For the second season in a row, a second place team made a shocking comeback at the last possible moment to steal the championship from the expected winner. And, the common element in both comebacks is Aaron Barber. Is he a good luck charm that teams will fight to recruit in the off-season? Bidding starts at $100, make checks payable to Scoot. (more...)

With the last regular night of bowling in the history books, the remote possibility of the season ending in a three-way tie has faded away. Instead, next week Holy Sandbaggers, Batman! will attempt to protect their cherished first-place position from their only remaining challenger: NotContra. Meanwhile 8 bowlers will competing for two fistfuls of cash in the Tournament of Champions championship round. (more...) Read More →
With only one week remaining before the final position round, only three teams are mathematically still in the hunt for this season's championship. But a chant of "NOT NotContra" has been gaining momentum, that may or may not, have started on lanes 1 and 2 tonight. (more...) Read More →
There was some pretty freaking amazing rolling tonight. JoAnne Gordon rolled a new personal best series (405) and new high game (157). Michael Smith rolled a new personal best series (464) and tied his personal high game of 192. Ben Spencer broke his previous best game with a 199. Dennis Blake and Aubrey Moren were both on fire. Nick Kinney went insane with a 268. (more...) Read More →
Twelve weeks of bowling are now in the books... the season is 3/4 over, and while one team has maintained a two-game lead for three weeks in a row, the top 5 spots in the standings remain too close for us to start predicting a winner just yet. (more...) Read More →
With tonight being Halloween, almost half the league was bewitched by demons and unable escape from the dark presence of Satan long enough to roll. For those of us who surrounded ourselves with sufficient garlic, silver, and holy water to avoid all of the evil, here is how tonight's games went. (more...) Read More →
Our position round has brought us a first in the Fall 2017 Seasoon. For the first time this season, a team has moved into first place that has more than just a 1-game lead! (more...) Read More →
With the completion of tonight's games, every team has now faced every other team once. Next week will be the "midseason" position round, then we will start the schedule rotation over again for the final six weeks. And after the snafus of the last two weeks, the position round should put the computers back in synch so we won't have to cut up and re-arrange our score sheets anymore. (more...) Read More →
It's been a while since we've had to cut the scoresheets in half due to a printing error. But it's also been a while since we've had 10 teams and week 8 wasn't the position round. So how did everything shake out after tonight's massive cut-and-paste job? (more...) Read More →
While Mustache Cash Stash technically remains in first place by total pins, there are three teams tied for first place and a total of 5 teams that are within a game of first place. To have so many teams so close together at the top of the standings by week 6 is absolutely unprecedented in the history of our league. No, that's not hyperbole, I went through the week 6 standings of every past season and there has never been such a massive tie before by this point in the season. (more...) Read More →
The question has come up a few times as to what determines who plays in the interdivisional bracket of the Tournament of Champions each week. (more...) Read More →
Being lamewads, we here at Gutteralley can't claim to know what "Mustache Cash Stash" means or what the Google Image Search images that we found mean. But we do know enough to know that MCS = this week's first-place flavor-of-the-week. (more...) Read More →
After jumping the gun last week, the Alt-Left can now finally celebrate a legitimate claim to first place, due largely to a certain team member who has apparently found new ways to exercise his left hand. Meanwhile last week's 1st place team plummets all the way to 5th. The Tournament of Champions also started up with its new 40-bowler format. Read on to see how it all shook out! (more...) Read More →
The men of The Alt-Left left the bowling alley tonight so certain they had moved into first place that they even posed for this week's cover photo. But they apparently forgot we had expanded from 8 teams to 10 and didn't notice that a scoresheet at the far end was still being calculated. While the Alt-Left is still in a standings tie for first, total pins technically gives first place to Bowl Yer Ballz Off. What does this mean for the league? Well, it means that the two teams that feature... (more...)
Tonight our league received the worst news it has heard since the time the bar ran out of Sam Adams: PBR is being replaced with Boulevard Wheat at the bar because no one was drinking PBR. Tell that to the members of JG's Rusty Nuts, who average 5-6 pitchers of it a week. Their Tuesday nights are ruined. To find out how devastating this news was, read on... (more...) Read More →
The Fall 2017 season began with two teams' worth of bowlers absent, but that didn't stop some big games from causing some surprising upsets across the lanes. (more...) Read More →
Welcome to the Fall 2017 bowling season, our 36th session! This season we have 10 teams for the first time since Fall 2009, and that means a few big changes that will be noted below. (more...) Read More →
Due to surprisingly strong popular demand we expanded our line-up for this Fall from 8 teams to 10 for the first time since 2009. The extra spaces filled quickly, and we now have a full roster of 10 teams, and a standby list waiting for any last minute drops. (more...) Read More →
35 seasons of bowling are now behind us, and while this season may not have set a lot of records, it still has a few firsts and a lot of fun moments. And the surprise come-from-behind championship win by Omaha Hambone marks the first title win in quite some time that didn't come from ne of the long-time dynasties. (more...) Read More →
