close but no cigar
« on: April 12, 2005, 09:40:56 AM »
Last not, position round, we are bowling thr first place team tryin gto win the quarter and make the rolloffs.  we are 3 1/2 points behind them.....we lose the first game by 30 pins, but we win three individual points...we crush them the second game by over 160 pins, win 4 individual points....last game we need only 3 points to win the quarter, win the game, or if we lose the game, wint 3 individual points....so what do we do?  first bowler loses his point by 1 pin, he had 4 opens including 3 splits....bowler two loses his point by 4 pins, he had 4 opens, I win my point, bowlers 4 and 5 lose their points by less than 20 pins each, and we lose the game by 4 sticks, we still won total wood, took the week 15-13...but lost the quarter by 2 1/2 points.  very frustrating, once again this is a lesson in every pin counts....we had quite a few 6 counts on spares, and quite a few missed 1 pin spares that game.  as a team we threw 12 splits the last game......what a night
