Iceman hates this

[Aslan]

What about Norm Duke?

He's probably the closest. Good call. He's a "little akward"...but I'd say he's closest. Every time I've seen him on TV he's been an absolute class act.

Ice...Ice...Ice...
1) Knowing Jesse Ventura isn't necessarily a plus. But it does explain the roids.
2) I've heard this all before. I've already heard trash talk after trash talk after trash talk...and all I gotta say is...I've faced opponents twice...I've won both times. And the only question I have is...when the trash talk turns into excuses (as to why/how you lost)...what will those excuses be? With Iceman being SO original...I doubt he'll borrow the reverse-block excuse or the non-maintained wood lanes excuse. I gotta think it will be a new and very original set of excuses.

Perhaps he'll play the age card..."it wasn't fair because I have a bad hip and Aslan is 20 years younger and a specimen of health and beauty."

Or...maybe he steals a page from the movie Kingpin and claims that in Missouri they bowl 15 frames to establish an average?

Or...maybe he plays the, "well, I decided to take it easy on ya" card.

I mean, it could be anything. Thats the real question...not whether I'll win....I ALWAYS win...it's what will the excuses be?? Will Jesse Ventura make an emrgency phone call to Iceman mid-game and call him away to some super secret wrestler/super hero convention in a tree fort??? We'll see.

Now, can I beat Rob? In Vegas?? Woo....not sure. Rob is a Jedi Master and I am but a Padawan. Beating Iceman...who is NOT Jedi material....who is more closely related to a moisture farmer...that will be easy....even for a padawan. But Rob? Hmm....in Vegas?? You have to understand...heavy oil is like kryptonite to the mighty Aslan. My first game of sweeps in Vegas was a 113!! Granted...I finished with a 184...but the point is...Vegas is evil. They put extra oil on the lanes so that people will get frustrated, stop bowling, and go lose money playing slot machines.

I like this post. All of it. I couldn't think of anything wittier or pithier to say. Good job, man!

some people are easily please, I guess? Are you sure your from Missouri???? Maybe a transplant from San Diego ? I read it, and so did several friends of mine, they all thought it was as Un-pithier as it gets? Are you that long lost brother of Aslan, that ran off with a traveling Carnival back in the early 90's?

He mentioned in and earlier thread that your job was ,,, guessing peoples ages and weights in that carnival, until they went bankrupt,,,,, do to inaccurate guesses. ( that is if you are his bro)?? (

surly your not that brother that ran away because Aslan and you shared a room, ,,,,,,, ,, and the closet was full undrilled bowling balls, and no place for your cloths??

Na,,,,, you can't be him???


I am betting my dog, pictured here, can beat you two out of three!! I am sure he would take you on for a couple boxes of Ole Roy cheese sticks.... he's not that greedy! But one hell of a bowler!

YOU have NO IDEA how hard it was to find bowling shoes for a 3 legged bowling Dog!

Aslan,,,, Aslan,,, Aslan,,,,, wow...

ICEMAN GOT SO HOT READING THIS PURE TRASH TALK, that I lost 50 lbs!!! I had to go back to the freezer, and get in my Iceman tray and add water!!!

There will be NO MERCY, you don't deserve one ounce! I will destroy you on any pattern you want, even dry concrete if you wish!
184???? I can do that between my legs, backwards!!!

113???? I have a dog with one leg missing that pushes a bowling ball with his nose that can beat that score!!


YOUR MINE,,,, aslan!!!!! MINE!!! 3 games scratch, no handicap!

Soon ICEMAN FRIEND of Jesse's will show you, with all your coaching and advice, that ME,,,, ICE can and will teach you a lesson!

If I win, you pay for all my gas out to Vegas! If You win, you give Iceman two of the bowling balls in your closet, and 100 bucks!
Sound FAIR.

Float like a Lepidoptera, sting like a Hymenoptera; eh, Iceman?

Its getting to be a thing of the past, missing ten pin's! today I had 8 on the seniors league! 100 percent today!!


Oil has been bad all season, have my lowest average, and scores at this alley, AMF in North Kansas City mo. I shot down the 10 arrow even moved to the right in line with the ten arrow, but the ball just sailed right on by picking up the 6-10 pin. Its been crazy with that new oil machine that is suppose to be state of the art.

I know many good bowlers that have left those lanes because the oil is crazy! Several experience bowlers are telling me that its not removing the old oil but putting oil on top of the old.

It bowled to me like the US Open Sports shot. Oil all the way across!

I tried bowing out side, NO GO!!

I tried bowing inside,, NO GO!!

mechanic told me a couple weeks ago that the oil removal part of their 3 year old new kegal deluxe oil machine was NOT SUCKING THE OLD OIL up on the removal cleaning trip. I guess they had many conversations with Kegal about the problem

He then hook a shop vac up to the line that sucks the old oil and grime off the lane, and found and object that might have been blocking the flow!

They thought it was fixed.

I DON"T THINK SO!!!

Its the only league I bowl on that I can honestly say the Oil situation needs to be fixed, or I am Done!

GOOD NEWS was shooting 100 percent today on 10 pins....

Best I could do was throw 10 arrow standing at 10 dot, and throwing 1/3 of my normal speed! IT was tough keeping it down that much. Even then, the Byte was timid in it move to the pocket, but at least it got there.

BAD oil, in my opinion is tougher to PLAY then a nicely laid sports pattern! With BAD OIL, its really hard to make a great adjustment!

Bwahaha.....not so easy to average 220 when the lanes aren't properly maintained, is it, Iceman! Not even with "the gift"!

, I wish I did have the gift! The gift of YOUTH!!! LOL I am nothing but a broken down old Iron Worker, that still has his moments of grander!! LOL

[MICHAEL]

I will say this, that 10 pin is not a problem anymore,,,, I think it was 75 percent HEAD!! I now step up knowing that its going DOWN!!

You know, there is a lot more "head game" to bowling than one might think.
