Does anyone really think that ESPN gets lower ratings for Bowling than say ladies pool, poker &  the strong man competition? I find that hard to believe. Andi if it's true, it explains a great deal about what is wrong with this country.

If that doesn't blow your mind, remember that the PWBA said repeatedly that they got higher ratings than NHL hockey.  And they canned the PWBA shows.

I like the strong man competitions.  They always have to do stupid stuff like carry boulders from one end of a track to the other, or pull busses and airplanes.  I understand that when you get to that level of weights, it's not practical to use real weights like you'd find in a gym, but it's still weird to see a competition to see who can pull an airplane down a runway faster.

shelley,
with all due respect - the pwba shows got canned when the tour got canned. ESPN did make the cost of the pwba shows out of reach to the tentative new owner of the pwba tour, however, making the purchase of the organization fall through...
