I just don't like his attitude on television. He may be a cool guy but I just don't like his personality.

What's sad to say is that PA has...matured. I mean, when he was just a young colt on the regional Tour...I've spoken with several folks and they thought he was just a little baby/prick.

I like a little attitude on the telecasts.  If you really want the ratings to go down, stick to the Tim Crisses and Mike Minemans of the world.  Quite boring I must say.  The PBA needs more PAs, PDWs, TJs.  We need more fireballers to jazz the tour up.  Keep it respectable of course.  Personality will only add to the interest of the PBA.

Well I don't mind a little attitude, but be a little humble when the shots aren't going your way.  Also, when your screaming & shouting at the end of a match, be a little coherant so we can hear what you're sayin.  I'm just sayin.  I hope he isn't paying his hair stylist either.

  I can appreciate that we all have differing likes, but if this is the way the PBA is headed, GOOD RIDDANCE.

  I love bowling, been doing it for over 25 years now.  I like to win and I HATE to lose. But, win or lose, I don't act like an immature, whining azzhole, and I hate it when the men who are supposed to be respected professional ambassadors of the game, in the highest spotlight events we have in the most visual arenas, act like childish, irrational idiots.

  I understand excitement.  The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat,  I just fail to see where vocalizing your most intimate thoughts and animating them into incoherent actions presents an image that many people will like, understand, or appreciate.  Nor will it be looked upon as an activity that they would want to participate in or have their children get involved in.

  You can be exciting, thrilling, and compelling without having a seemingly uncontrollable, unintelligible outburst reaction.  Show your excitement at getting that big strike when you need it to win, but do it with class, not some mixed martial arts looking " crotch chop" type of action, punctuated with some expletive or luridly laced tirade.

I'm really tired of the whining, so, JUST SHUT UP AND BOWL!

I'm a fairly young person and I hate the "attitude movement" in all sports. The concept of "in your face" is so tired and cheap, and it's really silly.

Also, where I grew up, if you got "in someone's face" over an athletic event, you would probably get your a** whipped once and learn exactly where you stood.

Kind of makes me sad to see young kids whose parents allow them to get away with it because IMO, it says something about the parenting.

For adults to continue to do it as adults says something about their intellect.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way. Lol. Maybe I'm old fashioned but I like to watch someone like Steve Jaros, Norm Duke, Doug Kent or Tony Reyes on TV. Those guys are the ones that are fun to watch, they get up and do their job while having a good time and attitude. You've got to be kidding me with all the crotch chops and stuff, after all it is just bowling. It's not like PDW just threw the game winning touchdown pass in the superbowl, give me a break. Sorry if that offended any of you but IT IS just bowling. Lol.

Doug Kent has been one of my favorites for a while . .  Wait for Rhino to get comfy on tv, he won't be so stone faced and quiet like he was last week.  He's freakin intense when he's bowling though.

He used to come up here and bowl the Coors Light tourney, and usually did really well. Could be his week to get it done, with only one match standing in his way.

If PA makes it to the end, I hope Rhino tears him apart!!
