I for one am very happy to see Gary get it. Great player with a timeless delivery and accuracy. Plus the best sportsmanship I can remeber in a long time. Younger players could learn a lot from watching Gary conduct himself on and off the lanes.

But most will watch his revs and assume they can do better than his 35 year career; they should be so lucky; they should be so good!

I really liked his attitude, and his game.

If you weren't from OKC, he bowled okay for you. He would hardly say anything to you at all. If you were from OKC, it was different, big games and lots of interaction. He could be assigned to bowl on your lanes and he'd be off talking to some friends from the city.

I also believe you could say poor things about any pro bowler. Many say bad things about many of the stars of yesteryear and present.....wish it would have been a better experience for you.
"Dickinson, a three-time Steve Nagy PBA Sportsmanship Award winner from 1972-74, won three Tour titles in 1973." This is a peer given award...Gary does typify being a gentleman on and off the lanes.
BTW--The one guy who I think most emulates Gary's game is Dave Arnold both very robot like but accurate as heck with medium revs and very stoic....not what the new style player is all about in any way, shape or form.

But he still was a good choice and can still bowl.

He'll have to really step up in the next 4 games to get to the show.
