I just have a hunch about this..

Mike Wolfe throwing a Columbia Action will win his 2nd career title..

If not him, I hope Collins in his first TV appearance wins it..

I'll go with Collins. I'm not crazy about Wolfe or Scroggins and I don't know Jurek.

Wolfe throwing Columbia?! No, don't think so!


Hope he wins, but I also wanna see what happens if Collins gets a few bad breaks. Could make for interesting TV and they just may have to go to the 7 second delay! LOL

I believe that Collins has calmed down quite a bit from his younger days.  He is a firey competitor and wears his emotions on his sleeve, no moreso now than any other tour player.

Collins is pretty cool under the gun...I'm going to go with him.

Collins needs to calm down!!!!!!!

Also.....What is Randy talking about.....the Action is not more aggressive thant he TS&A....he has them scuffed/prepped so the Action is more aggressive....but...

He IS throwing the Action better,...no doubt...snuk high a few times w/ the TS&A

Wow.  WTF happened to Scroggs?  I'm only watching the live scoring on PBA.com so I can't see the mess he's making.  He opened both the 7th and 10 frames doing what?

The lack of coolness was something that I noticed with Art Brown when he was on TV at the Masters.  Locally he is a real level headed bowler, quiet and calm.  

Getting pumped up on TV might have had his adrenaline a little higher, and he was getting a little more on the ball to bring it high perhaps.

I wouldn't be surprised if that missed spare in the 9th was just a ho-hum toss down the lane by Collins.  Tell me if I'm wrong.

Hard to tell.  But I think that he knew he had lost the match at that point so he probably did just get up there and toss it.  He was actually a lot cooler than I expected.

He was shooting at a 2 or 8 I think, and barely clipped it.  His spare ball was jumping left on him right before the pin deck.  The 9 whiff was same deal, it was going to be outside left edge, and then the ball jumped.

On the ho-hum scale, I'd give that a 7.  He obviously dropped his ball speed which is why his ball jumped.  It wasn't full out, but you could read his face that doom was on the horizon

--------------------
D <~~~~ Used to be terrible wiffing 10 pins.  Now through much practice, can wiff any single pin spare at any time.

Wolfe did change to The One on one pane and stayed with what appeared to be a Classic Zone on the other.

You guys get the PBA in Canada?  What, does ESPN own TSN or have an agreement or something?

EDIT:  Oh yeah and I loved the part when the cameraman zoomed on her and held there for like 10-15 seconds, with NO prompting.  So Randy and Dave just had to make up something to say about her and Chris's twin brother to make it look the cameraguy wasn't just interested in some good old fashioned cleavage.

This is the second PBA telecast TSN has shown LIVE!!  They usually show the telecasts a week or two later (usually during a weekday while MOST people are at work or school).

My little bro actually brought up the topic about Chris Collins' wife ... LOL!  My little bro also noticed that Chris Collins looks a lot like one my friends especially from the side!!!

Congrats to Mike Wolfe.  He's so smooth and emotionally in control.  I love his game!
