    Default Giving a lot of pins tonight

    Looking at the team we are bowling tonight, going to be one of those night were we better be on, or we could lose by a lot.
    On average each bowler on our team will be giving up 30 pins a game in handicap.
    When we have had this happen in the past the team we are up against gets hot and bowls 30 over their average, that makes for a painful night as a team.
    Oh well do your best and let the pins fall where they will.

    You know I like a challenge as much as the next guy, and normally the pins you are giving are needed, just hard to over come some nights.
    Actually looking forward to it tonight, second night back off the injury list, so good, bad or in different, I am just happy to be back on the lanes.

    So last night I matched up with a guy and only had to give 4 pins, and it was a blast as we went back and forth the first two games, and I pulled out the win, then the third game came along and well I got spanked, but hey winning 2 of 3 isn't too bad of a night.
    And we had a great time egging each other on all night.
    Wish every week could be like that.

    That's what I like about bowling people who aren't stuck up jerks. It's a competition and talking trash in fun is fine with me. I always let them start it though as you never know what kind of day somebody had. I can take it and don't mind giving it back.

    I agree with you Billf, it is great to talk some trash, or at the very least congratulate the guy when he throws a nice shot.
    Bowling should be fun, not so serious.
