Nick, Ike and Jeff Carter (the BR guys)
Randy
Loschetter
Kretzer
Pratt
Osku
And 2 of the ladies.

Would have said Tim Mack and Belmo... but their not rolling off ide love to know why Belmo isnt rolling off this year. Being a fellow Aussy, it would be great to have a countryman out there.

good luck and high scoring

Loschetter
Dino Castillo
Rudy Revs
Bob Learn (because he's earned it)
Sean Rash
Jeff Lizzi
Osku
Dell Ballard (because he's earned it)
Jeff Carter
DJ Archer (because with a 2nd chance he'll do better)
------------------
guys who should be in but I wouldn't be upset if they weren't:

Tomek (because he cost Devaney the Bhm Open with that dumb ball recc (TA)
Pederson (because he's got such a huge chip on his shoulder)
Lonnie Waliczek (because I can't bear to watch any more meltdowns)
 
I'd never route for anyone to bowl poorly. The PBA should look at their exemption rules.

Just bowl!

I'd like to see some of the recent college bowlers qualify- Bill O'Neill, Sean Rash, Robby Spigner.  Also, the BR guys would be cool if they made it.  As far as the rest of the field, Bob Learn Jr. and Randy Pederson would be cool.

This list isn't in any particular order.
Ritchie Allen
Dave Arnold
Randy Pedersen
Sean Rash
Nick Smith
Robert Spigner
Carolyn Dorin-Ballard
Ike Brownfield
Kelly Kulick

And that's pretty much it.

Uh guys, even if Randy makes it, I'm guessing he'll still commentate.  Afterall, the only reason he doesn't do it is if he's bowling in the finals on TV.  Just like how Brian Voss filled in for him the past season when he was on.  Voss was exempt but was on there because he wasn't bowling.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

i dont like bill rowe becuase i just dont think e can cut it out there  i would rather see guys that have proven that they can play    

randy pedersen
jeff carter even though he cries alot
 
people like that i would love to see and my personal opinion is that if your are in the top 58 or 59 however they do it this year that you should make the round of 8 a couple of times and hit a tv show

If I'm not mistaken, Jon Brandon posts here on BR now and again and bowls regionals out west.

let me take a stab in the dark    bill rowe?   well if it was him great in 1984 he bowled 10 events and didnt cash    his stats dont impress me  compared to some of the other bowlers.    the sad thing is hat   alot of good bowlers didnt make the tour last year because they had a bad year the year before.  lets be honest to you think some of those guys are all aorund better bowlers than randy pedersen  just an example?    no i mean i has likes and dislikes of the new pba format but   we cant change that i think the tour should double the size of full time bowlers and   have some 8 game blocks  3 or 4   then cut and top 32 or 16 in a bracket.  there isnt as much excitment  of needed a big last game on friday night to make the cut   like it used to be and that what made it fun to watch   but all in all bill rowe i dont think is nearly as good as a lot of guys in the trials

he did really well last year how many times did he make it to tv or the round of 8?    how about rookie patrick g doing it quite a few times   i mean if you have such a great track record you would think he might get lucky once and make the tv show or round of 8
