Our bowling league was called off early this year because of the virus crisis. It would have ended this month. I had written this post before the cancellation. I found it interesting to find a photographer using our Thursday Night Men’s League at Bowling Green as her focus. Roland behind the desk told us on…

Feeling a little smaller about the weekly bowling league

I’ve read the stories about the incredibly shrinking interest in bowling around my part of the world. Family-owned bowling centers have been closing. The number of bowlers registered to the national organization that tracks us is steadily shrinking. The sky is falling on a sport that I’ve held close to my heart since the days…

I rolled along with the Limp Lizard squad this season

Don’t think that I skipped bowling this season. I just haven’t shared about the exploits of our Limp Lizard squad in the Thursday Night Men’s League at Bowling Green in North Syracuse, N.Y. You see, I got off to such a bad start way back in September … Putrid, really. As in, after the first…

This time around, Steve threw a 246-221-247-714, following Tiny’s fantastic 742 of the prior week. And the three-game total…

A huge night for Tiny

Something special happened for the Limp Lizard squad during Thursday Night Men’s League action at Bowling Green last week. And it wasn’t the fact that we won all three games for the first time to up our second-half record to 9-12. My teammate Tiny had a week that was. If you can’t quite make out…
