Announcement | December 10, 2011
This past week the semi-finals in both the A and B divisions were played and the winners are now set to face off in the League Championships. In the B Division, the Cartel took a beating by the Usual Suspects over at the Horseshoe Bar in the East Village. The Suspects politely allowed us to play our match to the end so that we could manage 4 points. Thank you. You’re very kind.
Meanwhile, a short ride on the L train away, the Casserollers were at home squaring off against the Damned Refugees at Mug’s Ale House. The Damned Refugees put up a good fight, but ultimately lost to the Mug’s team 9 to 7.
The A Division saw the resurgent Bumper? Hardly Knew Her! team take the match down to the final game against the powerhouse BQE Flipperheads. The final match pitted BQE Captain, La Rocca against the hairy pinball nomad, Joe Said. Joe proved to be too tough for the fiery Italian, and the Bumper team emerged victorious.
Over at Bar Great Harry, the hungry Sofa King Suite managed a win against the Reciprocal Skateboards team. The Terror-Wrists had finished the season strong, but the BGH team was just too much to handle. Maybe they just want it more. In any case, it means that two of the original 5 teams in the league will be meeting in the finals next week!
The win by the Satellite Lounge team means that the A Division finals will be held on Monday, December 12th at Reciprocal Skateboards. The B Division finals have been moved to Wednesday at Satellite Lounge, while we (quietly, please) party around them. The trophies will be handed out to both winning teams after the match. Remember, if you aint playin, don’t mean ya can’t come watch!
