I'm not lefty, but Oatman is an exception.  He has mad charisma.  He is like a P-I-M-P on the approach!

I hope he makes it to the show.  The one he made last year was one of the best of the season.  Nothing makes the show more exciting than watching someone who really looks like they're having fun.

Yeah, he is always smiling and dancing and not cussing like some jerks that make it to the TV show.  And for those that thought I didn't like fat bowlers, Billy ain't no stick.  But he is still awesome to watch because he makes bowling look fun - not some torturous job.

I also have to pull for Bohn though.  He needs another title.

I ain't feeling Bohn anymore.  He got old and his hook got week.  He reminds me of Chris Barnes.  If Oatman and Smith can make the show, this Sunday should be awesome.  I'd like to see Delutz too.

I'd like to see him win this week.  Met him at the US Open last year.  Seemed really nice.

I don't think you are going to see Oatman AND Delutz make the show

Billy's got a road ahead of him.  TD's no pushover and if he wins that, it's Barnes or WRW in the round of 8.  I would not want to have to beat WRW's gutter shot to make the show.  Even if it's Barnes, no matter how he does on TV he's still a killer during the week.

But Billy's on a roll, maybe his momentum will hold up.

Forgive my ignorance, but has an African American won a title in the past decade?  I know Billy is the first to become exempt, but I think I recall another gentleman won a tournament years ago.

Hey, that's a good trivia question.  First to answer gets bragging rights and an official FIGJAM button.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt...then it's hilarious!

The last black bowler to win a title, IIRC, was George Branham III...but that was in the mid 90's

It IS next year!

I think Branham was the only one to win a major.  I think there were some others that won in the 70s and 80s.

I don't think he is the only bowler that has fun on TV?  Maybe I am wrong?
