Well with one week left in the season things are shaping up rather well. The battles have been close in a lot of matches, and some teams have had to make changes here at the end. Usually I give a run down on how the matches went, but with next week being the last one before playoffs I thought I’d tell you a little about the teams themselves.

 

Money Pit – Since week one this team has kept running and hasn’t looked back. Simons, Duane & Tiny have managed to do what it takes to keep the team going with a couple guest appearances from Hallie. Also one other thing to mention, this is one of the 2 teams that actually didn’t have any make up games all season. Holding on to 36 wins at the moment, they sit in 1^st place, I’m almost sure we’ll see them in the playoffs.

 

Pineapple & nuts – Conrad, Casey & Eddie Williams have been trucking along just fine, grabbing wins or keeping matches close. I think the format never even fazed this team at all. What was an odd addition was when Eddie had to be away for a while, I got to step in for a few games. With 32 points this team sits in 2^nd and should be able to make it into the playoffs.

 

Game Over – Eddie Wimberly, Margaret & Heather D. makes up this squad, but I’m torn, should I name them Sleeping Beauties? The format has really been a thorn in Eddie’s side most this season, and guess what, the season is almost over. A couple times subs had to be used, so the team also saw Alvin & Stephanie for a couple games. Now you’ll notice Heather’s use of a walker, and the boot they’re hoping to kick teams in the ass with. They’re sitting in 3^rd with 30 points at the moment, but Arctic Wolves are a match behind and on their butts.

 

Arctic Wolves – Shawn, Danielle, & Randy have been going along, grabbing a few games as they come. They had a couple make up games to take care of, still one out there to be wrapped up on. David stepped in for Randy one match, helping the team keep on track. With 27 wins they’re sitting in 4^th but a whole match behind every one else. Games yet to be played are against D.D.’s Rodeo & Money Pit, so it could be a close one.

 

Easy Come – Robert, Cajun & Tina started off the season, but after a little flaking out, Tina was quickly replaced by Heather W. I have to say, it was a good replacement for the guys. The team grabs games here and there, but most importantly, they’re a fun group. With 24 point they sit in the 5^th spot uncomfortably as the team ahead of them and the team behind them are both shy a match that will be played. This coming week they’ll face D.D.’s Rodeo who’s looking for a big jump to get into the playoffs.

 

D.D.’s Rodeo – Bill, Joe & Pagel were thrown together and haven’t done at all that bad. With Andrea filling in here and there, the team has for the most part been able to keep on track. They are however in a close battle for that 4^th spot, and with the chance to grab it. They get to play Easy Come & Arctic Wolves for their chance to grab enough point to jump over their competition. With 21 points they’re sitting in the 6^th spot with one match to makeup.

 

The Boss – Danny, Lexi, & Gary, what’s there to say about these guys. They’re here to have a good time and play some darts. Though Hallie has had to step in to finish off the season, as there’s almost always a player missing, they still manage to get matches played. A little less running around, & a bit more focus this could have been a good team. With 18 points they’re tied for 7^th at the moment.

 

Gotcha – Linz, Oshea, & Kim another one of my teams I made up at the last moment, started off strong. Todd B., has made a couple guest spot and Travis was good enough to jump in and finish the season off. For these guys it’s the small things in life that matter. I’m hoping they’ll return for the next express league. Tied at the moment with The Boss at 18 points, they’re in 7^th.
