Welcome

After a five year hiatus I will be returning to bowling leagues, and not just for the Summer, but for good! After a stupid college accident (me thinking I could fly?) I injured myself at the end of the collegiate season before Nationals. After many months of physical therapy my ankle wouldn’t let me return to bowl again in college. After almost two years I did return to bowl a Winter league in Grass Valley at Prospector Lanes, I averaged maybe 170 (league high average, horrible house). To my frustration and lack of communication with people whom I had grown to love in Sacramento in previous years I let my love for bowling diminish. I haven’t touched a ball since except for maybe 2-3 drunken nights with friends, which is hardly what I was committed to in a previous life. I told myself I didn’t miss it, I didn’t need it, I only love in when I’m in an establishment, but none of those things are true. I used to be good, really good some would have said, and I feared that I would just be some other casual league bowling nobody if I were to ever return. Well all of those thoughts are gone and I’m ready to be back — truth-be-told I REALLY miss bowling and thanks to a good friend Russell Roach, I am coming back! Russell and I attended a baby shower at Country Club lanes last month and he asked me to bowl a Summer league with him on Monday nights at Crestview. So, tonight is my first night back, and it might be a horrible display of a washed up ex-bowler, and it isn’t always going to be that way… I will practice and become what I once was. Watch out you Winter Scratch league wannabes, Russ is comin’ for ya!
