300  Game Jink

When a bowler starts a games with a string of strikes there is always the possibility that he/her will roll twele in a row and score a 300 game. The belief is that no one should mention such a possibility because if anyone does the string is such to be broken.

U.B.A. family let's give a shout out to one of our own making moves representing the U.B.A. "Let You Tell It" aka Big Dawg of Strictly Bizness shot his first 300 on 1/24/11 at Jib Lanes in Queens, NY. Big Dawg has bowled in many houses over the years but reached this mark while representing his U.B.A. teammates during league play. Big Dawg also bowls with a squad of all U.B.A. members LiL Man (Classic) B Easy (Classic) LiL B "The Model" (Strictly) who are currently doing big things in league play. This is what we like to hear from the members of the U.B.A. Great Job Big Dawg.

On another note "Let You Tell It" wears other hats and always has his U.B.A. family in mind. Big Dawg is actually author and publisher K. L. Belvin who owns and operates Bravin Publishing www.BravinPublishing.com with his wife Tiffany Braxton Belvin of the U.B.A aka "Lil B The Model". Together they have published five books with over nine on deck to be released in 2011. K. L. is offering all U.B.A. members a chance to buy his new book "From Gigolo to Jesus" at a discounted price of 12.00. A 20% discount for U.B.A members. You can also get a discount on any of the books Bravin Publishing has on their website. www.BravinPublishing.com

As you see being a part of the U.B.A has its advantages on and off the lanes. Let's keep making it happen and support the U. B. A. Brand and our entire U.B.A. bowling community.

HOW I JOINED AN ELITE GROUP OF BOWLERS

By now you either heard about it or seen it on your facebook page, googled it on You Tube or still have it on your damn phone if you was at Jib this past Monday. Yep it happened Silk getting BIG PAWED BY THE BIG DAWG from Strictly Business. Yes Silk Nixon has joined a steady fast GROWING group of the 5 PIN SMACK. All UBA bowlers are trying their best to turn down their membership but as you can see from various videos, emails and personally seeing it yourself the 5 PIN SMACK can make you a member.

I have no choice but to take this smack with honor knowing i'm not by myself and I will have more company

PS Next time smack me with our UBA 5 PIN SMACK POWDER HMMMMMM

Just tryin to make a name 4 myself.

Good day U.B.A. friends and family. I haven't been on the blog for a minute but after last night I just wanted to say a lil somethin'. So I was called out by Purple of Silent Killerz even though I had already gotten a few dollars from him this past Sunday off one game. After making the 12.6 mile journey to Woodmere Lanes where I have never bowled I arrived to find my challenger no where to be found. In lieu of this development a couple of other Silent Killerz decided to try and jump on the Ninja. So for the next 2 hours I had to hand out a few lessons in bowling. Of course we know private lessons are not free. But wait...who shud arrive 2 hours late, none other than Purple himself. Needless to say I still gave him his chance to beat me in"his" house...the result. Ninja 2...Purple 0. Scores are not important just the victory. So I came, I saw, I left with their money. It was a beautiful night. Black Reign baby. And just so there is no confusion...I am not afraid to bowl against anyone but I am also nobody's fool. I'm not just gonna give you my money.

Classic Walk Down, I can respect your swagger, however your man Little Rod Dawg, had to pay tonight at Cozy, for using my government on FB while refusing to call me Big Dawg like I told him! Well UBA, Paul Rodriguez, was forced to call me Big Dawg. He won the first two (1st game was a win only because I opened in the tenth), then he Lost a 62 pin advantage in the 3rd (235-165, with a miss in the tenth playing around) He then ups the money to only lose the next two games 204-180, 223-174... So sir its Big Dawg aka "Let You Tell It" reppin STRICTLY BIZNE$$
Thanks for the Gas money.

I may be new to UBA, but I am nowhere new to bowling, yes I am an old head. First and foremost I am mentally tough so "miss me with the intimidation" it doesn't work your either going to Lose or Beat me, But like Grandma said in the Klumps "I Aint No Easy Win Ni****a!!!" I do this for fun and you can't bait me into giving away cash. But if you want to fund Strictly Business and our many ventures we will accept your monetary offers..
Since I am an educator please write this down you will be tested on it later after you lose... Lets Begin.....

UBA Squad: Strictly Business... You may now make up your jokes, this is why your reading.

