Should be a good show.  Oh God, if lonnie does do that famous verb, that will be horrendus......

Too bad he didn't throw Circle on the show.  I wonder if it was because of reaction, or $$$?

I never dreamed it would be me, My name for all eternity, Recorded here at this hallowed place Alas, my name, no more my face. "In the line of duty," I hear them say: My family now the price to pay. My folded flag stained with their tears; We only had those few short years. The badge no longer on my chest, I sleep now in eternal rest. My sword I pass to those behind, And pray they keep this thought in mind. I never dreamed it would be me, And with heavy heart and bended knee, I ask for all here from the past: Dear God, let my name be the last.

Blaming Waliczek for not throwing circle is missing a point.  Would you all feel comfortable, bowling for the cash, throwing equipment that you're not all that familiar with?  I wouldn't.  Give him some time to get used to Circle and understand what each ball can and cannot do.  If I were him in that position I'd have thrown a Buzzsaw, not Circle, because I know what a Buzzsaw can do and I'm clueless with Circle.  I'd guess that if he makes another show you'll see Circle - he'll be more familiar with it by then.

Ragnar sure likes to throw his purdy Uranium Buzzsaw.

If he predominately used Circle during the week, then switched to Brunswick for the show, it was a bad move and Circle got the shaft.  If he used a little bit of everything during the week, and he used the X-Zone on TV (gee, he's had such good luck with it in the past...  ) because he felt most comfortable with it, no foul.  Still, it must be an interesting contract to be on staff, and be allowed to use other manufacturer's equipment, especially on TV.  I know he wasn't signed for long, and Circle doesn't have a huge line of equipment, but isn't a staffer's job to sell equipment?  Hard to sell Circle when you're throwing Brunswick.
