Lot of shots suck today.  One shot was blurred, then one shot didn't even show the pins.  You didn't know what Lawrence left.  Horribly shot if you ask me.  Especially that close-up of the 7 pin.  What if he missed to the right.  That would have looked plain stupid.

Poor camera shots, poor commentating and even poor bowling.  Doesn't make for a great show.

Camera sucks a lot.  Football time......

PS- i think this is proof of that one discussion we had about tweeners actually have a disadvantage (wiseman and lawrence).....no huge hook, no 3 board hook seemed to be a disadvantage today...

Bob7--Why is Edwards a stroker?  Because he went straighter on the show?  He's as much a tweener as Wiseman is.  He just used a better trajectory and with more speed and less reaction.  I bet their stats are very similar.

I think it is more accurate to just call him a straighter player rather than a stroker.  He was playing a stroker line, but he is a tweener.  But wiseman does hit up more than Edwards.

See my point was really about their lines.  Lawrence was a fluffer, but he was playing a semi-swing like Wiseman. (call it a tweener line)  Edwards was playing the stroker line, with power, and Hurd was playing the power line.  Tweener line really suffered.
