on or after a strike, what is your MO?
« on: August 26, 2016, 02:33:14 PM »
We all see different reactions on or after a strike. Some ppl look over their shoulder as they turn around and gaze at the ceiling like he can see the stars in the sky. Some pump their fist, or hop on one leg, or walk it out.

The funniest one I've seen is a lady who gets pumped up like she's going to power lift 100kg. from her low post position, she spins around, and slowly gets up grunting like she's going to soil her panties. Then she finishes with a warriors yell and her fist in the air. I was overseas and one member of the Korean team did this......
Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

I start to cry a little and wave to everyone like I just won Miss America. I thank all the little people too.

It depends on when I need to strike, honestly. If I want to get in your face, I'll slap it out, run it out, raise all kinds of hell. I've calmed down over the years, but I have my moments.

Wow.  I'd really like to see that.

I try to duplicate this:


Dale Eagle and Kimmo Littonen have all of that beat.

but seriously, I'd be the same.. slap it out, run it out, clenched fist at the heart, especially depending on how pure the shot was)..

Normally, I'd let the ball do the talking nowadays, but if it is someone who's trying to get into my head, I'd love... just once, I'd love to pull out the New Zealand All Black's Haka and perform it in their face. Unfortunately, the house let alone the league will probably want me to take it outside, as it can be more of a physical challenge.

I just give the crotch chop & walk back... stare at the opposing team hoping they don't like it.

If it looks like a pure shot I may just turn around and walk away before it hits the pocket.

Opponent did that to me once...

.. while I turned around and laughed on the inside as he didn't see that he left a stone 8.

Will expand arsenal after I polish my spares.

With 600 revs and more carry than Parker Bohn III, how don't you strike?

I don't do anything different than if I have a spare or an open.

Keep my head down, stay humbled and focus on the next one...  As the above poster mentioned, I keep the same reaction rather it's a strike, spare, or open.
