The new averages kick in, thank goodness.... and our team will be down almost 20 pins from what we were carrying.... probably due to me, their token female! Congrats to Juice on his 299! Everyone around us was having a hard time carrying the 7's and 10's, due to the new pins, I guess. We won 4 last night..... but so did a bunch of the other teams on the left side of the page. This league is going to be a touch more competitive than it has been in the last couple years..... alot of carry-over people from the ABC Independent. I am really surprised about the brackets, or lackthereof.... I didn't know there were new pins. I didn't have trouble carrying corners. I left 1 7pin (very light), and 1 10pin (2nd shot in the 10th of 3rd game). |

After doing the math, I came in with a 219 and after 12 games I will be at 225. Not much change. Michele was coming in with a 190. Before last night she had a 202 and only shot a 580, so she should be around 197 or 198. Thats a big change for her. I've told her for awhile that she can average that high, but she hasn't thought she could. She didn't shot that will last night because she said that she pulled something which through her timing off for most of the night. I think she'll be able to carry that average also this year.... stronger team this year, and the Monday night league will help also. Go MJR ! |

I am surprised that you didn't notice as many "bird dogs" flying this week...... they wanted to fly, but just STOPPED, like they were made of lead! Yep, new pins...... |

I could tell they were new...they didn't have much mix to them. As far as bird dogs, EFB had 2 in the 10th frame the 3rd game to beat me in the eliminator...lucky baaaaaaaaaaaaaasturd...lol |

I guess I just didn't notice because when I threw it right and hit the pocket I didn't need them. Everything went down and to the back. ;D |

Bowled last night at Arm I and yes they are new pins. Didn't have trouble carrying until the 3rd game on lane 19....
I would have to agree with PBA, that 210 today is equivalent or close to 190 of the early and mid 80's... Back then I carried 215 to 220 in most leagues. But I was bowling a lot more back then, than I do now and was bowling PBA Regionals in 85, then a short stint on the National Tour in late 85 and early 86.... back then, I was bowling 50 to 75 games a week, sometimes more and had done so from 1980 to 1986.... that was a lot of bowling...lol...

Are you sure it was the lanes breaking down or was the alcohol kicking in...lol J/K. Nice shooting. Last night at AMF Diamond, it was an interesting night. Shoot 235, 213, 241, 689 with 4 opens. It's hard to explain except I struggled at times on the left lane, but then string 6 or 7 in a row...lol. As a team, we lost 3. |

I only drink (alcohol) on Tuesday night....Why, I don't know, I guess it's just my routine....lol.... I drink on Friday nights but I don't bowl on that night either... ;D On occasion, I'll have a drink or two on Monday or Thursday night but I'd say that's about once every three months... |

Shot like crap last night overall. Started out the night great. 246 (open in the 10th), 218 (open 8th & 9th), 166 (SO LOST), 630. Things were going good until the 8th frame of the 2nd game. from the 2nd game 8th frame through the 3rd frame of the 3rd game, I had 5 opens out of 6 frames. 2 were easy spares and the other 3 were huge splits. I was pretty lost the 3rd game. Not sure if it was me or the lanes. I was feeling tires last night and not with it. We lost 3 again, but I won 10.00 off "thedoctor". BONUS
