The fourteenth week of Fall 2008 saw two teams climb in the standings, while two teams slipped. Jennifer Seefeldt landed this week's high game for the women with a 188, and women's high series was bagged by Freda Schroeder with a 484. As for the men, Duncan Ferber earned this week's high game (258) and series (598). Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Chico's Bail Bonds took turns kicking the ball return with Livin' On A Spare. With top billing by Ken M. Wilson with his 563 series, Chico's celebrated a clean sweep over Livin' On A Spare. As for the opposition, Tom Finley guided Livin' On A Spare with his below-average 364 despite his team getting swept. Chico's Bail Bonds remains in 1st place, while Livin' On A Spare remains in 9th.
On lanes 21 & 22: Ain't No Sh!t deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of Bowl Movement. Blessed by Duncan Ferber with his above-average 598 series, Ain't No Sh!t split the series with Bowl Movement. Meanwhile, Carter Collins took the lead in Bowl Movement with his above-average 453 as they matched their opponent in wins. Ain't No Sh!t remains in 2nd place, while Bowl Movement sinks 1 spot to 6th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Bad Newz Kennels kept grabbing the balls of Dave and the Wingers. Topped by Dennis Laube, Freda Schroeder with their 484 series, the Kennels collected 3 wins against the Wingers. On the adjacent lane, #1 Head-to-Head Rob Kaszuba mastered the Wingers with his above-average 506 despite his team notching only a single win. Bad Newz Kennels remains in 7th place, while the Wingers remain in 8th.
On lanes 25 & 26: Is This Billable? chucked gutter balls with Spare The Rod, Split The Kitty. Even though highlighted by the skills of Ryan Doll with his below-average 492 series, Is This Billable? accomplished only 1 win against Spare The Rod. In the meantime, Andrea Caudillo reigned supreme in Spare The Rod with her above-average 435 as her team took the series with 3 wins. Is This Billable? plummets 2 spots in the standings to 5th place, while Spare The Rod jumps 2 spots to 4th.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Dios Mios couldn't stop undressing with their eyes the members of WWJB. Featuring Bill Krejci with his 527 series, with kudos to #1 Power-Ranked and Most Valuable Bowler Lefty John Boren as well as #1 Head-to-Head , Dios Mios celebrated a clean sweep over WWJB. While that was going down, AJ Taylor laid down the law in WWJB with his below-average 300 despite his team getting swept. Dios Mios leap 1 spot in the standings to 3rd place, while WWJB remains in 10th.
Bowlers who lied to their significant other claiming bowling was running long then went out for after-bowling drinks at The 200 Club include: Bill Krejci (209), Duncan Ferber (258), Ken M. Wilson (200,203), and Ryan Doll (212)
In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Carl Goetz routed Division 1, while Chris Lewis had his way with Division 2. John Keck staked a claim for the Iron Throne in Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about Division 4 as it was a complete embarassment. Finally, Janelle (Laube) Lamar (Division 4) dominated this week's Interdivisional bracket. In terms of overall points: Carl Goetz calls the shots for Division 1; Aubrey Moren reigns over Division 2; Carter Collins governs Division 3; and Lindsay Jamis is in the driver's seat in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 2nd-place Ain't No Sh!t will hang out with 3rd-place Dios Mios (hcp 145). Ain't No Sh!t is expected to perform weakly as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Dios Mios are forecast to drop their average a bit even as they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 8th-place Dave and the Wingers will spend some quality time with 9th-place Livin' On A Spare (hcp 16). The Wingers might perform well and win the series; while Livin' On A Spare ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 5th-place Is This Billable? will roll against 6th-place Bowl Movement (hcp 48). Is This Billable? will likely have a bit of an off night and get swept; while Bowl Movement will probably raise their average while they rack up a sweep.
- Next up, on lanes 25&26, 1st-place Chico's Bail Bonds will face 10th-place WWJB (hcp 146). Chico's might perform well and sweep the series; while WWJB ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Bad Newz Kennels will meet with 4th-place Spare The Rod, Split The Kitty (hcp 64). The Kennels are predicted to roll a little low, but split the series with Spare The Rod; while Spare The Rod is anticipated to hold steady as they keep the series tied.
