As mentioned on mdbeerpong.com this week, there is a lot of ducking going on in the Towson League.  I wanted to start this thread to get everyone's thoughts.  
 
Barnes... care to enlighten us?

I'm not sure Tom's reasoning in posting what he did about the ducking, but I will offer my thoughts. Between our team, yours, Austin's, Joeys and Jeff's team there hasn't been any ducking. People were accusing Adam of ducking last night, but I don't know because we didn't try to play them
 
As with some of the other leagues, it seems to me that it's actually the less-skilled teams that are refusing to play the good teams. It's pretty frustrating because we can barely finish our 12 games without a 3 game series against the abovementioned teams. We were begging now two weeks in a row for ANY team to play us just so we could get our 12 in. The less experienced players don't realize that 1. you get better by playing better teams 2. they have no chance at all for the league/tournament title so a loss isn't killing them 3. a double-digit win night isn't going to earn them any more respect.
 
That's all. I didn't really see any ducking amongst the top teams last night.

I forgot to mention while our 11th game was going on against Bar Tabs 101 Aaron came over to our table and wanted to play us. Ryan and I told him to put their name tag down on the table. Aaron ended up NOT putting that name tag down. I think Aaron briefly discussed this idea with his smart partner and decided not to put that tag down.
 
Not really sure what happened there but I guess in your words that might be ducking?????

And I will say this now... There is no more hiding for Son's of Jor'el.  They are quietly making a bid for a top spot.  Their 2nd lowest strength of schedule has enabled them to be in 3rd place.  We'll see how their record pans out for the remainder of the season now that this has come to light...

There was no ducking going on with Epsilon 7. When we have our name tag on a table and that games is coming to a close very soon there's no reason for me to take my name off the table. That situation occurred when Austin wanted to play a game and no one would play them. He asked me if we wanted to play and I said that we were about to be up on the next table. That is not even close to ducking.

We ended up winning the League Championship and taking he title going undefeated. On our way we beat, McAllister, Drunkenballers, Just Give up Now, Dixie Normous, and then Dixie Normous again to take the Championship. I'd say those are some pretty good teams.
