So if WRW wins his first match?
« on: January 20, 2007, 07:40:14 AM »
Do you think he may have a cake walk into the finals since he is bowling all lefties? Since lefties are not use to that much traffic or do you think it doesn't matter?

mrcrankmeister,

i have not, nor will i, bowl for a living, let alone a prize of $25,000.

i have gotten excited about striking when i needed one. however, i am able to control myself and not use a vulgar and crude reaction to express it.

The guy who expresses the vulgar and crude reaction is one of the reasons why bowling is still alive today.  Can you think of any other bowler who's had more national publicity than Weber?  I'm talking about being on ESPN and other sports shows other than PBA hour on sundays.

Not just the pros. I use them all the time, particularly as lanes dry out.

that publicity is not all positive. there are many adults who have children watching who are exposed to this type of behavior. this is professional bowling. it's competitors should look and act like professionals.

Yes, like the guys in the NBA and NFL, for example.

the fact that the powers to be that run the nfl and the nba don't crack down harder on athletes is immaterial. all professional athletes need to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner-----on the field of play and off.

Just in reference to the rangefinders built in on the Brunswick Pro Anvilane surface the dark boards are on both 15 board at 34 feet (3 feet long) and both 10 board at 40 feet (3 feet long)
