Mouths- what do you do?
« on: November 28, 2007, 07:18:22 AM »
Hey guys I was wondering what you guys do when some one feels it nesccary to rip on you every week?

I got a dude on Tuesday nights that doesn't like the fact that I bring 5 balls with me every week though I rarly use more than 2 not counting the spare ball. After every shot someone throws he looks at me and yells ''you should change balls'' I don't mind it every once in awhile but every couple of frames and my patience is wearing thin.

Last night he heard me remark that I the head on the lane was burnt out because I throw my Nitro with no hand at a 4 pin and the ball actually flared up before it got to the arrows ( yeah you heard me right the oiler was all screwed up) All the rest of the night I heard '' the lane is slanted change balls''

What would you guys do?

Funny thing Tracy, I read this and thought "punch him in the face...that'll shut him up."

Or, tell him to pick any ball in your bag and you'll bowl him $100 a game using only that ball. Until he does that AND beats you, he has to shut up.

Are you guys a bunch of wusses?  Laugh and keep bowling. Or talk trash back. If you hit him, you better have game, or you may get your A whooped too.

Yeah, we bowled that guy tonight.

We served them up pretty well.  I shot 680.  One of my teammates shot 738 and our handicap bowler shot 511.  We took all 7 points from his team.  He opened in the 9th and 10th frames of a close game 3, which had our group laughing.  He left pissed off, which was good enough for me.

Usually, if someone is talking trash like that I'll let my bowling do my talking.  Don't know exactly why, but it seems to light a fire in me and my scoring goes way up.  I wish I could do that all the time.

If you let that talk get to you, then he has accomplished his goal and got you thinking other than the task at hand which is to bowl.

I only carry two balls and a spare ball going to league.  The conditions are fairly even week to week so a large variety of balls won't help me any.   On the rare occasions when idiots have asked why I bring two and only use one of them, I have politely explained it to them.  I tell them I decide which ball to use based on who I'm bowling.  I'll then point to the one I'm not using and say I use that one against the good bowlers.  This one here I'm using, it's for bowling against idiots.

Yes, go punch the guy  Violence is the answer.  The funny thing is that the morons suggesting it probably don't have the eggs to do something like that themselves.  

Beat him on the lanes.  It's hard to talk trash when you lose.

I would first just talk trash back to him.  Eventually if you really lay into a person like this they will shut up.  Just embarrass him!

If all else fails then kick his teeth down his throat!

The whole key is whether you can beat him or not.  If he is beating you in average by 20 pins then you may have to resort to other measures.  If you are kicking his tail consistently, then others have pointed out many of the possible options.

Depends on how witty you are???  Can you talk trash back to him in a mature way that makes him look as stupid as he is??  That is the best medicine.  He is probably just a big bully trying to show off to his friends.  Make him look bad with wit and/or more strikes!!!

Usually when someone talks trash they are jealous of you. To me thats the highest form of flattery. Usually I dont do anything when someone bullies me like that on the lanes, all I do is just flat out beat his ash on the score sheet. If he says anything after that I just say "I guess you showed me whos the better bowler tonight." That usually get the person to shut up or walk a-way. The last time this happened to me I shot 767 and took 7 points from their team. BTW, this was a 3 man leauge and the other 2 bowlers were not there that night so I single handedly KICKED THEIR ASH!!!!! Never heard another comment from this guy or any other person in that leauge.

While paying someone to kick his arse or banging his wife would be funny, in reality probably the best thing to do is ignore him.  I let one of these types get to me once and had a meltdown on their team and it still bothers me that I let the guy get to me.  Can't let these guys get into your head at all because they are just distracting you from bowling.

Whenever someone complains about the amount of balls I have I usually just say yeah it's pretty cool I want to get some more actually.
