In his pre-semifinal interview he mentioned a bowling alley in Erie, PA called "Rolling Meadows" and I just so happen to WORK THERE at the front desk and in the pro shop.

Mike is the man, very personable and funny and I am very glad he now has a title under his belt.  This should be the first of many, the guy throws a wicked shot.

No doubt about it "choogs" has some serious game with that tweener style of his;the "flop" was great as well.Traber needed the landing gear for his ball,wasn't disappointed that "choogs" took him out.

I was glad Machuga won, he bowled great and was simply the better man.  Bill bowled great too, but what chu gonna do?  I found the flop funny and true to Mike Machuga, i'm sick of people and the media shooting down Machuga for being a bad influence on kids, if anyone is stupid enough to try it i could care less if they get hurt.

People worrying about kids trying to do the flop like Mike. How about teaching the kids to bowl like Mike.

Another classic example of adults allowing TV to teach their children instead of doing it themselves.

The game/match was over .......he had won regardless........so what ?!

The people pissed here are the same who got pissed when Duke threw the towel shot last year.

Relax everyone!

Hey....I thought I saw someone say that it made SportsCenter ?  Great if it did.....I suppose these people are also the ones that say "our sport doens't get any attention"!  Well....THAT CAN ONLY help!!  It may make people say.."what's that all about....looks like fun to me! maybe bowling IS COOL!?"

Ever think about that.......

Bottom line........game over......so what !

I thought the flop was wonderful entertainment. I had seen it before, so I knew he might, if given the opportunity. Its no different than Pate or Annika diving into the lake beside the 18th hole or Hale Irwin's victory lap or backflips done by NASCAR drivers.

You people that think the flop was so wrong, I have to disagree with you.  What is bowling without all the side shows that goes with it?  It's just bowling that people have drawn away from.  This bring ENTERTAINMENT to the sport again.  I think it might be one of the greatest act in the sport.  I bet the next time he bowls you'll be wanting to see him do the 'flop' again.  Im pretty sure he will not be injured as been told he has done it several times.  I have to respect anyone that is willing to sacrafice there body to put on a good show!  

Now I have to agree that what Ernie Schlegel did to Randy Pederson was totally wrong!  When you are talking a bunch of trash on live TV, that is due for the next weeks payperview match with the boxing gloves.  Its one thing to talk trash, and then to do something is another.  It probably would of been better if Ernie would of done the chicken dance than run around saying 'O my god, O my god, I cant believe it' and whatever else he was saying.  

I wounder if Walter Ray can do the electric slide?????

Ya should have seen Mike & Norm Duke a half hour before the start of round 16.  The other 14 were practicing & these 2 were putting on a show & a half for croud.  Quite the deal.

I cant believe the outcome of this. I understand the debate on whether this was classy for choogs to do or not, but I personally dont understand how so many people thinks it was so cool for him to do. He just went down the lane.....WOW!!!!!! Not...

But with the last post I do agree, anything to give the PBA a little more exposure  is good.