My UBA Name: "Let You Tell It" speaks for itself. You may hear me called Big Dawg, if you can't figure that out stop drinking cheap booze that cost $1 per fifth. If we bowl and you lose, as my name says, "You" explain the reason you lost, I could care less what your excuse is going to be on why you have less pins then me. If you win, I'll shake your hand and still care less. But you'll have my respect for 13.45 minutes maybe 20 if the Pepsi is on you. After that I could still care less
I hope your taking notes there will be a test after bowling.
Video tapping: I have a real life where parents pay attention to what I do when I am on camera please don't act like we are in the bar 27 pints in.. Its all I ask. Remember nothing is lost on the net.. Thank You for respecting my wishes.. Moving on!!
Bowling Style: Old School. 25-15, 20-10, maybe when I really feel like bowling 15-5 and get my Walter Ray on!! (Pause) I don't cover a thousand boards with 20mile a hour of revs. I am writer and do a lot of typing, my wrists are important too me (Pause!! Yea you thought about saying something) Man please who wants to throw the ball like a damn baseball! To sum up my style I am like a good mini van, looks OK, effective for what it is, But chicks aren't going to think it's hot,, but on a cold day they'll rock with you. I'll make 195-249 look real good!!
Thoughts on Bowling period: Its not that serious, I have been around this sport since 1980 and have seen real pro's and cats who love to sit in the bowling alley and talk about the cats they see each week and gamble with. Not impressed. If I haven't seen you under the lights on ESPN you can be got!! Hell, I got Parker Bone in a Pro Am years ago.. (Pause) Yea he was going hard too. (Pause) 269 to 255.. What!! Did it make me any money nope so as I said "Its not that serious" but some of you name dropers like stuff like that so I figured I play to the crowd.. Are you still paying attention. Your notes better be up to par,, I am going to check when I see you on the lanes.. For the record and in all seriousness, I educate children for a living, write books, publish other folks book and speak in public around the country. When I tell you I can't make a UBA event I am far from scared, I am out making a difference. If its that serious I'll come to your house and give you a shot at beating me. (Pause since that seems to effect the way some of you think) The few dollars I win or lose means nothing since I don't feed my family or my business from bowling. Don't get that excited as I said its not that serious. But if you let a cat like me beat you and you live in a bowling alley you suck and you should jump off a bridge.. The Verrazano will do the job!! Watch Saturday Night Fever if you don't believe me.. What You've never seen it!! Damn Youngin!! Tony was man and Bayridge got shine.. I degress please forgive me.. I had a Bee Gee's song stuck in head.
Finally, Please take note,,,,,
My Mantra >>>>>>>> A mantra is a sound, syllable, word, or group of words that are considered capable of "creating transformation" Told you I was an educator, write that down also, I am sure it will be on the test after a loss. Plus you know you didn't know what word meant.. LOL
The all year Mantra (there's that word again) will be as follows.
1. My UBA name is "Let You Tell It" don't get offended when I don't indulge your fantasies of beating me.
2. I'm like the L.A. Clippers, I am not supposed to win, I have as much talent as any Cat in the league, PLEASE don't let me be ahead in the 9th frame.
4. Put Your Powder away.. I am not getting slap and filmed for missing a damn 5 pin!! OK so I won't fall in line.. Do I strike you as a Cat who does! Hope your still taking notes.
3. I have BILLS, YOUR NOT GETTING MY SHIRT or MY GRANTS & BENJAMINS! if you don't know what those are, you have been broke for too long and bowling might not be for you since you are obviously not making enough money in your life.. OH WELL!!!
Thank you for taking the time out to learn who Big Dawg is..
Not for a moment of reality, my websites are www.BravinPublishing.com and www.KLthewriter.com and I am really a 14 year educator and I am trying to change the world. If you would like one of the books I have written please let me know, UBA bowlers get a discount on any purchase and if you want to write a book you'll get a discount on our services. If you're having problems with your child's education don't wait until their failing to ask me some questions on what can be done to save their grade and self-respect. Also if you want a professional plan written up, you'll get a discount on that for being a UBA bowler. Now lets have fun and see where we all can take this UBA thing.. God Bless.

So this past Monday in my three man league I find myself alone to bowl against the other team of three. 3 games, 21 point system. I get there late so of course the other team takes advantage of that and bowls against the three blind scores. They win the game by 8 sticks. Motivation. They tried to take advantage of the kid and thought I was a pushover. NOT. I bowled (2) 200 plus games and won each game by 40 plus and took 17 of 21 pts. Lesson here....never underestimate your opponent. Black Reign baby. Then I worked out on Thursday with a 193,204, and a 255 in that order for a 652 series. Still searching for that elusive 300.......
