No Bowling Magazines?!?! What up with that?!
« on: January 26, 2004, 06:54:59 AM »
Just ran over to Borders bookstore tonight and was wandering around by the magazines. Looked high and low, but not a single bowling magazine. Granted, I expect the 5 billion plus golf magazines, but there had to be at least 8 boxing magazines. I KNOW there are more people around the country that bowl than box, so why the hell don't we have more bowling magazines?

Boxing pulls more Spectators than Bowling.

Winning and Losing are both very temporary things. Having done one or the other, we move on. Gloating over Victory or Sulking in Defeat is a good way to Stand Still.

Answers will come flowing huh? Kinda like my Crunchtime vs. Thing Returns post on the Dynothane boards? Lol, no seriously, I was just looking for some reading material while I was killing some time and thought what the hell, I'll read a bowling magazine...only there wasn't any...at all....none....
Also, I was just using boxing as an example. There were also 3 paintball magazines. I'm sure there's more bowlers than paintballers, and I know that paintball isn't really a spectator sport...soooo....

This is why the Tour went broke, I was told the year CBS had picked them up, they had to sell their own ad time.  Nobody wanted the slots...we're simply blue collar Fred Flinstone, Al Bundy types in the media world.  Look at our 4 movies...Dreamer, KingPin, Greedy, and the Great Lebowsky??  How serious were any of those..closest was Dreamer and he rode the bus with 1 ball to bowl a Pro tournament!??.  Anyway, according to Bones...we can't read and I believe him!
