Darts 2009 - 1st Half - Week 02 - Tacony Billiards (away)

HTML clipboard

SUMMARY

week 2 we played Tacony Billiards at their spot...the area where we shot was cramped and crowded...the other team didn't show up till late and the night seemed like it went on forever...we didn't get out of there till around midnight...ughghgh....on the bright side we won the night 8-7...it was a very shaky night though to say the least...a team average less than 50 (drug down mainly by Ed's weak effort at 37.51) and a team cricket average of only 1.76...18 missed ins and 17 missed outs...we have to hit that double ring...

THE LOW LIGHTS

"dolla bills" were flying high this week...we go from 9 in fines last week to 29 in fines this week...the team of Ed, Jr and Ted couldn't hit the double ring...they owed 12 for missed ins and 3 for missed outs between them...Ed and Ted tied for the prestigious "Skippy Award" this week....Ed owed 2 for under 20's, 4 for missed ins, 1 for missed out and 1 for squat at cricket...now that's spreading it around...Ted owed 2 for under 20, 1 c-rule, 4 missed ins and 1 missed out....that's alot of fines...Jr was right behind them with 7 in fines...he owed 1 for under 20, 4 for missed ins, 1 for missed out and 1 for squat in cricket...Andy owed 3 in fines for 1 C-rule and 2 squats in crikcet....Johnny owed 2 total fines...1 for under 20 and 1 for squat in cricket...Bill owed 1 in fines for under 20...Jeff was fine free for the 2nd week in a row...and yes I'd like to thank Andy for saving me dolla bills by being a rock (ie anchor) at the double ins....

Ed had the low average of the night with a pathetic 37.51...we're in division 4 not division 24...step it up...under 45 is unacceptable...Jr rounds out the under 45 club with a 43.87 average...

as a team we had 37.90% of our shots under a 40...if we look under the covers once again we see that everyone (except Andy) had at least 1 game average under a 40...Ed (21.00), Bill (32.00), Ted (33.75), Jeff (36.67), Jr (37.50) and Johnny (38.60)...the following shooters had more than 30% of their shots under a 40...Bill (57.14%), Ed (47.62%), Johnny (47.06%), Jr (41.18%), Ted (41.18%) and Andy (35.29%)...

This week Ed (9) and Bill (9) had scores in the single digits...

We had 18 missed ins this week...Ed led the way with 7 missed ins...Jr and Ted each had 4 missed ins...Jeff had 2 missed ins...Johnny had 1 missed in...and Andy was a perfect 1 for 1 and saved our team dolla bills again...thanks Andy...

we had 17 missed outs this week...Ed led the way with 5 missed outs...Ted had 4 missed outs...Jr had 3 missed outs...Johnny had 2 missed outs...Andy, Jeff and Bill each had 1 missed out...

Jr had balls to bust on me last week...he turns around with the lowest cricket average of the night with a measly 1.25...that made my 1.40 from last week look HUGE....Andy (1.64), Ted (1.67) and Johnny (1.83) round out the under 2.0 cricket club....not very good cricket scores this week...and our two lowest average shooters somehow find a team that's even worse than them...lucky bastards...haha...

Jr and Andy each had 4 0-mark rounds in cricket...Ed and Johnny each had 1 0-mark round at cricket...

Ed had the lowest win rate last night at 28.57%...Ted and Jr each had a 33.33% win rate...Jr had a 28.57% win rate...and Jeff and Johnny had a 42.86% win rate...not very good...these have to be over 50%...

THE HIGH LIGHTS

this week we missed our goal of a team average of 50...we only had a 49.02 team average...Jeff led the way with a very nice 60.04 average...Andy (53.27) and Ted (52.35) round out the over 50 club...Johnny (48.67) and Bill (47.17) round out the over 45 club...

let's look "over the covers" again this week...i think it's important to recognize the people that average over a 40 every game...and those shooters that shoot better than 70% of their shots over a 40.....Andy was the only shooter with all his game averages over a 40...his low of the night was 45.00...nice consistent shooting Andy...Jeff led the way with 95.24% of his shots over a 40...that translates to only 1 shot under a 40...unfortunately that one shot was with a 41 and 43 to give me one low game average of 36.67...how annoying is that...

this week we only had 5 team tons...Jeff led the way with 3 tons...Ted and Johnny each had 1 ton...Ed, Jr, Andy and Bill were all not "in the mood" to post any triple digit shots...

