The 22nd season of the VML Bowling League officially begins tonight. With only seven teams signed up, this is the smallest crew we've had since the Fall 2002 season. The Finals are a full four months away. Which two teams will end up facing one another in the championship matchup? Rest assured, returning champions Ian Goetz, Carl Goetz and Ken M. Wilson will do their best to defend their crown and return to the Finals but with several brand new teams in the mix, it's anyone's guess as to who will emerge victorious. So, without further adieu, let's get this party started!Bowlers making their debut this season include Aaron Chandler, Ben Coffman, Brian Cunningham, Chris Able, Chris Massey, Jake Parrott, Rick Heckadon, Sarah Manning and Teresa Deterding. Welcome to the league, new blood! If you have any questions at all please drop Ken or Scoot a line.Now we know that there are several of you that will not be able to make it the first night. This is okay. It's better to miss now than later on in the season when your team will need you. In the event that you cannot make it on a particular night, just alert your team captain or leave a note for Ken and/or Scoot. This way we can make sure that everything is taken care of on the administrative end.We hope that everyone has a fun time this season and good luck to everyone.

And They’re Off…!

I predict that before the night is over…one of the Goetz boys will win one of the three card games.
I predict that with so few bowlers the biggest pot we’ll see is $5.
Did anyone even play cards?
Yes… 5 people did, though not all at once. I think the biggest pot at any one time was $4. Melissa even helped with the setup. We were all wondering why your team and Freda’s team ignored the deck.
Well, Freda’s team was bowling the blinds and probably didn’t want to wait around for everyone else for Games #2 and #3.
I don’t think anyone on my team wanted to play considering that we were bowling about as well as Carpio looks.
