Title: Team Shootout! Who you taking?? NO SPOILERS PLEASE
Post by: strikecing on June 25, 2010, 03:37:18 PM
With Teams Ebonite, Brunswick, Storm, and 900 GLobal who you pic to win it all???
for me
900-Has a very good team but nothing that will push to a win
Brunswick- Not strength with there line-up
Storm- Great Players but Norm and Pete seem to have problems getting lined    up    in this event
and winner is

Ebonite-  With Barnes(best player on tour) Oniel and Fagan (on break out years) Couch, Scroggins, and Tommy Jones I think they have the line-up to over come all patterns and pressure!!!!

But who you taking?

1st Ebonite
2nd Storm
3rd Global

I think I have to agree here.  Although, it's almost a tie for me between Storm and 900 Global.  They both have the equipment and the players to do well but Ebonite should win it.

Depends, all of the Ebonite team be throwing Track and Columbia?

If I understand correctly, TJ and Jason will throw Ebonite, Scroggy will throw Hammer/Columbia, Fagan will throw Track, Barnes will throw Columbia, and Bill O' Neill will throw Hammer.  If that's the case, right now I'm wishing Fagan wouldn't tie himself down to just Track.  We shall see how it goes.

I think your wrong on that one, considering how much the Ebonite International was throwing the Track stuff all year to make the television (outside of Scroggy), I think if they could throw whatever they wanted considering the conditions they'd probably all be throwing Track or Columbia as usual.

You mean they threw mainly track during the week?  Either way I'm not sure they can throw whatever they want for this event.  The exception being Scroggy and possibly Fagan as they might not be signed with just one company.  The report that I read has those brand names in parenthesis next to their names so that's why I think this.

My thoughts so far...

* I really like the manufacturers tie-in. This is much more interesting to me than just basically drawing names from a hat and naming a legend as coach.

* Those Storm/Roto black, white, and gray shirts look ridiculously good. The white/black/blue ones aren''t too bad either.

* Speaking of shirts, those 900 Global/AMF barechested muscle shirts are the second-ugliest shirts I''ve ever seen. The ugliest? The 900 Global/AMF wifebeater shirts.

* Who is Chuck Gardner, and why is he sitting with the Brunswick folks?

* Tommy Jones is the least clutch bowler on these things, year-in and year-out. How can that be?

* Chris Barnes'' "ladies and legends" comment was pretty funny, though the "L&L" team is cleaning his team''s clock so far.

* Mike Jakubowski needs a better toupee. For one thing, one that matches his real hair color from front to back would be an improvement. And while we''re at it, a rug that features a hair color found in nature would be good, too.

It''s great to see bowling on TV again. I''m really looking forward to next week!

Did anyone else notice that Mike Jakubowski was reading off a tele-promter or something? And badly too. Dude has the worst speaking cadence I have seen on TV in a while. Maybe he was just nervous.

Nine in the pit with the Tenpin left standing. dooooh!!

I'm pretty sure it was him being nervous, he is very good on Xtraframe.

Chuck Gardner is the tour rep for Brunswick, former tour player and probably a sub in case of injury.

Pretty good showing by Brunswick so far with a 4-1 match record.  Good ploy to mostly throw the Avalanche Urethane to overcome the ridiculous lane conditons.


Really?  Looks like only Parker and Johnny were throwing it on Cheetah yielding three 2-10 combos and a 7 pin.  Odd because normally the leftys tear up Cheetah with "normal" equipment.  Rhino used some urethane last year, but he has quite a bit more hand than the typical lefty.  Was anyone else throwing it on the other patterns?  In hind sight, some of the heavy handed right handers could have used urethane to calm the lanes down.

The real question is did Jason Couch go on the roller coaster and toss his cookies?

Three shots (unless the first shot Rash threw during the commercial in the 4th was with an Av Urethane) total were with an Av urethane: Parker's first frame and both of Petraglia's frames. The 3-7-9 by Parker was with a C System 4.5 and the rest of the team used Revolvers.

I'll take Brunswick - they have nothing to lose - they arranged their bowler lineup so that it is a win/win no matter where they place - hence less pressure on the bowlers

I liked the idea of manufactures teams going head to head.

Still hating watching them try to bowl outside. All in all still disappointed in many of the matches. Would usually watch the line-up go through once and then delete and onto the next.
