How would you feel if they changed the patterns totally? It may be happening soon.

I don't think they need to change the patterns.  I think another way to make it a little more of a challenge would be to not let them practice on the tv pair.  Give maybe 2 shots on each lane.  They allow them to much time on the lanes to burn the line in.

A 201 to 193 win is less appealing than a 269-270 win.. Better ratings, etc..

The patterns have been modified from last season. Check some of the regional scores and the PBA forums.  The scores are way down and the general consensous is all of the patterns are alot different despite being named the same and have the same lengths.  I've only played Cheetah and Shark on the new modifications and they are WAY different than the general expectations of them.
