Yep. The best bowler in our bowling league averaged a 219 this year. I've seen several people average 225 over the years...one of my best friends had a 231 average 4 years ago and it seemed like he was turning in a 750 every ****ing week...

but no ****ing backhand spinner is going to average a 225...you can't constantly leave 7 and 10 pins and be a 225 bowler...and there is no ****ing way a guy who isn't throwing a correct hook has an average a 225. At least say 200 and make it believable.

He already said that style causes him to have little pin action...well, guy, if you don't have pin action, you aren't AVERAGING a 225.

He may have got lucky once and bowled a 220, and now he thinks that was his average. Kind of like a golf n00b who managed to par a hole once and thinks he can shoot in the 70s.

Call BS if you wish, but some in some crate was our senior year jerkoff 'Lifetime Sports' PhysEd bowling records. Haven't gazed upon it in a while, nearing 25 years, but it was over 220, almost sure in the 225 range. And if my terminology is off it was because I wasn't taught. We just went to the alley 3x a week for a semester and free-bowled.

Give it up. You might be able to kid yourself into thinking you averaged 225 without knowing anything about the game and with a girlish backhand release, but any real bowler knows that your story is total bullshit.

You may have bowled a 225 GAME once. Anyone can do it once. There's a huge ****ing difference between doing it once and AVERAGING 225.

If I get a hole in one, does that mean my average score for 18 holes of golf is 18?

I'm not trying to be a dick...I just find it incredibly hard to believe a backup bowler can average a 225...when the best of the best that bowl at our local bowling alley will average that every 5 years or so...and generally between 215 and 220.

I've bowled a 300 before. Bowled it 2 years ago when I was 22 at Olympia Lanes in St. Joe. It was during a practice game, but who the **** cares. A 300 is still a 300.

A 300 in practice is a nice accomplishment. Congratulations!

But it doesn't really count. I've bowled four 300s in league competition and one in a tournament. I've also bowled two 300s while practicing. Whenever anybody asks me how many 300s I've bowled, I always say "five". It would never even occur to me to say "seven".

Nobody cares how many home runs Eric Hosmer hits in batting practice.

Sorry that isn't a good analogy. Batting practice and facing a live pitcher throwing sliders, change ups and 90 plus mph heat is drastically different than an ex back up catcher throwing straight 70 mph meatballs in batting practice.

Are the pins moving when you bowl in a league game? That would be a better analogy.

To, me a legit 300 game is a 300 game.

Why would you say anything else?

Dodgers get Kemp and Crawford back and Healthy they might be a force.

I think it was Hud mocking the comparison to Bo during yesterdays game. Something along the lines of get back to me when he puts a linebackers flat on his back in the end zone.
