question for everyone
« on: December 22, 2003, 06:16:50 AM »
ok another one of our big questions that everybody disagrees with.  here we go.

If you had a choice in a round robin type match play, (where 4th place plays 3rd place then winner of that plays 2nd and the winner of that plays first) would you rather qualify 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th place?

personally I like qualifying 2nd because that way the lane doesn't have a lot of time to change and when you start bowling on it you won't have to worry about as much of a change then you would if you were 1st.  and i'd rather be 2nd over 3rd or 4th because you only have to go thru 2 games instead of 3 and usually the lanes don't change very much in 1 game.

And their off!!!!

Second is my favorite spot. Sitting out one game gives me a chance to take a bit of a break, but not get TOOOOOO stiff. I can throw a few balls during the first match, and keep loose, too.
Also - coming off a big win over the competition is a great way to psych out the leader, who has been sitting longer, and is stiffer than I am.

For me it depends.  If I can keep throwing and moving around than number one seed all the way.  If like some of the tourney's around here you have no oportunity to keep bowling then I say third.  With my knees the way they are I don't need time to sit around and get stiff.

I don't really play cards and I am not 79, but it fits together somehow.
