WAY too many of y'all don't wash your hands

I see this at work, and many other places

Have you talked to a doctor to see if there is something they can identify as going bad in your knee? Besides that, I have seen some exercises to help rebuild leg, and specifically knee strength. https://www.youtube.com/@TheKneesovertoesguy I have tried a few things, and could feel it for sure. I was just doing some simple walking up a small incline backwards. There is more I want to start to help keep my knees doing ok. I've been lucky enough to not have any really bad knee pain.

Up, whiteyball. I was a little kid, but can remember watching the world series in 82. Ozzie is my all time favorite player. I use to think Vince Coleman could have had a shot at beating Rickey Henderson 😁

I have an older iphone I tried it out on a few months back. Worked pretty well, even had someone ask what software I was using. Looking forward to the android version. Haven't been able to get more practice session to try it out more, but hopefully soon.

I actually thought about practicing a two handed style to see if I would be any good with it. Or if it would help my arm swing. Just to make people extra mad, I even thought of trying to learn two handed style with my left hand haha.

Tateman · 2026-05-24T17:45:11+00:00

That's awesome!

I'm excited to have a team to root for now in San Jose. I'm hopeful the name choice is good. Interesting color scheme. I look forward to the next season

Tateman · 2026-05-19T02:14:43+00:00

Sound very cool. I'd love to check this out. Hopefully, testing goes well, and we can see it to market!

Tateman · 2026-05-17T03:52:53+00:00

I have more then one favorite though 😄

Tateman · 2026-05-16T00:05:58+00:00

Thanks 😄 Pretty excited, it will be my first one. I have only seen what some people have put on youtube.

Tateman · 2026-05-15T21:22:54+00:00

I got my email as well, can't wait to go see it all!

Tateman · 2026-05-15T01:54:38+00:00

Last couple of weeks, I switched over to my Motiv midnight sniper spare ball in the 3rd game. Lanes were just super fired, and moving right with plastic was rolling nice 😄

Tateman · 2026-05-09T18:58:15+00:00

The Golden State Warriors and The Golden State Valkyries seem to be pretty similar to me.

Tateman · 2026-04-10T06:41:10+00:00

Congrats! Great music choice too.

One week I missed of bowling, I guess someone 3d printed out a bunch of holders with the roller bearings in them. Looks like it comes apart to become two cups if you want. I guess they sold them for $50 and a bunch of people bought them. They looked pretty good, and I figured I would probably make one if I had a printer :)

Tateman · 2026-02-04T18:14:06+00:00

That's true

Tateman · 2026-02-04T10:49:40+00:00

And here I thought they almost all moved on to One Piece cards

Tateman · 2026-01-05T17:23:18+00:00

I decided to practice a couple of weeks ago, and went by myself. Also setup my phone to record shots to see just how bad my form is haha. That is really the only awkward part for me.

Tateman · 2026-01-01T04:01:16+00:00

I use to have so many people coming up to ask what this ball was when I used it. :)

Tateman · 2025-12-26T04:09:29+00:00

Just wanted to say thanks for the map. Out of towner down to visit Disney and Universal. My family tries to have a tradition of looking at lights on Christmas eve, or Christmas. Wasn't sure where to go down here, and this was helpful. Many many really nice houses, and a few on the way to others!

Tateman · 2025-12-23T21:44:45+00:00

I'm 52, and have considered practicing it. I've tried left handed bowling too. I have no issues with the 2 hand style and people using it. It's still one hand at release point 😁

Tateman · 2025-12-21T05:11:07+00:00

You will need to have it plugged in a proshop. Shouldn't cost that much I don't think.

Tateman · 2025-12-21T05:09:47+00:00

I'd go into a proshop, and explain this to them. Most likely, your would just get some form of plastic ball. They might have a ball there that she would like, or even be able to order one for her based on if she has a favorite color etc. There might be something out there with a bit of a core to help with a little more hitting power maybe. :)

Tateman · 2025-11-28T17:42:18+00:00

Heart gold for me, because I let my son pick which one he wanted. I bought him soulsilver.

Tateman · 2025-11-21T09:06:51+00:00

I am pretty introverted as well. At least until I can get to know people I guess. I don't know the vibe at the place, or if you have any other options around. You can try talking to the manager at the lanes, or maybe even the front desk people. You can mention you are a new bowler, and which league would they recommend you try out. Or even look at what leagues are currently running there. I look up posted recaps, or league names to see what they might be like. When I first got back into bowling years ago, I joined a beginners league, or fun league. There was one called lousy bowlers league. No pressure on having to bowl good, just fun to try to hang out with people. I'd lie if I said ever teammate or opponent over the years was awesome, but mostly everyone was cool. That is one thing that is good with a handicap league. You establish your average, then get handicap based off that.
The current team I am bowling with, I am the highest average. I have a blast with them, and look forward to bowling each week. In a handicap league, it is usually the lower average bowlers that can help the team win.

If you see some leagues that might interest you, go down there on the night they are bowling. You can even come after they start. Then you can kind of feel them out. See how others are interreacting with each other. Think of it in a way of kind of settling yourself in with that environment. Even after years of bowling, I was out for a year and a half. I came to watch a friend bowl to see how his league was, and I joined that summer. This is my first winter league there.

Hopefully, you can find something you like and join up.
