Default Re: What are you the best at?

Played the last three years and had to take this (my last) semester off due to injury.

Did you play for Navy?

Right now the PSU team is ranked 7th in the country and we just lost to BYU in the Sweet Sixteens. We did beat navy in the MARFU championship for the first time in years though, and now we've got a big trophy in our apartment [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. I played inside center for my first two years but switched for backrow after I got a little bigger (225 now), and it made the game 10 times better IMO.

Hopefully I can recover and begin playing for a men's league in the fall. Either that or go back to throwing the hammer...either one works for me.

BTW Navy made Final Fours, but they get the joy of playing Cal.

No doubt that you could beat me two fingered. That's some hard stuff to master. Heck you may be able to beat me the majority of the time on the league condition using 2 fingers. That condition is just so conducive to that type of roll that if you have some consistency you can score huge.

You've probably got an edge on me scratch right now because I'm not practicing as much. The leagues I bowl in are falling apart and I'm starting not to care. I think top of my game we're basically a push, and even now we're close enough that in a short match (say best of five) it would be who gets hot. I'm pretty good in the clutch as I've been bowling anchor the last two years.

As for what Duke said about my style, I play a much more direct line than any two-finger bowler you've seen, so I don't think PBA conditions would hurt me as much as most guys my style. Right now my most common line has been with my left foot finishing at ~30, ball landing around the 15, out to the 8 and breaking around 45 feet. I can play even straighter than that if necessary and I throw very hard.

However I'm still not as accurate as I should be on strike shots so I'd say most orthodox guys gain an edge against me on tough, flooded conditions.

this is exactly the thing that was talked about in the thread the other day, about thinking you are good at something and in truth you are but a joke.

I suspect everyone who said sm3, couldnt touch whats on this video

last time we played halo 1, i pwned like 30-15 while you went 20-20 in almost every game we played. the only thing you beat me at was 1v1 wizard when we were screwing around trying to adjust to pistol. In halo2 you have never done consistently better than me. Arguement over until more results play out.
