I HIGHLY doubt it.  Where will the competition be?  Ebonite will monopolize the industry!

This is very true, in addition storm has agreed to sign under Ebonites contract just as Hammer did. Now the only 2 real competitors is Ebonite International and Banger Bowling... imagine that.

Someone I know just came and told me that the PBA has signed a deal with Coca-Cola to be the new major sponsor.  And that next years events will all have a minimum prize fund of $1,000,000, and majors will have a $5,000,000 prize fund.  And also all broadcasts will be aired live in prime time on NBC.

Someone told me.  So it must be true.

So the next ball will have an Ebonite core and a Brunwick cover and be called the Ebowick VISTA, right?

Is that true? Storm is going to be with Ebonite now. I was looking forward to buying more storm equipment but if thats the case, then I'll be moving to Lanemasters then. I never bowled good with any of ebonites coverstocks and was bowling great with storms coverstocks. I like brunswick too but if they are going to ebonite, then screw them too. I think it might just be a rumor, at least i hope so. If not, Lanemasters here i come.

Brunswick is a massive beyond massive company, a very small part of which makes bowling balls . . Brunswick will either keep making balls, or stop making balls, there will be no buyouts, especially by a company whose only business is bowling.  I can see Storm being bought by somebody, but I doubt that will be in the near future.

Not really sure how deep Ebonite's pockets are, but deep enough to buy some of the responses from some of you

This just in:
Ebonite has bought Nascar, starting in 2008 it will be known as the NASCAR Ebonite  Cup. The trophy will be redesigned with the Ebonite logo and a bowling ball on top which the winner will have their car number and color scheme as part of the next high end ball. Rumor has it they are also interested in purchasing Indy car circuit (and name it the Hammer car circuit) where every car will be named after a bowling ball and drivers are required to have ball designs on their helmets.

Sorry, bored at work during a holiday weekend.
