Last week at the Dubliner we all discovered an important fact: The girl's got a shot.
Adrienne was blasting a short push from the 2 that struck with force and scored (on me). It was a thing of beauty. How long has this girl been playing? Like 4 months, right?
Anyhow, Mike Sames was showing us that precision that makes him formidalbe. Ken O was shooting that rollover long, the one where you only really see a flash of foosman foot right before the blaaap in the back of the goal.
Dan Rayment was cold for a couple of games then went nuts with that smooth as silk roller (both sides). I was so frustrated.
Billy's got his roller going good again and he's doing some pulls that are deceptive. I'll get used to those soon, though, so he won't be a real pull threat soon.
Bryan Hendrix is getting sharper. He's got a dead pull from the 2 that is simply unbelievable. I saw it, it's ridiculous!
See U tonight!
We listened the the good band, the one that was there the week before. Again, unescorted ladies galore. I'm there every friday.

Last Friday was another fun time.
Mark is in Europe for a couple of months so we missed his misdirection moves, but that's OK 'cause I needed a break from those dangerous things anyhow.
John (JB) Scully is getting his angle game dialed in. That short angle to the corner from a push shot is a killer. Maybe he'll break out his roller soon, don't get me wrong I don't wish a JB roller on anybody.
The band was really cool last week, on Friday's there is usually some rock and roll, Irish music is usually on the weeknights.
Billy is showing the work he has been doing on his five. If you pop by this week you'll get a chance to see some of his new moves.
Kenny has been showing his 'uropin. I don't quite understand it yet, but I will!
Andrianne and I teamed up for a couple of games and I got her up front. I've gotta say I have only seen one other person who can zero in on the ball and smack it hard like she can, and that's T.J. Tellas. When the ball came her way she was smacking it on goal and it took all the goalies by surprise. We won two games with her up front. She is developing so fast!
When you stop by tonight, you'll see what I mean.
We had a couple of locals step up and play. Nice guys. Good bar game. They and their wives stood by and watched for over 30 minutes. I hope they come back.
See you there! I'm there by about 7:15.
Oh, Hey Macpro! When you coming out?

Friday was great!
Dennis Doyle popped by and was shooting lights out, complaining all the time that he was so rusty. Good to see Dennis.
Mike Miller was there early and stayed late. His pull shot is still strong and he's got a nasty middle now. I'm not really sure where Mike's been but I'm glad he's back.
Tom Husband was shooting that devastating pull. He surprised me a couple of times with his 5.
Kenny O still has that sweet 5 and ridiculous roller (both sides). He wanted to play just some 'cause he was playing Saturday.
I limp along like usual.
The Irish entertainer Tony Cummings as on stage last night leading people in songs, playing originals and doing he raucous audience-participation schtick. I had to look up from the table each time he called out "wiggle your butt!" or "chug it all and put it upside down on your head", and then the outrageous.. oh well, you should have been there.
Come on down.
Friday night pickup games at the Dub.
