The you’re okay NMW Dr. Dean Hinitz says it’s difficult to raise your arm if you think you’re going to get punched in the ribs. That’s exactly what judging will do to you. If you think there is some kind of punishment or price to pay for a shot, you won’t make that shot very well. I don’t mean punishment like jail or the IRS; I mean things like being embarrassed or shown to be wrong (or even human). It happens to all of us. I remember not too long ago playing on some lanes that changed more quickly than anything I had ever experienced. I left the 4/9 on the right lane. Because I knew they changed quickly and, in this house, if one changed, so did the other, I moved three left on the left lane. I left the 4/9. I moved 5 and 3 more on the right lane (now 8/3 different than the first 4/9) and guess what? I left the 4/9. My first thought was that all those people were going to think I didn’t know to move. What a shock. (Leaving back-to-back 4/9s, although not pleasant, wasn’t as much of a shock as my thought.) I surely thought I was past all that stuff. I knew I was moving. They weren’t keeping me warm at night or paying the bills, so what did it matter what they thought? Oh my. Still have World Famous MID CITY LANES ROCK ’N’ BOWL some lessons to learn in this incarnation, I guess. Anyway, it was an eye-opener to find that thought in my head. Of course, the issue with any thought is what you do with it. I’m not responsible for what comes into my head but I am very responsible if I choose to keep it. I’m still working on that part. I survived three 4/9s in a row. Regardless if all those people in scratch league think I can’t move or didn’t move, I’m still an okay person. Important things like the sun coming up and how happy Semi-Precious is to see me when I get home are the same. Those 4/9s were an inconvenience, not a tragedy. Too bad I didn’t have all this wisdom when I shot 129 in Nationals… I used to think I was unworthy. I mean, who would want to bowl with someone who shot 129 at Nationals??? It’s a constant lesson to learn to remember that was my bowling score, not my life score. I am not my number. Okayness is a way of life, a way of thinking of things that observes what happens, not judges outcome. It’s the same way you treat your doubles partner. You would never talk to your doubles partner the way you talk to yourself. You know that if you tell someone they are crummy or worthless or a terrible 10 pin shooter long enough, they New Orleans REMEMBER!

STEELERS LINEBACKER Continued from Page 1 town of Saginaw and now I go with my teammates and friends in Pittsburgh. I was introduced to the PBA when I played in Chris Paul's charity event and got a firsthand look at how incredibly talented these athletes are, and I couldn't be more excited to be a celebrity owner in the first ever PBA League." Woodley will be owner of the Pittsburgh Jack Rabbits which is made up of franchise player Osku Palermaa, Martin Larsen, former Saginaw Valley State All-American Dan MacLelland, Thomas Larsen, Patrick Allen and supplemental pick Anthony LaCaze. Woodley was a member of the 2008 Steelers’ Super Bowl championship team and was also an All-American and Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year at the University of Michigan before being drafted by the Steelers in 2007. "LaMarr is a proven winner and we are glad to have him on our side,” said PBA Commissioner Tom Clark. “There are some natural rivalries within the PBA League forming fast, including LaMarr's Pittsburgh team and Jerome Bettis' Motown squad. Plus, who in their right mind will dare make the ridiculous statement 'bowling isn't a sport' to Mr. Woodley?" Woodley is also active in many charitable initiatives. The LaMarr Woodley Foundation – www.lamarrwoodleyfoundation.com – is a non-profit organization designed to give underprivileged and underserved youth and adults an opportunity to overcome unfortunate situations and their environment. The eight teams that will make up the PBA League were determined through a draft that was conducted during the GEICO PBA World Series of Bowling in November.
