    League Night: Week 1 and Other Bits

    Tuesday, February 5, 2008, 09:04 PM CST [General]

    Jumping off: Man, Bill, where were all those hidden spy cameras when you needed 'em?

    First week of the Bradley Intramural Bowling League.  Pretty sure the league isn't sanctioned again this year, which is a shame because if every night is close to this one, I'm going to get an 800 series.  Bowled fairly well tonight; started off with a 253(that 8th frame always does me in!) and a 593 series.  Much like my last time out, I missed the 200 average by a couple of pins, but hey, I'll get a handicap for at least the first two weeks.  Looking to do away with that though.

    Nick "The Big Nasty" Thommen's on the team, along with a kid in his fraternity.  We've got a decent team, so barring my usual semester injury, we'll be sitting at the top of the league by the end of spring semester.

    Tournament in La Porte this weekend.  I kinda want to go, especially since I heard that Coach is devising a tricky sport shot(Confirmation on that, Hurman?), and since most of our Rolling Rock Superstars will be out there.  Hmm, that's not a bad name for all of us.  Wonder how much shirts would cost...

    Either way, it's a tough call: this would be the third straight weekend I left campus, and there's a friend coming over from U of I that I've been talking to.  Plus, it's hard to miss campus weekends; you never know what craziness is going on.  On the other hand, this would be some decent practice for JG in July, and I would only have to pay 40 bucks this time around.  Plus, I feel like I could beat some of those Hoosier State ringers.  Shoot, if Alberto can make match play....haha, gotcha, kid!

    I looked up the core for the Inferno online and I realized that I should be using that ball earlier than after the lanes have broken down.  This'll be fun, figuring out which ball is the leadoff, especially since I'm getting a new thumb hole in the Big Bang.  Finally, I'll get to use that ball like I've wanted to.

    Well, that's all for this one.  Wanted to talk about Bill Belichick losing the game for the Pats(who goes for the end zone in the third quarter?  Three points there would have tied the score, Mr. Genius.)  I won't lie, I was ecstatic that they lost.  And Eli Manning finally grew up.  Lesson to all you hotheaded young talents out there: experience will get you to the top.

    As always, keep rolling the rock.
