Where are they now?
« on: February 22, 2017, 11:00:00 AM »
After almost 14 years on BR (aug. 2003 as ADDIK) I've met many new friends and made lasting ones. Some became like a big brother "tenpinspro" and like my little brother "geetaan"....

I know many others, whom I see every year at tournaments, and some in other leagues.

But a few BR members, whom I never met..... I wonder where they are now..

MegaMav
tekneek
excaliber
Justdale
T Brockette
nicanor

And that Doc something guy......
T GOD

Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

aka addik since 2003

Tekneek is out of the bowling business, and is enjoyable golf (from what he tells me!)

T Brockette, nicest guy you'll ever meet. He's just getting back into bowling and is here every now and then.

I wanna know what happened to leftside!

Justdale is a friend of mine.  Recently signed on with Storm and runs a shop.

Speaking of "where are they now?" I wonder whatever happened to JustRico? He use to comment pretty regularly on here and I haven't seen him post in quite some time.

  I wondered where he went as well.... Always very informative on knowledge of the game.

Doesn't T GOD = kotm (king of the mill)?

I left the bowling business in 2009 and took off 5 years. I would lurk here from time to time even during my time away from bowling. It's crazy that this March 30, will mark my 16th year on ballreviews. That's actually right around the time I first started bowling at 16-17.

There was a really bad period on this website years ago when anyone who had a great wealth of knowledge to share, or would answer people's questions with expert insight the trolls and misinformed would argue back and forth with the experts to the point that a lot of good members left.

Throw in the political mess from the Miscellaneous - Non Bowling Related forum and you drove away another half of the community, who political views aside were here for one reason..... to learn more about a game they like/love. The fights there spilled over to the point that no one respected each other's views on bowling itself. Lots of great people left this place, but bowling's home is on social media for the true growth of the sport. This site is a great resource though for equipment.

This is why we can't have nice things.

I left the site years ago, only lurk from time to time now.  I rarely recognize a user anymore.

Thanks for the shout out Impending Doom. I am still alive and kicking and currently bowling only one league (Not very good I might add). I used to be heavy into the buying, selling and trading on site, and was here all the time. But don't really do that anymore so now I mostly just lurk. Also my wife ran a center for almost 10 years so I really was integrated into the bowling community.

You might be talking about Sawbones as the Doc guy. If so, he passed away several years ago.

xrayjay - Thank you so much for asking what some of us old timers have been up too.

T, you're my favorite Texan! I don't know if he was asking about Doc Hollywood or Bones.

Thank you my friend. Sure would be nice to have another get together. You might be right about Doc Hollywood.
