Since no one else will say it, I will ...
« on: January 13, 2008, 09:56:24 AM »
Congratulations, Wes Malott!

I think he executed very well, with few mistakes. Except for his 7-10 he paid very few penalties. I liked the way he went from the Strong Resurgence to the Rival, from one game to the next to keep his line, roughly, anyway.

I think Parker, Rhino and PA bowled well enough to win. Transition was nasty with very few signs that could be easily read. I saw them all make 2 - 4 changes each PLUS ball changes, few of which worked consistently.

** Did it seem to anyone else that Parker was trying to put more roll on the ball and less spin/rotation than normal?

Asking for an opinion Ric,

Do you know if parker tried a duller ball to try and tame the over/under?  Just wondering, even though with the look Wes had it seemed he was not going to be denied.

Good telecast glad to see Mallott win, but the Hambone commentary is a little goofy.  


Unlike the goofy "60 feet to success" from Dave Ryan.  I am liking "hambone" for whatever reason.  I think it's because Stone seems real and sincere where Ryan did not.

Love the Malott win.  I like the guy.

Wrongsiders have a problem with the transition..gee we never see righties with that problem.

I saw Parker try an Absolute Inferno in practice but from my angle I couldn't tell the line he was playing or if it was more angular than the Twisteds he was using.

I would think the Absolute might have forced him away from a suitable area Parker was trying or wanting to play. He knows how he played them during the week and what angle was working. I think part of his game plan was to stay outside of where PA and RP were playing and I think he had a better reaction. It's hard to beat what Wes had. He had a smoother, longer response off the pattern than the lefties, thus increasing his carry area. It was actually interesting to see a right hander have what the lone lefthander generally has.

Ric,

Any idea if Parker was using one of the "Rico" drilled Twisteds today?

Wes did have a smooth breakpoint today with both balls. He did start off with a lot of speed with the Resurgence and slowed down slightly with more of a curve with the Rival.

I had to laugh when Rhino Page said " who says lefties can't move in" his move was in, but the ball was still at or outside of 5 at the arrows

Wes Mallott is a great guy, if you ever have a chance to talk to him, he is more than willing to chat it up

It was good watching Wes have the entire right side to himself

I don't know where this came from. Wes does not seem cocky, if anything he actually seems a little quit most the time. I think people confuse his quit side for arrogance and I don't think that is what it is at all. It seems like everyone who is good at something has to have an ego. I have never seen Malott act like he deserved anything good or didn't deserve the bad. He just seems to roll with the punches and I like that.

That was funny.  I was curious where the move in was?

The "spoiler" complaint was only when the winner's name was in the title.  If this post makes the front page (top 10 most recent posts), the winner's name isn't announced.  You have to make the effort to open a post in the PBA forum.
