This week saw huge shifts in the standings, and Jeremy Varnell and Chris Windham swept the weekly awards! Just one week left to determine Tournament of Champions divisions and three people have yet to set an average so hopefully all of those three make it next week!
Standings Shakeup Surges Squids
The second week of Fall 2026 arrived with three teams climbing the standings, three teams slipping backward, and enough drama on the lanes to make a bowling alley feel like the center of the sporting universe. I am Alotta Tenpin, reporting from the sidelines, where I have my notebook, my highly ques...

Summer is over already! Jon Little picked up 2 of the 3 weekly awards (nobody got MVB as is typical the first week), Mike Fitzgerald rolled a new personal league best game, Jeremy is in the doghouse, and defending champs Squids debut in... third?

In a come-from-behind shocker, Squid Row waited until the very end to use their tentacles to sn**ch the championship out of what had been some very Hot-n-Ready® hands! Mike Fitzgerald won the Tournament of Champions with Jon Little claiming second place! Dennis Walling was this week's MVB and #1 Head-to-Head Bowler, while Nathan Burrows took #1 Power Rank.
Next week we meet for the final time this season, where a pizza buffet will precede the awarding of prizes. Following that, optional just-for-fun 9 Pin No Tap bowling.

Inky Upset! Surging Squids Sn**ch Supremacy in Shutout Stunner
The Spring 2026 season has reached its grand, glitter-soaked finale, and somewhere out there a confetti cannon is probably still firing directly into somebody's basket of chicken wings! All three pairs of lanes featured very closely matched teams, with two of the three matches having no handicap wha...

Nathan Burrows won Most Valuable Bowler and Chris Hagan got #1 Power and #1 H2H as one split series and two well-timed sweeps changed the standings for the first time since March 24 and set the stage for three epic battles in next week's championship!
It Just Got Interesting!
The fifteenth week of Spring 2026 delivered another loud, chaotic night at Gutter Alley as the standings tightened and several bowlers turned in performances that could shake up the rest of the season. One team climbed in the rankings while another took a painful tumble. Lindsay Sargent captured the...

It's a Cinco de Mayo miracle! In a stunning turn of events, with just a few hours to go before Seth would yell "Practice is ending!", the malware attack on the league's server was thwarted and a clean restore was made from backup!
So now on with business...
Last night saw JoAnne Barber claim Most Valuable Bowler and Mike Fitzgerald earn #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head-to-Head! Meanwhile for reasons that were hard to pick up on, many of us felt a subconscious urge to celebrate Cinco with Michelob Ultra rather than Modelo, though nobody could quite put a finger on why...

A stagnant Week 14 of the Spring 2026 season somehow still managed to feel like a pressure cooker wrapped inside a soap opera and served ice-cold beside a sweating bucket of Michelob Ultra. Speaking of pressure, allow me to introduce myself: I'm Chip Dugan, regional Michelob sales representative, fi...
