Matchy’s NPP Game Draws Seven

It was another great night of old fashion limit poker. The attendees were Matchy, Duder1123, Boother36, Beerhog, Artic1Blast, Faldo and 7Jokers.

It was great to see 7Jokers back sitting with the mopes raking in the occasional pot.

Boother arrived a little late but brought some potato chips with him. This reminded Duder he had chips and dip in a crock pot in his car. Thanks guys for the munchies.

During the game, Matchy brought out his prize collection of authentic Detroit Tiger bats to show Artic1Blast. These bats had been used in actual games by Rusty Staub and Aurelio Rodriguez.

How one of the bats could have been used was the ‘butt’ of jokes for the rest of the evening. I’ll just leave it at that, because any attempt at humor on this issue would be beneath the dignity of this blog.

The game broke up a little early as both Boother and Beerhog said had early morning commitments. But for some reason, both wanted to borrow the Rusty Staub bat for the rest of the evening.

Thanks to Matchy for hosting another NPP game.

Daniel Joseph "Rusty" Staub (born April 1, 1944 in New Orleans, Louisiana) is a retired Major League Baseball player who played 23 seasons, from 1963 to 1985, for the Houston Colt .45s and Astros, Montreal Expos, New York Mets, Detroit Tigers, and Texas Rangers. He batted left-handed, and threw right-handed. He was a right fielder for much of his career, and also spent considerable time as a first baseman and as a designated hitter. During his tenure with the Detroit Tigers he was known to hang out with a mysterious man known only as "Faldo" which lead to many rumors and much speculation about the tendencies of both men.

Thanks Chesky for hosting the game. It was lots of fun to get together live with all the online boys!!

I wonder if Faldo swung from the other side of the plate…like his BBM idol Rusty did!?!??!
