At least one understood. I'm a fan of Reyes, or at least was. I do question his talent compared to where he was and where he is today. I lost faith in him in Dallas 02 and after that disaster on tv he hasn't proved me anything. Sure, he is a good qualifier, and he is a little better of a shotmaker but he is not champion material. I see all these "he's a nice guy". Yes, he is. He also has a history of a temper on the lanes as I have personally witnessed. But who cares, this was not about him being naughty or nice. I feel it's cheap for him to win a "rabbit out of the hat" event like the Final Frame and the PBA gives him an undeserved exemption. He's not under the cut line, he's a good 14 spots above the cutline. That means he was one of the WORST exempt players on tour. Even the foreign rookie Andres Gomez is along side of him. So to me there is a bowler that thanks to Reyes not making the cutline will get screwed. It's not like Tom Baker who also had a medicore season. The difference there is Baker actully won a title, and the most major of them all. Reyes has no titles, ranked 51. So Paul Flemming now has to go bowl tour trials and if that doesn't work out will have to bowl regionals and if that doesn't work out he will have to go to PTQ or is career is over because someone took the easy way out. If you don't see anything wrong with this you seriously need to wake up. I won't fault Reyes totally for this as the PBA was foolish for letting exempt tour players participate in this. That's all I'm saying on this subject.
