last out of the night was when Greg left me 58 in the double 301 game. I hit a solid 18, then aimed for "Tops" and hit a D2. Well the only thing I could do was to go to the bottom of the board and I did finish with the D19. Greg was impressed and he was impressed with my D17 earlier in the match.


The Honor Roll had me with a 3x2, Greg with a Ton-40 and a 3x2, and Mark had a 3x2.

Thursday Darts, Week 5 (9/22/11)

Final Score: Da Geeks 1, Are We Having Fun Yet 6. Randy, Ken, and Geff, who showed up late so we juggled the playing order to accommodate. That was the only good thing Da Geeks did.


Randy is an awesome player. He likes shooting bulls first which plays on the other teams mind. No wonder he is the Bull-Buster leader. Although Ken pulled off a 3x2 to win a doubles when Rodman and I needed one bull to win, bummer.


Marv was the star, I think he likes throwing a lot of games in a row.


I was not on, I shot a lot to the right tonight.


Rodman faced Randy first and I hate to say, he got his arse whooped.


The Honor Roll had me with a 3x2, Marv with a 3x3 and a 3x2, Ken had two 3x2's.

Tuesday Darts, Week 5 (09/20/11)

Final Score: Geek & Sub 1, Dartalohics 6. Edsel and Alden showed up right on time to The Olde Ship and gave us some interesting matches. 


Marv subbed in for Greg as Greg and Dee are kayaking at Catalina for the next couple of days. I feel sorry for them as they have quite a bit of paddling coming up. I did give Greg some of my Ibuprofen I get from the VA  to help him out. I hope they are having fun.


Marvin had fun playing the '01 games again, but he did have a bit of trouble getting started in a 301 singles game, he didn't. He did make up for it by hitting Tops in the three team 301 games later on to get us started.


My only claim to fame for the night was in the first game I shot. Edsel started out with 4 60's in a row. I finally got going an was left with 80. I stepped up and something told me to GFI, so I hit Tops, breathed, and hit Tops again. Marv gave me crap by saying the first dart was a oops but I told him it felt right and it paid off.


Edsel totally dominated the Cricket game and that team was like that all night. The we hitting trips at will. If we closed our '01 games on time, we would have a lot better score than a 1-6.


The Honor Roll had Edsel with a Ton-09 and a 3x2. Alden had  Ton-25 and a Ton-35.

Thursday Darts, Week 4

Final Score: Da Geeks 3, Here For The Beer 4. Justin, Ed and Mr. Bastard (Julien) showed up at The Olde Ship British Pub & Restaurant and Bastard and Gail had dinner while Rodman and I finished up our practice games (1-1 BTW).


It started out as a good night as I caught heck for not having the correct color score sheet. Sorry guys, the Tuesday blue looks a lot like the Thursday green. Oh well, I messed up. This was only part of the abuse we threw back and forth to each other. 


Marvin was hot on bulls and 16's tonight. And he hit Tops on the last dart to win the team game. Way to go Marv.


Rodman got to go first, or second as we altered the starting order to get a head start of the night, and he had some good "machines" which was good to see. (a "machine" is what our team calls three solid singles to close a number). Starting early means getting done early which is nice since Tuesday took forever.


I shot OK, had a couple of good throws, but the lack of practice sure shows.


Justin wasn't as impressive as the last time we met, but he is still a solid player. I am glad that Rodman was able to show him who was boss. At least he didn't take out the 160 in the team 1001 game because if he did, I would have given him a load of crap in this blog, but his turn he threw like crap so there is the caca for the night.


Ed was Ed, although he caught the PMW bug and capitalized on 20's during the doubles against Marv and Rodman. He should be Mr. Pain In The Ass as he is when he is on, which he was, until Marv and I took him and Mr. Bastard down in our doubles match.


Mr. Bastard was a thorn in our side, missing a round of 9's staring off a double game with a T-20, T-19, and then outside of the wire for a S-16. He had a PMW moment and the jury is still out to determine if the 3 18's we actual misses at the bull or if it was try to get the non-existent hangy of three in a bed, close together, and all in the pie in a row closet to the bull. Me being the judge, I say it was a PMW moment.


Nobody made the Honor Roll this week, but there were a lot of attempts to get on it.

Tuesday Darts, Week 4

Final Score, Da Geeks 1, Asscott & Kimwitt 6. Kim and Arsehole showed up, both on time! It was nice shooting out of Centerfield Sports Bar & Grill and it wasn't crowded. The only thing wrong, not really wrong, is that is was a very late night. There were a lot of delays, thanx to Mr. Numero Uno Arsehole who was responsible for the long delays. It started out as he went home to get something to help his teammate then taking FOREVER in selecting tunes at the very start of the first team 501 game. And his music suxed, except for the 2 tunes he let me and Greg pick out.


