07.11.2007 review, very late, very sorry, NSPA
Sorry about the delayed review, hectic weekend!
Another fully booked night, with a full but attacking field, the triple "A" was played to its full potential, and Singer should take up residence in the snake! standard of play gets better every week. Some real surprises, great to see the Crazy Russians(eventually) back! A massive surprise, the bottom 3, maybe not so for the top 3.To think out of 45 games played, it would all come down to the last game who would take 1st place! Exciting ain't the word, considering NSPA is all fun and friendship with nothing to play for, apart from the weeks title as Champions, but all went quiet(a pin drop) then Vudoo and BZ took to the field, a loss but with 2 points would at least take them to a play off! A win was expected by all, even Moppy's resigned themselves to 2nd! Then BZ played and showed all their future potential by not only winning but taking a 4-0 victory! Which changed all! So the final standings, believe it or not are:
1st Moppy's T-Bags 30pts ( No.1 @ NSPA.. What more can I say, Moppy and Ed are the T Bags and are the team to beat, pure inspirational, look and learn! A perfect example for our new teams to follow, but maybe and I mean just maybe could of being usurped!
2nd Vudoo 28pts (No offence to all teams, but showed class and style throughout and should of walked away with the title, a mere 2 points in their final game would of gave them the overall win! But BZ, well they had other plans and took Vudoo 4-0! Just goes to show?
3rd Universal 27pts (Started with a defeat, then grew stronger and attacked as all expected, but pipped at the post)
4th BZ 26pts (2nd week in, and in the top 5! Learning curve means nothing to these guys. No stopping them now.)
5th DOA 22pts (Rotating a team all night, letting novices play and still blew away some major teams, good on ya's)
6th Dunno 21pts (Well I dunno, terrible start, then won their last 3 games, inspired by Dave and Wendy. Experienced showed towards the end.)
7th Mad Monks 20pts (Fantastic to watch, beat the big players, but whats up with finishing the job guys?)
8th Jakass 16pts (played great, but didn't get the results, i know and all the other teams know your a force to be reckoned with, the team all know will go far!)
9th Crazy Russians 14pts (A joy to have the Russians at NSPA, the peoples favourite, will see you on the 21st and my moneys on a top 5 finish!)
10th NVA 9pts (Ooops, what more can I say, maybe missing Roo? We all have bad nights, I'm sure it won't happen again. I still believe!)
It just doesn't get any better than this for a fun 3 man Tourney, NSPA are proud of you all. Have a better one, Daz
