Okay, here we go.

I will reply to this only because Rick is a co-worker and also a friend.

The amount of time Rick spends working on Brunswickinsiders is incredible. Why he hasn't updated it is because he hasn't had time. He has just spent 21 of the last 24 weeks on the road with the tour. He just arrived home for a few days before he hits the road again for three weeks.

Like everyone else, Rick has a personal life also. He has 2 boys that haven't seen there father much in the past 6 months and he has a wonderful girlfriend that he needs to spend time with also.

Rick is not paid extra for doing Brunswickindiders. He does it out of love for the sport and the love for Brunswick. So please, cut the man a little slack and let him take care of some family issues before you start bbq'ing him.

You will find no one who has a deeper passion for the Sport of Bowling.

Sammy. IMO, your post was classless. I hope you see this, and apologize.

I'll keep this short and sweet.  I hope at age 44 that I have better things to do with my time than post things a 14 year old would post on the ballreviews forums.  Rick nor anyone from Brunswick owes you any explanation, and for you to come to any conclusion about him or the company is quite ignorant, especially for someone your age.

Sammy,

  It was an insult to Ricks efforts the way you carried on. Verbs said it
all right in Ricks defense. If you could only witness how many directions
he gets pulled when out there. He deserves a medal, not a grillin'.

  That being said, thanks for at least saying "good job".

I once created and ran a large website for Honda Nighthawk motorcyles. It wasn't a paying proposition. Never intented to make money. Just did it for the fun of it. It took up a HUGE amount of time to create, and even more time to maintain. It was "on the air" for around 3 years. One of the main reasons I quit maintaining it was the rude people who expected me to jump through hoops for them for absolutely no pay. People who wouldn't give an ounce of effort themselves, but expected others to cater to them. There's a lot more of those people out there than you could imagine. Remember "The Little Red Hen" story?

actually I like his site the BEST....that said...FINISH the $%%^#& job....

hoping this get's back to him somehow....."too busy"...not a legit excuse...



I know I already voiced my opinion, but I read this reply again, and I felt the need to say that this is one of the most ARROGANT, TASTELESS pieces or GARBAGE I have ever read. It makes me sick. Sorry to be so blunt, but I meant it.
