Ok since it supposedly worked to some degree 10+ years ago, here is my advice for those in charge of PBA Xtra Frame:
1) If you want it to be truly Xtra Frame, do the following.
2) Have the pros come up to camera before and after matches going into detail what balls they used, the grit finish, and the drilling layout. I mean make it super technical. Casual fans aren't subscribing, just hardcore fans.
3) Always have an HD camera at least from behind the bowlers. Throw out the 3/4 camera that I've hated since the 1990s. You can't see anything from that angle. And reduce the cameras on the approach. I don't need to see their follow through while the ball mysteriously makes its way down the lane off camera.
4) Disregard crowds. I don't care about crowds on Xtra frame.
5) Have the show announced by PBA bowlers themselves that are still bowling. They know what's going on more than these other losers - especially that new guy on the ESPN broadcast that treats bowling like golf - boring boring boring.
6) Be more clear on what is upcoming schedule on Xtra frame so customers know what they are getting and make the payments like Netflix. Join or cancel without fee anytime.
7) Ok this is 2016, if golf can show the entire flight path, ball speed, ball rotation, ball loft angle, ball impact, ball roll, etc., the least bowling can do is provide: ball speed, ball revs, ball angle of entry or rotation, and exact ball weight. C'mon guys! This isn't about money. This is common sense!
