Why should it bother you what bowlers wear?
I stated this many times about this sport. It appears that bowling is the only sport that the casual or league bowler can't wear any kind of apparel representing some manufacturer, because if they do they are labeled a "loser" or some kind of "pro wanna be".
It's funny you can wear a Football or Hockey jersey (and don't play the sport), but as soon as you buy a Storm Bowling Shirt, "loser!"
Yup, this attitude just puzzles me... That's why many of my friends think bowlers are "dorks, beer drinkers, fat low lifers, and drama queens" In fact, this site has changed a lot from ten years ago.
Years ago, I raced dirt bikes to shifters, and wore name brand shirts and jerseys. I also surfed, wore quicksilver and rusty to represent the brands I liked. I wore expensive golf shirts when I golfed, because they look good and felt good. No beef, no put-downs, no degrading, etc...from others...
BUT in bowling, someone wears bowling brand shirts form time to time, he/she is labeled a wanna be??? WTF?! HAHAHA...It's a bowling (brand) shirt and they're bowling. So, only staffers can wear brand shirts? I guess these same people might be wearing surf/skate brand clothing (quicksilver, Rusty, BB, etc..) but are kooks cause they can't surf or skate.
These same people might be wearing MMA/MA shirts but never even step foot on the mat or fought in tourneys. I wear these shirts because I did these sports/activities now or before.....Arm sleeves are no different than head bands, ear phones, or your favorite bowling shirt - name brand or not. These people who down grade others for what they wear at leagues really don't have much in life. Probably wished they made 75-100K a year, had good credit, had a loving wife, honest kids, or drove a 911. Their life sucks so they down grade others to make themselves feel better.
