The THB was actually throwing the Track Kinetic.

That was not a Rival. I think it was a Jazz. I am not positive, but I know it wasn't a Rival for sure.

So what is Robert Smith in this case lol because hes making the shot look like a house shot. I know you have to play deep on this pattern, but that deep!?!? I didnt think it was possible.

Max Bob wasn't crossing 38 of them, he wasn't even getting the ball out past 10.  And when you have 600+ revolutions on a bowling ball if you dont create that angle your gonna go high on a shot with that much friction.  I'd like to see some people try that with only ave revs (around 350 or so).  They would be in the ditch.

Barnes was not throwing a Jazz. They look like this:

http://columbia300.com/products/balls_detail.php?PRKey=113

They would not be enough ball for that condition. They would skate 65 feet.

I don't care what you think it was NOT a Rival that ball looked nothing like a Rival. And I don't know if you noticed that ball he was throwing wasn't enough ball that was his problem I think.

Robert Smith=Roids Rage. My first time seeing Smith on TV. The man looked psychotic. In football he would make one good OLB or Strong Safety. In Baseball, he'd make a good 3B-man. How consistent is Smith's delivery? Does he loft the ball like that every time he bowls?

Speaking of Chris Barnes, the Rival seemed to lose power at the midlane. I kept telling him to move right, but he didn't listen. Barnes went down the way of his beloved Kansas Jayhawks last night against those Missouri "ruffians".

I think Brad ran out of energy. Great accomplishment for a 5 seed to make it to the championship round and coming back from a back injury. Loved his intensity throughout the match. He kept it simple too.

THB...a head band in bowling? There are no head bands in bowling...

Just my .02 cents...

Only when he's gotta loft it over the gutter.  He was playing it pretty direct with just a small swing on the Scorpion pattern on that special doubles tournament they did outdoors at the end of last season.

The ball Chris was using was a Rival. The Rival is aggressive but it wasn't enough ball. He needed a stronger surface prep and layout if he wanted to use that ball. He went in with a gameplan and it didn't work out for him. The only way anyone was going to get a good ball reaction was with the low speed like Brad or high rpms like Robert. Mika had an okay look when got a more aggressive ball in his hands. That's just the way the telecast panned out.
