Hmm...I don't feel disrespected, unless someone starts throwing some snow tire on my line, or unless they start throwing a snow tire into my hold area.  I mean, that kind of aggressive, offensive (defensive?) behavior is fine for the pros, but not in league or local tourneys.  With the oils and volumes used in the houses in my area, throwing a 'normal' ball on my line usually has little impact.  JMO

Why isn't it for league or tournament players? If you can score and at the same time increase the odds that your opponent scores lower, why shouldn't you do it? Because bowling isn't a sport, just a hobby?

I have bowled on a league where a team would do this during the warm up time they more in less take sanded balls and mess the outside of 10 all up and then they go and play there deep inside line.So next time we bowled them, we did almost the same thing to them, and you know what it worked.league play is just like any other competition. What ever it takes to win, i agree with letsbowl4money..

If this happens again Royak just give it back to them or just move over a few boards etc

i agree  with  blows and letbowl4money, but here is the funny part. i was bowling on the 10th board but it has gotten so dry in this  house that i moved in from 10 to 12 board straight down and in . real simple .i have been average about 25 pins higher bowling on 12 as suppose to 10 . here is the killing part it looks like my ball is rolling over the 15 board thats when them dumb --- people start to hit my line. but it aint my line . you feel me
