Those people who think their god's gift to bowling
« on: July 14, 2004, 06:15:51 AM »
I know a few of them.

For example, one of my team mates dad. He thinks he's the best thing bowling has ever seen. And it pisses me off so, so bad. Ask him about a ball, drilling, RG, and he'll have no idea. It's funny but annoying.

Another one, a pro shop owner. This guy cant drill a ball to save his life. And to make it worse, he was fired for stealing 16 bowling balls from the shop. Seeing this guy bowl makes me sick, he has no balance at all, rather ugly ball roll. But he thinks hes the best bowler in the nation. And to make it ironic, the guy I was talking about first goes to this guy to get his balls drilled because he thinks this guy is the best driller there is.

Tell your storys about the people who think their, "God's gift to bowling."

If he owns the shop...did he fire himself?

I used to bowl a league that was full of these.  It was a intramural league, basically a bunch of wieners that won't bowl any other leagues.  I remember seeing quite a few of them showing off, I believe it was an 8lb ball they hook across the entire lane and hit the 7 pin with.[rolls eyes]  

If its one thing I have learned, no matter where you go its always more of the same.  I saw it in Ok when I lived there, Tx when I lived there and ND since I moved up here.

I'm the best bowler ever! I only throw a gutter two or three times a game now and I'm not using the house ball I stole anymore I bought a triple extreme x factor and got it drilled for maximum hooking! I don't need to learn to spin it the ball does it for me I don't need a coach there all idiots compared to me! I need 10 more bowling balls to be good I don't know about lane courtesy I just go sure no one wants to hear my theories on bowling because there all jealous aren't I the best!

Who hasn't met someone like that?

Channel,

Unfortunately because of the great bowling ball technology and the way too easy lane conditions that are prevelant all over the country, there are these type bowlers everywhere, in every house.  If the shot gets tough, these "scratch" bowlers move to another house where they have more "talent".

Nobody wants to learn the sport anymore, all the nuances, the little tricks.  Just drill me a ball so I can stand here, look here, and strike every time.

Ya know this is the slow time of the year, and He knows I need to make a few bucks, but I have lost 3-4 ball sales because after watching bowler X, I told him where to stand and where to look, and after the "I don't like standing there" quote, they proceed to get 4-5-6 in a row and suddenly have found a new toy.  (One guy did tip me $40)

ugggghhhh......
