They've been bowling through commercials in the first two matches the past couple weeks -- it lets them go commercial-free in the title match.  I actually like it.

Shut up crybaby.  That is way better than showing me every single frame.  Back in the day, they always bowled through commercials.

Speaking of commercials, just once I would like to see a photo of the SECOND Lumber Liquidators store, or better yet, another commercial for those guys altogether. This is worse than seeing the Walter Ray "He Left It Open". At least we only had to see that same commercial for two months before Denny's decided to start airing another spot.

the whole point is that they should not have to bowl through commercials. there is no excuse for this. pba telecasts used to be able to show a 5 man stepladder final without bowling through commercials. please bring back the good old days when you saw an entire telecast.

I have a solution. Don't show the ladies at all. Is anyone going to miss them?

I think you're in the minority on that one. They are incredibly boring.
