That's what I thought....Page 1 of Google....what have you losers done to get this blog some exposure?!?!
I think it is pretty obvious that the phrase was coined specifically to induce blog hits at an alarming rate for anyone searching google on the phrase "geek captain." Seriously, page 1 is actually pretty cool...in a geeky kind of way. What made you think to search google for "Geek Captain"?
Geek captain is a takeoff of geek dice. Geek dice, as you will fondly recall, is basically bar dice played with 20 sided dice. Upon indulging in a couple of alcoholic beverages and watching Dominic James single handedly lose the Marquette game in the final minute, it was decided by Hacker, Brian and myself that we could make a variation on "Ship-Captain-Crew". Same concept, use the 20 sided "geek" dice, you need 20-19-18 (instead of 6-5-4) then the sum on the final 2. I think we ended up where you get 5 rolls, and if you roll a 1 its wild. Thus, the phrase "Geek Captain" was coined.
