Extremely Hard Decision to be Made
« on: March 07, 2009, 07:51:41 AM »
My spare game's really going down hill, I have no plastic ball(arsenal in profile), and I have a 2nd Drill Morich Awesome Flip that i bought got for free and payed $20 to plug and redrill it, my friend wants to buy it from me for $120, which seems phenomenal, but that Awesome Flip has really, really, been working for me(shot at 2 300s in the last week), but should I sell my 2nd drill Awesome Flip for $120 and could buy a spare ball and more, or keep the ball and try working on my spare game with my reactives until i have $40 for a plastic.

This seems to be a hard decision for me can anyone help?

Bowling balls are simply tools. Dont get attached to any of your tools. remember they are just tools. The real ability is you not your tools. If you need a spare ball more that this ball, then get a spare ball.

The problem is that in our world there is no survival of the fittest.  

There's welfare and the entitlement that we deserve what we want without working for it.  The whole idea that I could get 160 for a ball worth 30 is testiment to this. Why work, why earn, when I can find a dummy or scam the extra money?  If Darwin had his way, both parties should be taken out.

Im so glad people are brainwashed to think that TRACK sucks. And its even funnier when im carrying with my TRACK ball and they're going flat ten with their OTHER BRANDS ball.

I call BS. You mean to tell me you gave him his money back, and gave away your ball for free? Um, not buying that for a second. Someone is just trying to get a free 'donated' spare ball again.

Wow. Dick move.

I'm also a JBT bowler, and you can bet that I'm not exactly proud I'm going to be bowling JBTs alongside you at some point. Good luck keeping your 'friends' around for very long.

How about, instead of working on your spare game, you work on your attitude towards life and stop trying to screw anything with a pulse. Then once you've got the attitude of a winner, rather than a total dick, you can become a winner.

i dont see what was wrong with the original deal. his friend got scammed. he should have known better, a 2-3 year old ball that would be on its 3rd drill for 160? cmon you gotta be smarter than that. its all apart of the world, survival of the fittest. i would have kept the money and given it back if the friend asked for it. it was a smart business decision for ryan to make that deal. morals and ethics mean nothing in this country anymore. you have to forgo them to make it in this world.

btw i was averaging 180 when i was in 8th grade with almost as many revs. its not hard especially on todays house shots
