The second week of Fall 2006 saw five teams climb in the standings, while four teams slipped. One bowler roll a new personal best game. Andrea DeLong landed this week's high game for the women with a 187, and women's high series was bagged by Deena Slinkard with a 451.

Manute Bowl plummets 2 spots in the standings to 9th place, while Hez-Bowl-lah jumps 2 spots to 4th.

On lanes 17 & 18: New Balls, Old Rack alternated between bowling and dry humping TBD. Featuring Most Valuable Bowler Ken M.

New Balls, Old Rack leaps 3 spots in the standings to 1st place, while TBD remains in 10th.

On lanes 19 & 20: Guttersluts had a delightful time with I Can't Believe It's Not Gutter. Despite the strength of Andrea DeLong with her stunning 380 series, the Guttersluts accomplished only 1 win against Not Gutter.

On the adjacent lane, James Long commanded Split Happens with his above-average 428 as they swept the competition. Frickin' Ten Pins plummet 5 spots in the standings to 6th place, while Split Happens jump 3 spots to 2nd.

Finally, down on lanes 23 & 24: Bowlkake2 alternated splits with All Belts Are Off. In spite of top-billing by Thomas Lin with his 553 series, Bowlkake2 accomplished only 1 win against the Belt. Simultaneously, Pat Searcy shined in the Belt with his fantastic 610 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Bowlkake2 plummets 2 spots in the standings to 5th place, while the Belt sinks 1 spot to 3rd.
