Geez. More swearing? (I'm not watching right now...)

It's getting really out of hand. Every week someone's swearing. They used to keep it in check...at least for TV. Where's the professionalism?

Well, Wes has a mic on and so does Simard.  As so many politicians have learned, the mic is ALWAYS on.

I've heard that it was both. Some thought it was Wes, some thought it was Ken...

I could care less who.

I openly admit that I swear while bowling, but I'm not a professional. This is their job, and they should behave as such, in my opinion.

Mics really shouldn't have been on at that point, there's no reason.  I think if they charge wes, he could probably appeal it and win...

That makes total sense to me, but personally, I'd rather assume the mic is always on, just in case.

I believe their mics are turned on manually by the little black box on their hip.

Brian Voss on ESPN Classic today said something that they bleeped out.
He did it right after he beat Norm Duke in the finals, I think he forgot he was wearing a mic.  Must be the theme today.

They really didn't need to have the mic's turned up when Wes and Ken were talking and that's why they probably didn't keep it in check thinking they were off. By the way, they can be controlled other than the receiver on the bowler.

The Brian Voss show was the 1997 Northwest Classic. It was live on ESPN and he did go "F*** Yeah!" which was unbleeped at the time when he was walking around after the game was done and then realized he still had the mic on. Marshall Holman made a joking comment like "well, we are now a rated R show"

I believe Couch dropped the f bomb too...after the shot in the 10th where he left the 3-9, he walked it out left and said "f***, that lane always bails on on me..."

How many little kids watch the PBA on TV anyway? Youre right, cartoons are just as bad and even worse at times. I really could care less. My kids dont watch it. How old are we?

If it was a big enough issue for the PBA or ESPN, than they could go on a delay like SNL.

But with the salty language heard from NBA / NFL players and coaches nobody thinks it's a big deal anymore.

Maybe the PBA should be fining these guys for cursing instead of the shot clock violations.

I have watched the PBA since I was 3 years old. In fact, I used to sit on the couch and rewind it and watch it back to back, sometimes up to 6 times in a row while my dad mowed the lawn and did laundry.

To all the people who say "So what, they're going to hear cuss words anyway..." That may be true, but think of it this way.

A man gets shot, then gets shot again. Doesn't matter, because it's not the first time, right? No, it still matters. Minimal exposure is better for the youngsters. Yes, they hear it...but that doesn't mean every other word they hear should be an f***bomb
