Title: So if WRW wins his first match?
Post by: Clueless 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?

I wouldn't say cakewalk, but since we always like to say that a single lefty has an advantage if he/she can get lined up, WRW definitely has that going for him.  I know it's been a lefty dream all week, but given the fact that he'll have time to carve out his shot, look out.

I dunno about a cake walk but if and when he's locked in (think when Norm Duke played the inside line a few weeks back in NY), it could be over...

How does this work? Are all the games bowled on one pair? The only advantage is no one is crossing his line.

Well, Walter Ray squeaked by Parker.

They're on 10 and 15 board; I think they're at the 40 and 45 feet mark downlane.

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.

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)
