 while what he accomplished was something to be proud of, the remarks he made about it, and the way he acted while doing so, sure make him seem petty and immature.
 

 For somone trying to change their image to a more mature one by changing from Ritchie to Dick Allen, he sure doesn't act more mature.

"Dick" Allen on his best day will not be worthy to tie Walter Rays shoes. Win 40 + titles and then we will see...

hey ya know i kinda agree with what you are saying, he probably shouldnt have called out walter ray, but i know ritchie (dick) on a personal level
 
he is a great guy and very funny, im sure none of you all have met him so i dont expect you all to agree with me
but i know he meant it as a joke only. he isnt a cocky type of guy

He's bowling good now, no doubt. And, he may be a heck of a guy.

I just find irony in someone who claims to now want to project a mature, "fatherly" type character so badly as to change from calling himself Ritchie to calling himself the more stately name of Dick, yet displays an obvious action that doesn't seem to further that desire and, in fact, undermines his own efforts at legitimacy.

How appropriate he changed his first name to "Dick".............
 
He may have won this match but he's not in Walter Ray's class by a mile.

I thought it was pretty immature and this is why the PBA has the image it does and soon i believe the PBA will go under if it doesnt change its marketing structure. Professional Bullriders make more than proffesional bowlers. Its all about sponsorship and whomever the PBA has doing their marketing is doing a pretty poor job.

 

Also the decision to stay in Vegas for weeks and not travel around will dis-interest alot of people with the PBA. I always, always looked forward to going and seeing the pro's when they came to town. Now they dont even travel. They money on tour is pitiful and only a handful can actually survive. Plus the TV coverage is really boring, id rather watch golf.

I lost what little respect I had for Ritchie Allen today. A petty and immature fool who thinks changing his name makes him an adult.... Poor performance on many levels....

Sigh.

Just curious what he did that warrants a loss of respect.  He gave Chris tons of respect in his interviews....and was honest when he was asked about Chris' double bad break.  If you honestly think that pros "really hate it" when the other guy gets a bad break you're just kidding yourself.
