You know, due to the hyphen in the thread title, I thought someone had invented a new sport.

I think you’re looking for “ambiguously”?

That’s what I said. The Ambiguously Gay Bowling Team. You must have misunderstood my post.

This is funny. Unfortunately I can come up with nothing… I find myself out of my league. :rolleyes:
\ league----ha ha! \
See, there you go. I have proved my lack of perverted humor—the best joke I can come up with is a play on a BORING word!
I feel uninspired! ☹

For the last two years my gay bowling team was named “Thar She Bowls.” Although the subtlety was lost on many people and they wound up calling us “Thar She Blows.”
So this year we changed it to “Lanes Bryant.” The other one we came up with was “Britney Spares,” but that got voted down. [One guy was bi-sexual and insisted it was too “gay” :rolleyes:.]

Only thing I’m coming up with is **The Smithers’**. Lame, I know.
