What's there to say about week two. It came, it went, and now it's over. The two new teams played their first matches together. Every one clawing for wins, as wins equal cash money at the end of the season. Here's the results.

*************************************************
A couple questions was asked of me that I want to put up the answers so every one gets a chance to see them.

Does Money Week count towards the play off requirement and win lose record.
Yes on both, Playing Money Week will count towards the 4 match requirement and the wins / loses will affect your standings.

Tuesday started the season of Express Trios, and a happy addition to the schedule. The Bandits & Bi-Polar Express will be joining us the time around. This season the teams are battling each match out for the best reason, each game counts as cash money. Oh yes, the best motivator in the world to do what you can, since day one. For every game won (remember each team has a chance at 9 games a night) the team will earn $3.00. All you have to do is win the match with the minimum amount of games (5) to make your league fee back. Not a bad thing if you ask me.

Well the deadline came and went for the Express Trio’s league. I can see that summer is in full swing, only a handful of teams signed up. Though I may be at fault this time around, I haven’t been beating the bushes like I should have been. Anyways, the deadline to sign up has been extended to July 6th. That gives me a little time to fix the schedule and notify teams. So if you’re interested in playing, give myself (Dupes 229-3093) or Hallie a ring (301-8128).

This is the closing day for Express Trios. A fun format that's different from the long seasons we've become used to. If you want to play, this is the last day for sign up.

The Express Trios at PJ’s wrapped up the first season with playoffs last night. Let me tell you, the four teams that were there for their chance at the money all played well and it showed why they were the top 4. We tried to get the matches rolling at 7pm, which actually we were able to get the Money Pit versus Arctic Wolves match going on time. Not the say that the Game Over versus Pineapple & Mixed Nuts match didn’t fly through once it got started. In fact the Game Over match wrapped up before the Money Pit.

D.S.C.'s Express Trios at PJ's had a good run last time. It's been a little bit over a month since the last season ended paying out a nice 1200.00 between first & second. Well now that I've seen how things go, this time around, I'm giving every one a chance at the money by paying the teams for each win. Should help add some competitiveness to tho whole thing.

And just like that the express season is over. 7 weeks have come and gone. Every one has played every one once. No handicap, no reason for stat control, and honestly, in my opinion, a good group willing to have a good time. I have to say, it was a close race all the way through. Money Pit was the only undefeated team working their way through the 7 weeks. People may ask how I chose to put Game Over in second over Pineapple, well I looked at who won the match they played against one an other. I was slightly surprised not to see any perfect ’01 games thrown.

A few questions were asked about the playoffs, so here’s the info. As I’ve said from day one, I’m taking the top 4 teams & paying out the top 2. Players must have played in 4 matches in order to be qualified to shoot in playoffs.

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.

 

I have to say, looking at the numbers, the teams are fairly close, and the only one that’s really pulled away form the pack is Money Pit but could still easily be caught when all the teams get their games caught up. Now I know I’m a bad, bad person, I was at the matches last night. Sorry, but the chance for a day off from darts sprung it’s head and I took it. Here’s how the matches played out.
