I am going to join a bowling league

WONKEMTEL
I recieved a call from my Aunt Shari today and she asked if I wanted to join a league with her on Friday nights. I told her yes. I usually go the the Barrington Broncos football games on Friday nights until November, so when she asked and I said yes so fast I don't know what I was thinking. It must be that bowling semi- competively is still in me. I still have fun bowling when I do it in open bowling and still get very competive with myself and those craze pins. I did go bowling with a friend of my Kevin last Monday and bowled a 177 average in 5 games (the scores were 193, 203, 129,197,178), which is about my average when I quit bowling in a league. I hope I made the correct choice and to miss the football games that I enjoy going to. Sometimes I lose track on what I am watching at the games and do not understand what is happening on the field and why penalties are called when I look like a great play and they take the long play away and start ten yars ferther back.
I guess that is why I would like to get back into bowling a sport I somewhat understand. Even though I get frusterated on why I can't pick up a ten pin or why I get a split even though it looked like a good shot in the pocket ( betwen the head pin and the 2 pin).
Well enough babbling I made my discussion and I am going to have to stick with it.

Good choice! I'd much rather be bowling than watching footbal!

Is this a scratch league? With a 177 average, I guess there's not much room for a handicap.

I agree! Great choice! Of course you know that if I was there your average would be ten pins higher because no matter how well I bowl you always have to bowl better!
