It would be great if Billy won.  I would love to see him start to dominate.  He has a great attitude.  He's a great role model for other bowlers...have fun!


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


I can't think of any others.  Robert Smith, Tommy Jones, Pete Weber have some sort of fun.  The majority of others either frown, cuss, or kick things like McCune.

But no one else looks like they having the time of their lives.  It was like he couldn't believe his good fortune, almost had that kid-in-a-candy-store energy.  Not just the competitive fire like Haugen had when he won two weeks ago, but really enjoying himself.

I think you are missing it though.  A lot of the time the guys (Weber for instance that you mentioned there) are on there joking around and having fun with the crowd.  

I really like Oatman because of his style (quite smooth) and his attitude on the show makes for good TV.  I have just always wondered why some people act like he is the only one to have fun on the show.  

On a side note, if you want to hear some good Oatman interviews (some of my favorite interviews they have done) check out www.gobowlingshow.com.  One interview was before he was on TV and one was after I believe.

I won't argue there.  That show he made was pretty exciting and everyone was pulling for him to win.  I am curious how he will act if he makes this show.  He has to be in some kind of zone to be constantly shooting those big scores.

Well after the round of 32, there are still five lefty's left..I am not a lefty
either, however, I think one of them if not two will be on the final four.

Awesome! I also am one of those people who love watching Billy bowl. Normally I hate watching the lefties, but his personality makes it all worth watching! GO BILLY!

This should be an interesting show methinks.  At least leading up to it.  WRW just dropped a 300 to cap off his series there.

This week is Oatman's.  Just give him the title now.  His average is like 260+ for the tournament and no one is even close.  He is bowling like the Patriots.

WRW just tossed a 300, that match is over, setting up Oatman vs. WRW in the Round of 8, should be entertaining and high scoring.  The first one to miss twice or once may lose the game.

WRW will want this one (for POY points)  and he won't let people say that he left it open (as scrambled eggs go down his dockers) because he won't let that happen again (like two weeks ago when he lost to Todd Book in the Round of 8).  Hehe, had to say it.  Either way we will see scrambled eggs go down WRW's dockers on Sunday.

That sucks they have the best 2 bowling each other in the round of 8.  They should be on TV on Sunday not bowling today.  I'd rather see Billy win.  It will do a lot of good for the increasing interest among bowlers.
