Already think about the Fall.

i understand about the corrections .. i have a problem child at my local center where he does no wrong and likes to tell everybody else what to do...it drives me crazy....

Ah, I see that FIGJAM's are everywhere. Some folks are so clueless.

Our DD bowler didn't show up last night, nor did she call any of us to let us know. Nothing like a little consideration. Exactly nothing like it.

I signed up for 2 Summer leagues at the center I expect to bowl at in the fall. This will give me a chance to meet some of the bowlers and test out the lanes. One is a 9-Pin No-Tap league, the other a Match Point Draft Trios Scratch League. I talked with the owner Saturday and he said both are good leagues to get my feet wet and have fun.

I suppose I'm fortunate. The fall league I joined is the first 5-man team I've been with since 1995. Over the previous summer, I bowled in a 3-man league when the proprietor asked if I would bowl with them in the fall. Of course I accepted-although I didnt know the other 3 guys. We get along great, and will bowl the state events this spring.

In last summer's trio league, a friend and I decided to bowl, but needed a third. The house provided a third, and he was a very good bowler, averaging 210+. However, his hygiene was less than desirable. We learned to tolerate and stand down-wind.

I've only changed centers once, and that was at the end of the season. The team was always late to the house, late for their turn, generally, always the last out of the house. Yes, we were that team. I didnt want to stay at the house as most of them bowled in other leagues at the same house and I didnt want to explain why I wasnt bowling with them.
