A B-Town Friday Night

didn't really feel like heading to downtown so, Anthro and myself just kicked it in the hometown ... the usual suspects, running mates (Prophet and Roldy) were noticeably absent, while a returning Dumpling sold us out ... Anyhow, it was J-Smooth vs. Anthro, not in terms of "The Game" though, we put the "artillery" down for one night and settled our differences like men in a round of billiards ... The results? ...

8-Ball (Best of 7): Anthro 4 - J-Smooth 3
-notes: J-Smooth sunk the eight ball pre-maturely in the decisive 7th game, thus Anthro didn't "win", J-Smooth lost ...

9-Ball (Best of 7): J-Smooth 4 - Anthro 2
-notes: Anthro took the first game, J-Smooth took the second, Anthro the third ... Then J-Smooth in a statement of dominance reeled off three straight wins ... the highlight was definitely the 5-9 combo for J-Smooth's fourth win ...

I didn't want Anthro to be all bitter the rest of the night, so I said that we should play a sudden death game, winner-take-all, but I allowed Anthro to pick the game, and allowed him to break first, so he would have no excuses ... he picked 8-Ball ...

Results? ... It was pretty back and forth ... now fast forward to the later stages of the game ... Anthro had 4 balls left on the table, myself 3 (both including the final 8-ball) ... I missed my final shot, and in a pressure-packed performance, Anthro sunk his final 4 to win it ...

J-Smooth observations: Anthro needed his A-game to get that last win ... I've never seen him so focused and determined in any of our past games ... 9-Ball is J-Smooth's game, while 8-Ball is Anthro's, however, I'm slowly gaining ground in terms of 8-Ball ... That's right Anthro, "as you can see, my 'Jedi' skills have far surpassed yours", LMFAO ...

As for the rest of the night ...

-caught a bit of the Lakers-Jazz game ...

-headed over to Sonny's ... which Anthro is finding every reason to hate ... because he has a fix on this other Sonny's-type joint in the east end, North York, called Johnny's ... afterwards, Anthro claimed Johnny's superiority in terms of quality and price ... As far as I'm concerned prices speak for themselves, but it's pretty hard to top Sonny's as compared to other places in the GTA ...

One,

- J -
