Tidbits from the Gerald R. Fortier Bowling League
November 10, 2025
A few weeks ago, Jimmy (Lefty) Ruane helped to destroy the “Bad Boys.” He was 33 pins above his average. Now, Week 10: he bowls a 164 (handicap game of 236). There is “no quit” in this guy!!! Jimmy had done much for OMC – Bottle Redemption as his “cup of tea.” What a job he has done for OMC. Thank you and welcome back to being a regular substitute bowler.
Mike Curtis was “hot, hot, hot.” We 9, he had a handicap game of 249 and a handicap series of 693. These are both season highs – so far! Keep it up, Mike.
Is it true that the “Dudes” went 0 for 17 on the Red Pins? Pris money keeps going up. Thanks, guys for your efforts and “financial” contributions (25 cents for each missed Red Pin ). Maybe there will be a year-end “reward” for this 0 for 17 performance?
“Jar Heads” whipped the “Bad Boys.” Doug (the Bus Driver) Scott had a 615-handicap series – 25 pins over his average. Forest Casterline had a 606-handicap series – 22 pins over his average.
The match of the year is coming up in Week 11. The “Four Aces” and “The Pretenders” are both in first place. Both have a record of 60-20. Dave Cady vs. Will Helmlinger’s team.
We need more candy! Got any “left-overs” from Trick or Treat night? No tricks from me!
See you all Thursday!
