It's called CASH. A company wants to get their name in front of us so they pay BT some cash. Done deal. Just like BUD, Live Nation & Columbia Pictures.

Decent game with some obscure stuff in the middle of the game. I especially liked the Loy Allen Jr q.

Ended up 12th, should have done better.

I liked the game last night. Thought it was pretty well done. I was headed for obsurity after a mediocre 2nd and 3rd round (also missed the Loy Allen question), but then pulled out a 7500 in the last round to finish 31st.

They did end the Bud Lime Countdown but shouldve continue it. They have advertise movies since I started playing 2 1/2 years.

A long time since two days ago? BT always does this during QB1 season mostly for the west coast players. Kind of difficult for them to play STC(SIQ in the good ol' days) at 430 so they repeat it after QB1. They've been doing this for many years, way before the idiocy of encore games from two years ago.

It's a good thing IMO and the scores on the repeat game don't count.

If you knew them, you would understand why they're so good. Some of them can quote dates before they were even born and events as well.

A few of them don't have problems with the earlier starting time and the rest of us do.

I've this summer played with the Side Pockets crew when they played at Hooters of Maryland Heights for a promotion there. One of my scores figured in the top 5 for a #1 bar score. That crew with Kevin (SPCL K), Jim (SCHLEP) and Jeff (KCCOY, REALMA) are awesome indeed. So they are indeed ESM Lakewood's top competition.

I know all those guys and they are great people and players, and are my friends. But, you not even being a part of the team and then saying, "ESM's top competition" is insulting. The way you wrote the sentence is to imply that they are the only competition, and that is simply untrue. There are groups that are competitive each and every week, they are among a small group of establishments that can win in any given week.

I think what Bobby is trying to say is that you don't know who the teams to beat are and in what order they would be ranked plus the fact that fewer teams congregate during QB1 season due to STC's earlier start time.

How about a ranking of the top five teams (fully loaded) in order outside of QB1 season?

BO

(Did Bobby really describe them as great people? Wow.) :D

Hmmmm...One bad week and 86th Street is already in the dust bin of history. :(
Since you've already been beaten up over this, I won't risk the fifteen yard penalty for piling on...

Don't you mean "rank the teams (fully loaded) outside the onset of hockey season"?
I'm sure that the timing of the two is purely coincidental... :P

Thats right BO. SPCL K never plays STC during QB1.

And I assume you mean fully loaded in the roster sense as opposed to fully loaded as in 3 hours of drinking before the game even starts sense!! Just wanted to clarify!!!! (Only kidding)

Also lets not forget some of the strong soloists out there. Not everyone plays as a team. Just in the Twin Cities alone (my old stomping grounds ) BUG, Monarc and El Sid are very strong solo players and are capable of winning the nation on any given week, and have. There are I'm sure many many others who play strong solo. Im no slouch myself but generally cant hold a candle to the aformentioned group.
