PBA bowler you want to see have a breakout year?
« on: July 28, 2009, 07:47:12 AM »
With the PBA tour about to get underway with The WSOB,is there  any exempt or non exempt member you
want to succeed that has had no success or very limited success have a break out season?

My choice has got to be Tim Mack.I have always wondered how could do if he was healthy.

agreed - no hate here just individual opinions.

I am hoping for a youth infused year where Bill O'Neal, Rhino, Fagan, etc. start to take over the tour.  It is not that I have any issues with the veterans but I would like to see a real turn over happen this season.  In order for the PBA to flourish they need better TV ratings.  The most important demographic to advertisers is the 18-34 yr old group and that group is not going to increase if Walter Ray and Parker Bohn are the story.

jason belmonte so all those who thinks 2hands and not better than one

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Haugen, Smith, Simard, Carter, Delutz, and Jaros.  That's a pretty good variety of styles there and I like watching all of them.

-Pete weber he has had no success since hes 2007 us open win usually a major means your still going forward
-Danny Wiseman he hasn't won a title since 2004 masters same case as weber a major then you just drop dead
-Brian Voss i want to win again just cause he is BV
-Monaccelli just cause he is amletto
-Chris loschetter cause he is a great player he just hasn't had many good breaks

I'm hoping both Fagan and O'Neill get their first wins this year. Also hope Amletto wins an early event to get exempt for next year. Others that I just want to stay exempt for next year: Rhino, TJ, Robert Smith and Steve Jaros.

I would like to see O'Neill do well.. it is painful to watch him blow up on tv and live.  I have seen him live twice and the frustration you can see on tv is 100 times maginfied in person.  He looks ok at the beginning.. you can tell he isn't 100% confortable but as soon as he throws a bad shot or gets a bad leave you can see him self destruct.  He loses it and his talent can't get through all of the emotion thoughts going through his head.

Book Average 215 / 205,PBA Xperience ave180

besides like once, from what i can remember o'neill has shot good every time he's lost, hes usually going 230+ and loses. Like this year the one show, he rang a ten pin to lose by a few pins, nothing you can do about that. He is usually bowling pretty well, but carry behooves him in the clutch.

Brunswick Avalanche Solid

SPARE


He has shot big scores and lost.. but the other guys shot higher.. and I can think of a number of games where he is rolling great and then he makes a bad shot or flags an easy spare and he just isn't the same after that.
maybe it is just me but I can feel it in him. When you make a bad shot you can't be shaking your head , pounding your fist, and stomping your feet about it for 2,3 4 frames after it happens. I don't see any of the "champions" on tour doing that... and that is what Oneil does..you can see it well up in him.. and before he knows it the match is over and he has lost..
He is awesome and if he can just fight past it I think he could have a better year than Mallot had.

I'm rooting for 3 regional superstars to ascend and meet in the semis and finals of a televised PBA tourney.

Jorge300, Russell, and Robert Mushtare!

My guess for scores on shark.

Robert Mushtare vs Jorge300 = Mushtare victor 292 - Jorge300 = 118.
Robert Mushtare vs Russell = Russell victor 300 vs Mushtare 292

Yeah future stars!

REgards,
