Brewskee-Ball: Skeeson 1 - Week 2

Here's your weekly Brewskee-Ball: Season 1 update from our fearless leader, Brian!"We don't know who we are until we skee what we can do." -- Martha Grimes

Greetings High Rollers!

Hopefully Week 1 gave everyone a glimpse into how the league works - scoring, terminology, scheduling....and $1 Schlitz?!?!?

Now it's time to roll on into Week 2!

1) Buckhead - This Week
2) Stats and Schedule
3) New SKEESPN Covers
4) Make-up Night
5) Last Week's Trivia
6) This Week's Trivia
7) Mark Your Calendars Now!

Here we go....

1) BUCKHEAD - THIS WEEK

Week 1 always runs behind schedule due to everyone learning scoring....we shouldn't be that behind schedule anymore. Please get to the bar 10 - 15 minutes before your match to ensure a smooth running and punctual evening. If the first games start late it throws everyone else's schedule off, so please get there a little early. Thanks!

Due to a holiday party, matches will be at 8:30, 9:30, and 10:30 this week. If you're listed on the schedule, you're in for this week. If not, we'll see ya on the 19th for make-up night!

Wes and Kelly Anne from The Real World and the Challenges will be at Buckhead on Thursday night. I'm going to challenge Wes to a shirtless skeeball duel. Maybe Kelly Ann too....depends on my liquid courage. Anyways, they're trying to charge a cover to get in to see them (really?!?!? I get them for free on cable), but if you're a Brewskee-Baller you're in for free. There'll be a list at the front door so you don't have to deal with that. If you're bringing any friends/co-workers/lovers that aren't registered in the league, shoot me an email so I can add them to the list.

2) SCHEDULE AND STATS
Week 2 Schedule: http://www.brewskeeball.com/?pk=80
Week 1 Stats: http://www.brewskeeball.com/?pk=80

Stats are pretty self-explanatory. The top 8 teams (highlighted in orange) at the end of 8 weeks will advance to the Brewskee Mug Tournament. Team rankings are determined by cumulative score, not average. This is why it's imperative to make-up any matches you might miss.

The Top 16 High Rollers at the end of the 8 weeks will advance to the BROTY (Best Roller of the Year) Tournament. If you make all 8 weeks, you get to drop your lowest score, which obviously helps your average. If you miss 2 or more weeks, you are ineligible for the BROTY.

The BROTY is an amazing combination of march madness bracket-style elimination, beer, skeeball, and touchdown dances! You don't want to miss it!

3) NEW SKEESPN COVERS

4) MAKE-UP NIGHT
If you've missed a night (or are going to miss a night), make sure you come out for the Make-Up night on Friday, December 19th. I'll buy the first few pitchers! After all the matches have been made up I'll see if Buckhead will let us get some free skee practice in.

Teams that will need to make-up:
That's What Skee Said
Skeet Shooters
Skeen Smith All-Stars (2)
The Krzyzweskee's (2)
Skeez Nuts

Friday, Dec 19th 7:00 - ?
