Ten strikes, then a fucking 7 pin. Missed it, threw a 288. Games before and after it were both 206, for a 700 even. And I’m pissed off at that. Dammit. (2)

This was a Triumph
I Will Rock Your Face!
In honor of last night’s full lunar eclipse, I finally got myself one of these:
[Bah! Click through from RSS readers for the embedded video here.] Also, I took some pictures of the eclipse last night. Didn’t get anything terribly good. We are bored.

Last Play At Shea
During this year’s MLB All Star break, Billy Joel is playing the last concert at Shea Stadium before it gets knocked down after the season. Tickets went on (general public) sale 15 minutes ago. I got some. Section B8… row ONE! w00t! (Yes, I just said w00t. With zeros. Deal with it.)

Still Not Quite There
Monday night, I started a game with 9 strikes, then left an 8 count. Finished with a 278. Tonight, I put together 12 strikes in a row, but it was 8 at the end of one game (260) and 4 to start the next one (236). Hopefully soon I’ll get 12 in a row in the same game. Dammit.
It was a good week for bowling. Monday-Thursday, 851 (4 games), 707, 708, 696. That’s a 227.8 average over 13 games. I’ll take that. (0)

Competitive Balance
This is a few days old, but I can’t sleep and meant to post it before. Jayson Stark has an interesting article about competitive balance in baseball here. The focus is on the Santana trade and the money he got from Mets. The part of it I like the best:
So… yeah, that’s all I’ve got.

Oops
Brad sent me a link to this. It’ll probably be taken down soon enough, so a screenshot was in order. |
