Some may look at it as practice. Me, I'm a competitor, I give it my all either on league or tourneys. When you practice, you are not as concerned with certain things about your game, and you tend to overlook some key factors that could aid you in tourneys. I look at leagues with the same intensity as tourneys. I like leagues, some excellent bowlers bowl there. Not all tourney bowlers are the best, they are bowlers just like everyone else. People fear tourney bowlers because they bowl in tourneys, feeling as though they are in a higher level than someone who does not bowl tournaments as often like myself. But I believe that I can still hold my own as I have in tourneys past, capable of beating anyone at any time if my game is on.
