HOT OFF THE AP WIRE!

URQUHART STAGES GLORIOUS RETURN AS FGPP CAPTAIN

PORTLAND, OR (AP)

It was a night like no other. After taking a week off, Captain Urquhart returned to his post. With a team over joyed by his return, the Captain made his first strategic decision. It was time for the rookie to start off the night. LeeAnn (our 'Hot Pocket', as her suggested nickname states) was thrown into the fray. Unlike many of the more seasoned players on the team, (Chewy, Bam Bam and Veto) she wasn't scared to take on that role. After having a less than ideal lag; she re-grouped and went on a serious run. With her opponent in tears, LeeAnn closed her out in the first game. After narrowly losing the second, she finished off with her first APA win. The crowd went wild and the team was on a role.

Captain Urquhart then made an error and put Bam Bam up against their Captain. The sneaky little SOB with his annoying facial hair confused our hero, and Bam Bam went down to defeat. As he left, he was muttering about wanting to go see his chicks. The poor man was so distracted my his new chickens that he couldn't be expected to actually play pool. But alas, a new father does have his distractions.

Chewy recovered for the team and took down his opponent. Our reporter has a few drinks into the evening, so stats are not available on this match. But alas, Chewy was successful in getting the team back on track.

Despite a mutiny attempt by Creapy, Cap Urquhart continued his fantastic player selection and put Creapy in against their best player. ( I really shouldn't have worn a g-string). Despite being scared by the opposing team, Creapy continued the run and won the clinching match for FGPP.

Poppa Ryder was going to close out the night. Would he continue the run that the team was on? Or would he roll over and get spanked? The tricky play by Bret confused our poor hero and he went down in a blaze of glory. Not before trying to concede the match a game early...but alas, he had to play it out.

After a successful return, many of those attending the match...and even many of the players...commented that not having Veto there squawking in their ear made playing much easier. That, and the superiour player decisions of Cap Urquhart over the opposing coach led to a very successful evening.
