No Molly In Da Club

(Riverton, NJ) - You won't find any MDMA use at our Derby event. Last year, the closest thing i saw to contraband was someone selling small Snickers bars labeled "Not For Individual Sale".
Guess which of these guys would later test positive for ecstasy?

Vin Scully Will Be Back For Another Year

(Los Angeles, CA) - Vin Scully is staying in the booth for the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 86-year-old Hall of Fame announcer will return for his record 66th season with the team in 2015. The announcement was made by in Korean, Spanish and English by players Hyun-Jin Ryu, Yasiel Puig and Justin Turner on the Dodger Stadium video board in the second inning of Tuesday night's game against Atlanta.

The news was greeted with loud cheers and a prolonged standing ovation for Scully, who stood and waved to fans from his booth, where he hugged his wife, Sandi.

A decision about Scully's future has become an annual rite of passage in recent years as he evaluates his health and his family's wishes in considering whether he wants to continue.
T
 TCoS will have to wait at least one more season to have Mr. Scully call our events.

Tiger Woods To Miss (Golf) Masters

Tiger Woods will miss the Masters after undergoing back surgery earlier this week for a pinched nerve that has been hurting him for several months, the world's No. 1 player said on his website.
It will be the first time in 20 years that Woods will not play in the event. "After attempting to get ready for the Masters, and failing to make the necessary progress, I decided, in consultation with my doctors, to have this procedure done," Woods said in the statement.

"These Go to Eleven"

The Kings have taken 7 of 11.

It's In The Books

It's a Big Money Game and these guys are Big Money Players.

Website Continues to Function Flawlessly...

(Riverton, NJ) - We didn't realize it was such an accomplishment. It turns out some people aren't able to keep their web sites operating as smoothly as the TCoS site. Our site has been functioning well for over a year without even one full-time staff member.


When someone asks, you can say, "Yes, we have a website."

Save the Pro Bowl!

(Honolulu, HI) - Progress threatens to change our greatest All-Star contest, the annual Pro Bowl. For years, true football fans knew the real action came the week after the Super Bowl. A few years back, Roger & Co. decided to move the Pro Bowl to the week before the Super Bowl. The effect was that even the players losing the conference championship games would look for a way out of the Pro Bowl.  Now, the NFL is changing the format of the game, instituting a captain's draft and eliminating kickoffs.

The answer is simple, keep the Pro Bowl in Hawaii. Return it to after the Super Bowl. Allow the game to occupy its rightful position as the premier all-star contest in all of sports.

SAVE THE PRO BOWL!

Matt Wins Triple Crown & 50 Million Dollar Bonus

(Riverton, NJ) - On a night that felt more like a coronation than a contest, Matt H entered an exclusive club. By winning all three TCoS events, Matt joined Rick G. as the only winners of the prestigious Triple Crown of Shuffleboard.

Some cynics have commented that, with two winners in two seasons, winning the Triple Crown of Shuffleboard is not as great an achievement as baseball's Triple Crown. The naysayers are wrong. There was a 45 year gap between Carl Yastrzemski and Miguel Cabrera. However, before Yastrezemski's Triple Crown in 1967, Frank Robinson won it in 1966, just a year earlier. Additionally, in 1933, the Triple Crown was won in both leagues...both by Philadelphia players! Philadelphia Athletic Jimmie Foxx won the AL Triple Crown while the Phillies' Chuck Klein won the NL Triple Crown.

What's the lesson? Winning a Triple Crown is a huge feat. But sometimes huge feats come in bunches.

Winning the Triple Crown and collecting the 50 million dollar bonus.

2nd Annual Derby Day Shuffleboard Tournament Recap

(Riverton, NJ) - Our heroes lived up to their name. The Quate Kings won while barely breaking a sweat. Never threatened, they rolled off three wins to take the the title before Mayweather even left his locker room. Runners-Up REO Teabaggin' put forth a valiant effort in the final game, but the Kings showed to be in a class of their own.. The rest of the field has their work cut out for them if they hope to challenge the Quate Kings next year.

The Kings celebrate and prepare to enjoy krimpets.

TCoS Encourages You To Choose Public Transportation

(Riverton, NJ) The Triple Crown of Shuffleboard would like to remind competitors and spectators to park your car and use public transportation. The tournament site is a short 5 minute walk from the Riverline's Riverton station.

Royal Discord ?

(Riverton, NJ) - The Quate Kings may be feuding.
Since announcing their participation in Derby Day 2013, everything coming out of the Quate Kings' camp has been positive. Until now. A highly placed source says their are some awkward feelings between these two shuffleboard legends. No one wants to go on the record, but it seems Matt's potential Triple Crown is testing their professionalism. Last year, Rick won the Triple Crown. If Matt wins this year, does it diminish Rick's achievement last year? We hope that when the games start, all of this drama won't matter.




Are these two kings fighting?
