Tournament Winner

What makes it the best is that they are married!! 

So we will be sending them the trophies this week and once they get them and send us photos I will post. 

I hope you all had as much fun as we did! I think we will take a few weeks off and try again. I have learned a few things to make it go more smoothly and so it will be more fun. If you are interested in bowling again let us know. We will check with everyone in a few weeks! 

Sue!! 

Your SpareMii tourney has some bracket bustin this week! Look out for Beth who beat out league winner Joe!! Unbelievable!! Our final four is way exciting!!

And in an upset that may have marital repercussions, Carter beat out Adrienne to advance!
Here are this week's match ups. We should try to bowl this week by Wednesday to the Final Game!!

Thanks so much for all who are still making this fun!!

Another Week, Another Round of Goodbyes

This week saw some hard-fought battles.  Sadly, we must say goodbye to more of our bowling friends.  Jessica bowled a strong 232, but still lost to Beth.  Goodbye, Jessica.  We will miss your enthusiastic participation!  Allisone and Ashley are both leaving us this week, but both have bowled well and have played along with our reindeer games, which we appreciate.  Billie lost to Carter, but she put forth a valiant effort - and let's not forget that she has a baby under the age of 1 to take care of!  Bob suffered a loss at the hands of Charlotte, but considering how much he loves her, he might have taken a dive.  The Ettinger clan is no longer represented as we lose both J.D. and Russ this week.  Thanks for playing, guys!  You represented Michigan well.  And I, your fearless leader, have exited the tournament as well.  Darn Adrienne and her 257!

This coming week features some serious battles.  Beth is taking on the formidable Joe.  Could this be the upset of the tourney?  Adrienne and Carter will bowl to see who rules their household on the Wii lanes.  Can their relationship survive this epic battle?  (The answer is "yes," but I was trying to be dramatic)  Inconsistent Charlotte will take on fairly consistent Andrew.  It will all come down to which Charlotte shows up!  Our final match up will be David versus Kate.  Kate has been a strong competitor, but David has the skills to get the job done.

Tune in next week to see who is victorious... and who is finished in this tournament.

If you're still bowling, please get your scores to me by Wednesday p.m.  THANKS!

Updated Bracket

na na na na hey hey good bye

This week we say goodbye to some worthy adversaries!
First we must bid adieu to Tonia, Rachel and Abby of the Michigan Ettinger clan. Abby almost beat Bob, but alas their time has come. J.D. and Russ are still representing!

Then we say goodbye to Alice, Jana and Greta. Spring schedules have been rough on the league.

Sibyl put up her best score to date but it wasn't enough to best Allisone who moves forward.

Goodbye dear friends. Know that we will adjust the league and start again this summer!!

Now for this week's match ups. Beth takes on Jessica from AZ. A tough match, both have done well so it is anyone's game.

Top seeded Joe takes on Ashley (Allisone's daughter and owner of the moustache collection) which should be fun. Can she pull out a victory over Joe who has only won the weekly bowling once? Watch this one folks!!

Next up is Adrienne against our own league commissioner Sue. This will be no problem for Adrienne EXCEPT Sue never gives up. Her grit and determination make this match up interesting.

Billie takes on Carter. Billie is fresh off her confidence building 202 game last week. Can she keep the momentum going or will number 4 seeded Carter show her who's the boss?

Andrew from AZ takes on Allisone. Both like to have fun and both are good bowlers. My money is on whoever is having more fun this week to come away the winner.

Bob vs. Charlotte! A battle royale!! What more is there to say.

Russ takes on David (Allisone's husband) David is a very consistent bowler but Russ may have something to say about that!

And mighty J.D. takes on number 2 seeded Kate. JD is our youngest bowler still in contention and he has a tough draw over number 2 seeded Kate. Guess he will have to be calm cool and collected and bowl like mad to be this year's Cinderella story.

SO there you have it. BOWL people!! Please send me your score by Wed night please!! Have fun!!

last week in regulation play

Charlotte won the last week (remember she won the first week too!) and won a $10 gift card to Subway! YAHOO! Below is the bracket. The top 9 seeds have a week off with an automatic bye into the tourney. Some interesting match ups.... and interestingly all the match ups are of people who probably don't know each other! I will do some head to head intros on the blog this week!

Same rules apply- bowl 3 games send in your best score! If you send a pic of yourself in a fun costume all the better!

Happy bowling and sorry I was so late getting this up!

Week 5- Blindfolded!

OK, lots to share with you!
First off this next week is the last week in the regular season. Then we go to a single elimination bracketed tournament. Just like March Madness but in February! I will email you the bracket after next week's scores. Then you bowl and send me your score each week beating your competitor to a pulp until one person rises to the top, victorious! We have a trophy, and it is quite special.

Next, much news. Jen and Skip had to withdraw due to some health issues with Skip. Sounds like things are not going well so please keep good thoughts for them. I am sorry they were never bowler of the week, but maybe next season.

ALSO< this week some people had great games....

like Billie- best score ever for her!!!
AND for my most positive bowler friend Greta from Cincinnati!! Who bowled 4 strikes in a row!! YEAH!!

This weeks scores are up! Congrats to Kate who is leading the pack! 

Lastly, I wanted to thank those who tried bowling blindfolded.....

Including Russ who bowled a 177 with his hoodie on backwards!

And Ashley....

Who will be getting this in the mail this week

For winning moustache week. Sorry I am late!

Lastly, I wanted to let Allisone know that I took a point away from her score. She got the lowest score this week because she didn't bowl. WHY didn't she bowl? Well she is in Bermuda. She gets -1 point. The commissioner is a meanie when others are in the sun and I am still looking at piles of snow.
