Title: Ouch!! 135.67 average for 9 games

Look at the very bottom of the list. Somebody named Dan Ham finished #37 out of 37 spots. I am sure he did not have a very good time bowling in the qualifying session for this weeks PBA event.

I will give him kudos for finishing it out..

If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

Saw that too jk,

Actually, unless he would have faked an injury or truly did fake an injury, he would have to finish or be fined.  That is my understanding at least.

Who needs a 300 or 800, when I have a 294 and a 295!?!?!

There was a guy who shot 900+ for 8 games qualfying in one of the southern regionals earlier this year.
--------------------
I should just quit bowling, oh wait I already tried that.
Now that I am back and my Saws are sharp again, I am ready to cut some wood.

Actually Dan Ham only averages in the 160's in league play, he just thought it would be fun to bowl in. Wish I had $300 just to throw around to have fun with.

Uh, the "+" symbol means "over" 900.  Like he shot over 900, 900+.

If it were good it would have been +900

900+ means he shot like 915 or something for 8 games

Amazing the difference the placement of "+" makes......

"900+" for 8 is HORRIBLE, yet "+900" for 8 is TERRIFIC!

no deadmoney has won twice  this guy is terrible i mean couldnt shoot 220 ever on that its terrible i was watching nathan bohr who was on that pair and in 5 games he didnt have a pocket or half pocket strike all crossovers its was making me sick considering i would have had a chance ot make it except work woulndt let me off last night if i would made it  the left side didnt change much just needed a solid that had a strong roll no flip just good roll

Huh?  Is this actually a poker player's nickname?  I just thought it referred to newbies whose chance of winning was "dead" (hence deadmoney)....

See I was confused because when people say a series and put a + after it, MOST of the time its reffering to a good series. See what I mean?! And andy, I think hes saying that the deadmonkey is better then he is....

The scores were a little lower this week.  The part of the lane the played, the angle was not good for Del.  You needed to go up the lane more.  Brad Angelo was playing pretty straight for him.

On the other hand, the pattern played pretty well for Carolyn.  Going up and at 'em is her best game, plus she doesn't miss spares.  She will make the 64 this year!

Go you Baldos!

What's the difference between faking an injury and "truly" faking an injury ?

You will be missed


"Faking" an injury is when after you throw the ball, you complain that you pulled a muscle in your non bowling arm and you can't con, who would believe that.  "Truly faking" an injury is when you pretend to have hurt your bowling arm.