More delays as there were scoring errors, yes thanx to me, and just the fact that we were relaxed playing this team as we played as friends, not cut throat competition. Everyone got in the act throwing slurs, insults, and digs back and forth. It is so nice to play a team like that. It would have been nicer to win more over a Point Mongering Whore and his sidekick (who if you look up total loser in the dictionary, you will see is ugly mug).


Well I was off practicing my doubles prior to the game and it showed during the match. My first 301 game against Kim, he had 100 and I finally got on with an 8. I did just buckle down and repeated Winston Churchill's quote in my head, "never surrender and never give up." I was down to 4 and finally hit it using 3 darts, scoring on 2. A lot of wire action by being just a wee bit off. 


Greg was on in bulls, but Mr. Arsehole wanted to get even with him after Greg beat him last time. Greg and I both need to practice, especially on closing. In our last 301 game, greg started off with getting us on with a 2 dart Ton, I followed with a Ton, and then we got down to 4 before they started. It was bad, we friggin' LOST!!! We could not get out. Our throws were just a wire off with good groups. Frustrating. Greg did hit a "G Spot" earlier, but still, we need practice.


Kim got back into his PMW mode and even Scott, excuse me, Mr. Arsehole!, commented on it. It is just Kim's way in showing his under-cofidence and running scared.


The Honor Roll had Greg with a High On of a Ton and Arsehole Scott had a 3x2.

Did I mention that Scott Calendar is an arsehole? In case I didn't, he is.

Thursday Darts, Week 3

Final Score: Da Geeks 5, Twitchers 2. Jim, Bob, Mike, and Thom who came in at game 6 for Jim, showed up to a crowded bar as The Packers game was on. The only problem I had with the wait staff tonight was that I think they gave me diet soda as now I have that "funny" aftertaste. Also it is so funny when I get there, the punching bag breaks!! It looks like someone pulls the plug so drunks don't get in the way while the match is going on. It did start working again just as we were done, so it is so strange. 


My teammates were on, which is good to see. I shot well, so well that Jim pulled his "play one game and give it to me" stunt, which is a habit of his. If he doesn't want to play, then get out of the league. I got satisfaction though after Marv left me 40 in the 1001 game. I was outside the first dart then nailed Tops on the second one. Whooo Hoooo!


The Honor Roll had Mike with a 3x2. I did have a Ton-21 int the last game, but those don't count on Thursday's, only Ton-80's.

Tuesday Darts, Week 3

Final Score: Geek & Son 3, Higgs Boson 4. Woody and Mark showed up, along with Steve Lawson, Pam, Christa, and others. Good to see all the players who have been around awhile.


Before I get into the star of the night, I will tell my readers how I did, or didn't. I started out strong with my opening 501 game. I shot 81, 83, 26, 94 but still couldn't hit my out of 3.


In the 301 team game, we were stuck on 4. I stepped up, first dart, resting outside the wire of D2. Second dart was resting on the inside of the double wire of the deuce, so X was left. Yes thank you Wire Gods, I hit it. Woody said to me, "I would be really disappointed if you didn't hit that."


Now Greg, Mr. Bullbuster. He threw solid darts to stay close to Mark in the first game them came on fire in the Cricket game. He kept close then was forced to shoot bulls, which he did and won the game. Final Score was 250-250.


The Honor Roll had Greg with a Ton-18 and a 4x2. Mark had a Ton-25.


Code: BG0305005

Tuesday Darts, Week 2

Final Score: Geek & Son 1, Dartaholics 6. Alden and Edsel showed up and it was good seeing them again in the league. Both of my boys were there, Greg to shoot very well and Jami for support.


Greg was awesome as usual, coming from behind in his '01 games against Edsel to win those. Even with Edsel throwing back to back Ton-20's, Greg still came through. He took out an 82 after he listened and hit the trip 14, missed Tops and hit a single 20 then hit the Double 10. He loves '01 games!


I suxed but I was also getting the sweats and I experienced some dizziness during the game. I could not hit anything. The only thing I could figure out is that I did not eat properly and that meds the doctor has me on has the "you better eat something before you take this warning" on the data sheet that came with the pills. I was fine after I got home and ate something, so I better heed the warnings on the pills.


The Honor Roll had Edsel with two Ton-20's, a Ton-40, and a 4x2.
