This guy is only exempt due to winning a "pull a rabbit out of a hat" event. That's the closest you'll ever get to winning a real title. All those guys that were under the cut and above you are better bowlers. That includes most of all Paul Flemming, who may not have a title either but is 2 times the bowler you are. I wish nothing but bad luck for you next season. I'm pissed Flemming isn't exempt due to a flawed system and the fact Reyes won that stupid event I'm ripping you cause you one of the worst on tour. I'm suprised your even 48th.

I am not a fan of his by any means but your post is completely uncalled for.
And my post has nothing to do with Paul Fleming I have met and bowled with him and wanted him to make the cut over others but I am mature enough to not mention names.
A proper post would have been to mention that you wished Paul would have made the cut without talking down about someone else.
Tony's info from PBA.com
quote:
2004-05: After a quiet first half of the season, used an impressive run in the second half to earn an exemption via the 2004-05 PBA World Point Rankings…earned a career-high $83,750...made match play in 16 of his 19 events…swept four matches during the season, tied for fourth-best on Tour…was not swept in a match all season…two of his three television appearances came on the Viper (A) pattern…his highest finish of the first half was 14th in the 2004 PBA Uniroyal Tire Classic, the third event of the season…enjoyed one of the finest five-week stretches on Tour, finishing 6th or better in five consecutive events in the second half…made three television appearances in that stretch, nearly tying his career-high of four shows in a season, which he did in 2001-02…during the five weeks, he moved from 47th in the 2004-05 PBA World Point Rankings to 10th…started the stretch by finishing 4th in the 2005 PBA Atlanta Classic in Norcross, Ga., falling to Norm Duke, 222-182, in the semifinals; it marked his first television appearance since the 2002 PBA Dallas Open, a span of three years and three days…after finishing 6th in the 2005 PBA Jackson Hewitt Tax Service Open and 7th in the 62nd U.S. Open presented by Odor-Eaters, he made back-to-back television appearances for the second time in his career…finished 2nd in the 2005 PBA Cambridge Credit Classic, losing to Tommy Jones, 266-217, in the title match for his second career 2nd place finish…the next week he finished 3rd in the 2005 PBA Baby Ruth Real Deal Classic, losing to Mika Koivuniemi, 194-154, in the semifinals…prior to his five-week stretch, Reyes had finished in the top-15 just once in the first 12 events; went 3-9 in match play and had a 30-41 match games record in those 12 events, but went 12-3 with a 46-23 match game record during his five-week run…came back from an 0-3 deficit in his round of 32 match in the 2005 PBA Jackson Hewitt Tax Service Open to defeat Jason Hurd, 4-3.

He was fortunate that he gained his exemption (fairly) in a bowling experience allouted by the PBA. His father passed away, unexpectedly due to some accident. And with the exemption under his belt he allowed himself the time with his family we all hope we have when times come upon us.
I'm sorry if your favorite hasn't made it....yet. But bashing someone else that has, doesn't show a good side of you. If your player hasn't made it, then he needs to step up and do better. There's still time. Tony made his exemption the prior year on sheer points, not titles. So if he can do it, then I guess your favorite can too......right? I mean if Paul Flemmkng was twice the bowler (like you said) then he'd be in already due to sheer points. If not then hopefully he'll still make it and be around next year.

Same number of shows as Fleming made if my research is correct..
Brian obviously couldn't get enough action at the PBA boards so he decided to come over here and start a fire as well.. You might also want to keep in mind the fact that Reyes bowled in two fewer events than Fleming did.. Had Reyes bowled in those events, things may look much different than they do now..

Anyway, I do not get too excited about these rantings anymore. It seems Brian needs to get excited about something, so he feels he needs to pick a target. Does it make sense that he pick on very nice man, who is one hell of bowler over another guy who likewise is nice and a better bowler than most, if not all, of us will be? In a word, no. He chose to do it in a very unprofessional way and make a spectacle of himself. I am glad we have the "Ignore user" option for just such an occasion. I feel for Paul Flemming very much too, I was 5 feet from him when he kicked a trash can as he walked off after losing in the round of 32, and I know he felt bad. But I still fail to understand Brians mentality.

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.
I am not a big Tony Reyes fan but he did nothing wrong. The PBA leaders decided to give away an exempt spot and Tony took advantage of it. If Tony did not win the spot somebody else that bowled that event would have. The thing that goes unmentioned here is the fact that the number for the exempt field is too low. The exempt idea is great but the number of exemptions totally suck. I do like the idea of regional point leaders getting exemptions. There is one down side to the exemption on the tour. One bad season and your out. Oil patterns dictate who qualifies and who don't. And yes, certain styles were shut out this year. I do think they need to go back to the old format. Just my opinion.

What should be done is making the line where they set it on 03-04, to 50 players. Some brilliant people at the PBA though the next year came up with some braindead idea that regional bowlers should get points and the top bowler in each region should get a spot. Bad idea! Look how well that has panned out this year. Let's see: Nathan Bohr, Randy Weiss, Ray Edwards, Blaise Bedolla, Ben Laughlin and to an extent Dale Traber have been horrible. Just because you are a good bowler in your region, which does mean something but does not mean other bowlers can't perform on tour. They need to ditch all of that and if regional bowlers are interested in joining the tour you go up to Tour Trials like everyone else or bowl PTQ. 50 spots for the next season exempt tour, 10 spots for tour trials and 4 spots for PTQ.

Reyes has a simple game built on consistency and repeatablity. He has proven that he belongs out there and will be out there for a long time!
Yeah, the poor hack is fourth right now, after the first 7 games. Guess he'd better turn in his card.
