Mika on the telecasts
« on: October 21, 2007, 11:09:03 AM »
Poor Brunswick

Anyone else notice that whenever he seems to be on TV he is using some discontinued ball or something that isn't exactly a good seller.

Let's review:

He shot 300 with a Stinger 2-piece particle (I'm sure Ebonite really sold a lot of those because of that show)

Last year he was on TV with a Blazing Inferno, which was discontinued and even when on the line didn't sell well.

There have been some others but the specifics escape me.  As a ball rep. Benoit has to be shaking his head.  He gets his guy to the show and can't get a new piece in his hand.

I just found it amusing today when I saw the Smokin Inferno in his hand.

Anyone else notice this?

I mean look at Tommy Jones he might use the latest ebonite piece, but its almost always low end. But you don't see Ebo getting upset because he has too much hand(his game doesn't fit) the NVS.


TJ spent almost a whole year throwing The One.  I believe he used a Total NV to win the TOC.  And an Angular One at the Masters (of course, he didn't win that one).  He did beat Voss with an Ice a few years ago.

he threw an ice on the roll to riches and kent threw a vibe. tj threw a raid i believe on the all star shootout. to me no matter what they throw having a staffer win for you is good no matter what. heck one of the girls i think it was CDB threw an origonal inferno.

Jones threw an Ice to win a regular tournament once. Two years ago on Roll To Riches, he was throwing a Black Ice, and the lanes were so dry the thing was da*n near doing a U-turn at 40 feet and coming back to him.
