Just updating one league, as the other postponed last week due to weather:

• Sunday Niters: The Three Stooges won four points from Here for the Beer and are now in 4th place, nine points behind Broads With Balls, who lead Ten Is Enough by four points and Here For the Beer by eight points. Adam & Steve will be Sunday night’s opponents.

The show had to go on without me, so to speak, so here’s a standings update, with the week’s results as best as I know them:

• Brunswick Mixed: Let’s Mix Em Up won all four from Living On a Spare and are now tied for 7th with Dawg Pound and Party of Six,  nine points behind Minds In the Gutter, who lead Spare Change and Creeden’s Mustangs by a point and Sweet Rolls by a point and a half. Weather permitting, my team bowls against Party of Six tonight. Si had a 180 high game last week, sweeping scratch and handicap game and series honors in the men’s “D” division.
• Sunday Niters: The Three Stooges (Ed bowling alone) won six points from Ball Busterz and are now in 4th place, nine points behind Ten Is Enough, who lead Broads With Balls by four points and Here For the Beer by eight points. My team is scheduled against Here For the Beer on Sunday night. Ed’s 248 and 624 earned him high score mention.

My Week 23 bowling, frame-by-frame

I was quite out of sorts on this night, and the other league members noticed. It would turn out that I was in the throes of a health scare, but I’m still amazed I bowled as well as I did, particularly after the first game; there wasn’t more than one open frame in those two games, with a double also in both.

Result: 147-191-189=527
Average (69 games): 182
Average for last 9 games: 175
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 575

Composite average (147 games): 181

Weirdly, we only won one point, a tie in the first game.

Happy to report that I am feeling better, and hope to return to bowling activity a week from Wednesday night.

My Week 27 bowling, frame-by-frame

It didn’t appear it was going to be my night, anyway, but I was not myself in the third game, for a reason I may or may not post later. That said, however, I did compose myself enough to throw the double in the last frame to save total for my team.

Result: 147-162-147=456
Average (78 games): 180
Average for last 9 games: 164
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 568

Composite average (144 games): 181

That game we won by enough for total was the second game. Tom had the best night of the four of us.

Just one league to update, due to the Sunday postponement:

• Brunswick Mixed: After winning three points from Spare Us, Let’s Mix Em Up is in a tie for 13th with The Fun Team, 11 points behind Spare Change, who lead Creeden’s Mustangs by three points, and four points over Minds in the Gutter and Gutt Er Done. Assuming no weather postponement, our opponents tomorrow night are The Fun Team, as it is a position round. Si had the high handicap series of the week in the men’s “D” division.

My Week 26 bowling, frame-by-frame

Lately, I’ve been finding that my Marvel Peal has been my better ball later in the night, as the hang spot develops down lane. This was kind of a mixed bag night, with my two over-average games only just getting me to my average.

Result: 164-196-183=543
Average (75 games): 181
Average for last 9 games: 185
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 559

Composite average (141 games): 182

Si has been our steadiest bowler recently, and he was over average in all three games again tonight. Team won three after losing a close first game.

My usual league standings update, after Week 25:

• Brunswick Mixed: After failing to win points from The Fun Team, Let’s Mix Em Up is in 15th place, 11 points behind Spare Change, who are four points ahead of Minds in the Gutter and Creeden’s Mustangs and five ahead of Gutt Er Done. Spare Us are tonight’s opposition, with a position round looming next week.
• Sunday Niters: After splitting 4-4 with Here for the Beer, The Three Stooges are in 3rd place, six points behind Ten Is Enough, who are four points ahead of Broads With Balls. Here for the Beer is eight points behind the lead in 4th. Suzy’s Crew are Sunday night’s opponents. Harry’s 275 received high score mention on the standing sheet.

My Week 22 bowling, frame-by-frame

There were just not enough good shots tonight, as I had six leaves of the difficult variety, and only put together a turkey and a double in the second game. Except for the last 10 pin, I did make all of my single-pin spares.

Result: 161-199-172=532
Average (66 games): 182
Average for last 9 games: 191
Next week’s AVG+1 score: 553

Composite average (138 games): 182

The night looked bleak after two games, but Harry led a third game charge with a 275, giving us the third game by enough for total. Ed also chipped in a couple of deuce games.