Jeff and Ted tied for the high score of the night with 140...

Andy and Bill each went a perfect 1 for 1 at double ins...very good job...Jeff and Jr each had 2 double ins...Ed and Johnny each added 1 double in...

Jeff led the way with 2 double outs...Johnny, Jr, Andy and Bill each had 1 out...

we knew it wouldn't take long...that's right...Jeff goes from worst to first...Jeff led the way with the team high 2.14 cricket average...needless to say it's still a far cry from his 3.17 average for the 2nd half last year...Ed shot a 2.00 to round out the 2.0 or better club...

Andy and Jr led the way with 3 >=3-mark rounds each...that translated into 27.27% and 25.00% respectively....Ed (2 @ 33.33%), Johnny (2 @ 33.33%) and Jeff (2 @ 28.57%) each had 2 >= 3-mark rounds...Ted shot 1 >= 3-mark rounds...that was 16.67% of their shots...

Andy led the way with a 83.33% win rate...Jeff had a 71.43% win rate...Johnny had a 66.67% win rate...and Bill rounds out the over 50% club by shooting a 50% win rate...

THE QUOTES & RECAP

801-1 -- Ted's 2nd round produces a 10 and 2 bucks...the first 7 rounds produced only a high score of 41...they owed dolla bills for missed outs....but somehow they pull off the win in what seemed like one of the longest matches ever...

801-2 -- Andy hits an 82 on his first round of the night and winds up taking the double out to win our 2nd game of the night...Jeff's last 4 rounds were 100, 100, 83, 92...

801-3 -- only 3 out of 15 rounds were over a 50...Ed throws a 9...and our first loss of the night...

801-4 -- Andy hits a 92...Jeff nails a 140...and Johnny bangs the double out...we're up 3-1 at the end of 801...

501-1 -- 2 rounds of missed ins...Ed finally hits an in...then he follows that up with a solid 11...The only bright light was a 140 by Ted...

501-2 -- Jeff and Johnny miss the in shot...Andy ("the stud") comes to our rescue and hits a 41 on...Jeff takes the double out...

501-3 -- 4 missed ins...Jr hits the in shot...7 out of 8 rounds under a 45...another loss...

501-4 -- Jeff hits the in shot...the last 3 rounds went like this...Bill 93, Andy 97, Jeff 20 for the double out...

501-5 -- Ed misses the in shot...Bill gets in and out...9 of 11 shots under a 45...at least it was a win...

501-6 -- Jeff hits the double in...Johnny hits a ton...but not good enough...another loss...

501-7 -- 4 missed ins...Jr gets on...another loss...

501-8 -- Jeff misses the in...Johnny hits the in...Bill shoots a 9 and 97...Jeff shoots a 93....but another loss...after 501 we're sitting dead even at 6-6...

Cricket-1 -- Ed shoots 3, 4, 1, 2, 0, 2....Ted shoots 1, 3, 1, 2, 2, 1....not good enough...now we're 6-7....

Cricket-2 -- Jeff shoots 1, 4, 2, 2, 1, 3, 2....Johnny shoots 1, 0, 3, 1, 4, 2...good enough for the win...we're now 7-7...

Cricket-3 -- Jr shoots 2, 1, 1, 1, 3, 1, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 3...Andy shoots 0, 4, 0, 2, 5, 3, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1....I don't know how these two characters can find 2 other bozos that suck worse than they do...there's more goose eggs on this score sheet than one can imagine...but either way they continue to win...good job we finish 8-7...

Quote of the night: "Oh you're on Atkins? That's good because I got some bologna pony in my pants..."

"Gotta be able to hit a fattie when you need a fattie."

NOTE: if you want it in the blog just write it on the sheet...I don't discriminate...

CONCLUSION

I guess a winning week is a winning week...but way too many missed ins and outs...practice those doubles...plus team average under a 50 and team cricket average under a 2.0 is not going to cut it in this division...

Next week we play CJ & Ecks at home...
