After a day of doing nothing but Interviews at the theater, I was drained when I arrived at the bowling alley. Tired as shit and I never really came around the whole night. First game second frame in I missed a 10 pin conversion and it wouldn't be the last either as I missed probably a good 3 or 4 spares on the night that should have been converted. I wish I was playing no-tap last night because the single pin leaves were my best friend. So what do you do? Set your standards lower. Single pin leaves? Well that's 90% and an A-. So instead of busting the hell out I would instead encourage my team with the "Yeah! A-!" whenever they left a pin. Now I don't know if this encouraged them or not but it got me through the night.
Second game I finished decently which tells you again how bad it could have been. The third game was a bust and it was deja-vu from last week:
Third Game Strikes per lane:
Lane 33- 0
Lane 34- 6
If I hadn't opened in the first frame I would have had a dutch 200 going all the way into the 10th frame.
The most hillarious thing on the night was the fact that our team was the last ones on the lane as everyone finished before us and the people that run the league were waiting for us to finish and people were busting about getting home to watch "House" at 9pm. So in the 9th frame I look up and all 3 of my teammates rolled a 9 count in the 9th frame. I get up to the approach on lane 33 and I declare a re-rack. So I reset the pins on 33 proclaiming that they "looked a little bit off set" Which pissed off a good amount of people who were wanting to leave. It was hillarious let me tell ya. So anyways I end up leaving a 10 pin which totally botched the whole idea but anyways....
We lost 5 0f 7 as this was the first week of the second third of the season (weeks 11-20) We sit if not back in the cellar where we belong, damn close to it.
No confidence building.......
Till Next Week..........
