Guys, did it ever occur to those of you bashing Ronnie that Ronnie and Joe may have been bantering like that throughout the competition, not just during those final shots? Now, while the "this is the shot of your life" comment probably only came up on that occassion, I'm sure there were plenty of other moments when they were in each other's ears. If Joe didn't want Ronnie talking, I'm guessing it would've come up before that shot. The fact is Joe made two poor shots at the worst possible time. I feel for him, but it's on him. I don't think you'd hear him putting it on Ronnie for talking too much. That's like when people give their leaguemates crap for talking to a guy who is trying to shoot 300 or mentioning it to them. There is no such thing as jinxing someone. Joe had a shot, and he didn't come through. Case closed.

I've only bowled 300, but I've benched 345
