PBA Fines and all the BS
« on: October 26, 2008, 04:15:38 AM »
They fined Rash already $1,100 after 4 frames.  $100 for the first and $500 for the next 2 for having issues which is probably due to the POS lane approaches.  

I find it horribly sad that the PBA has gone this route.  To put in perspective and lets say the average PBA bowler gets $20,000 a year in earnings (those that are exempt), that is over 5% of their salary.

To put in perspective, an NBA player making $10,000,000 in total contract salary, that is a $500,000 fine.  

Call me crazy, but I'm glad I'm not in the PBA.  I'd tell them to stick that sh** up their a**!

GO SEAN!

Hey, he's a bodybuilder. If my body looked like that(I'm assuming it's a real pick), I'd be that full of myself too, haha.


Anyways,

yeah, Adam Martinez, the backup bowler "kid" Sean Rash went nuts on was 20 years old.(might be 21 now). He beat me at JOG in 06 and 07, haha. Can play the left side better than most lefties.
