Where are the Score Sheets?

So, you play pool, fill out your score sheet when you remember, mail it in, hopefully within a couple of days of playing and then it's on to the next week. And the whole process starts again. You'll pick up your sheets again, all pristine, clean, perfect and not a drop of alcohol on them until 7:35 pm, unless your team is late. What happens to the score sheets after you play? Here's a compilation as of late:

Sheets get lost in the mail (this tends to happen to the same people over and over again-I'm convinced it's a mailbox conspiracy). There's a certain mailbox in Brooklyn that Barry will not use as his sheets were lost there twice.

My wife forgot to mail it. You know, you say this to me. I am a wife. Do not insult the wives of this world. We, the wives, do not forget anything. You know this to be true-we remind you in every fight, by bringing up the past, we do not forget anything, Oh, and, we were right then. too.

I gave the sheets to _____. The policy still remains the same, your score sheet must be post marked the day after play. At some places of employment, you can change the date of post mark. We will never know. Even when it shows up 2 weeks later. We have no inkling, you can get one over on us every week, with no penalty. Or, so you think.
