We are now halfway through the Spring 2008 season, so time is running out for those teams who want a shot at the championship to position themselves. The eighth week saw three teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. One bowler set a new personal best series, and one rolled new personal high game. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (224) and series (535) for the women, while John Coleman earned this week's high game (217) and series (599) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: You Don't Know Sh!t tussled with Dr. Strangelanes, Or How I Learned To Stop Opening And Earn The Belt. Notwithstanding the leadership of Cory Chorpenning with his below-average 539 series, Don't Know Sh!t accomplished only 1 win against Dr. Strangelanes. In the midst of this, Shaun Crockett called the shots for Dr. Strangelanes with his above-average 473 as his team took the series with 3 wins. You Don't Know Sh!t remains in 3rd place, while Dr. Strangelanes remain in 5th.
On lanes 21 & 22: Bad Newz Kennels spent a romantic evening with Ebowla. With top billing by Freda Schroeder with her above-average 535 series, the Kennels collected 3 wins against Ebowla. On the adjacent lane, Chris Lewis showed off in Ebowla with his 426 despite his team notching only a single win. Bad Newz Kennels leap 1 spot in the standings to 1st place, while Ebowla plunges 2 spots to 8th.
On lanes 23 & 24: 3 Dudes and a Doll hung out with ?. Regardless of the star power of Chris Rigdon with his below-average 469 series, 3 Dudes and a Doll got swept by ?. Across the ball return, trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) John Coleman laid down the law in ? with his terrific 599 as they swept the competition. 3 Dudes and a Doll drops 1 spot in the standings to 2nd place, while ? moves 1 spot to 7th.
On lanes 25 & 26: Sofa King Good traded lane malfunctions with Dios Mios. Though featuring Don Glasscock with his (either injured, sick, or sandbagging) 550 series, Sofa King got swept by Dios Mios.

Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Split Happens had a delightful time with It's Britney, Bitch. Topped by James Long with his 512 series, Split Happens collected 3 wins against Britney. While that was going down, Jeff Unseld drew the spotlight in Britney with his above-average 405 despite his team notching only a single win. Split Happens remains in 10th place, while Britney remains in 9th.
Bowlers who lied to their significant other claiming bowling was running long then went out for after-bowling drinks at The 200 Club include: Angela Bradford (204), Bill Krejci (210), Cory Chorpenning (213), Don Glasscock (208), Freda Schroeder (224), John Coleman (217), and Seth Gunderson (202)
A new personal high game was set tonight by Freda Schroeder (224, previous best 222). In addition, a new personal best series was rolled by Shaun Crockett (473, previous best 461). Adding to the excitement, the 224 rolled by Freda Schroeder is this season's new high game among women.
The 224 rolled by Freda Schroeder is the new 8th-best women's game in league history!
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Bill Krejci conquered Division 1, while John Coleman triumphed over his enemies in Division 2. Kris Hiestand ruled Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4 (though John Keck came closest). And, finally, nobody claimed victory in the Interdivisional bracket, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about this bracket as it was a complete embarassment. In terms of overall points: Don Glasscock runs the show in Division 1; Dennis Laube tops Division 2; John Richardson holds the reins in Division 3; and Aubrey Moren reigns over Division 4.
