Man I Suck and My Team Is Last LOL
« on: January 07, 2009, 03:48:10 PM »
Well tonight was a weird night.  Not many strikes in a row.  Still averaged around 7 strike a game but kept bowling 190-200.  Nothing good, nothing bad.  First game, there appeared to be oil or my balls were cold from the snow.  There was no traction.  By the third game, I was standing around 30-35 (left) and throwing out to 2-3 board.  Still couldn't do s***.  My team starting off the 2nd half is 0-7 and in last place.  I'm pissed.  I think I should retire after this season.



P.S. I made all my 10 pins.

P.S.S. I left so many splits it was unbelievable - especially the 4-9.  My power is hurting my scores now.

If you were swinging the ball from 20 to 5 in the first game, then there was plenty of friction out there.

Not with his new Blue Dot.

Those things are a lot harder than their 1980's predecessors and won't bounce off the cushion like the ol' days.

Did I miss something?  I never saw any mention of a blue dot being used.

I left them outside in my car and my car got covered in ice and snow.

Couldn't find any friction but playing 20-5?  Unless you're using a BLue Dot or throwing 7.35 MPH, playing from fourth arrow to the ditch isn't for a lack of friction.

Before anyone births a  farm animal and tried to explain how fifth board isn't the ditch, I know that.  However, 20-5 isn't search for a cushion, either.

My point was that if you can swing the ball 15 boards, the lanes aren't tight.

Anyone wonder if any of what were saying is actually going into Necro's brain?

Necro's incredibly high level of douchness is well documented...it is funny that he keeps posting things like this to solidify his place at the top of the pile.

Say what you want but I am the most honest person on this site.  You don't hear me saying how I have the highest average, how I can beat everyone here, or how I am the best bowler.  I even ask for tips a lot.  Be nice.

Striking 7 times and not getting over 200 makes you sad.  Like that song, "you'd cry toooooo if it happened to youuuuuuu" da da da dun!
