Kelli Kulick
Liz Johnson
And.. C D B!!!!!!!!
I would love to see CDB competing on tour this year. Considering how often we saw the guys playing the down & in shot this year, I think they would really have a chance.
-
I sure hope Mike Mineman (one of my two drillers) and Nick make it. Would love to see Ike out there to.
Others would be:
Randy Pedersen
Liz Johnson
Rudy Revs
Osku

-I will forever love this great game, I love the people and the competition, I only wish the best would get the recognition of an ATHLETE that they deserve.
-
Rudy Revs, Randy Pedersen, Nick, Osku, Bob Learn, Liz Johnson, Carolyn Dorin-Ballard. I think it'd be great to have some ladies on the tour.

Bill O'Neill has his spot wrapped up. Mark my words.
I'm also rooting for Dino Castillo, Chris Blackmore, Kelly Kulick, and Jim Tomek Jr

Respect the Game

Speaking of Jim Tomek, I saw him throwing and he has someone with him with a morich shirt on. Does anyone know or have a pic of what Mo looks like cause this guy strikes me as either a rep from morich or mo himself anyone know?
--------------------
Ike Brownfield
-
This is in no particular order:
Chris Loschetter
Kelly Kulick
Bob Learn Jr.
Jim Pratt
Liz Johnson
Osku Palermaa
Carolyn Dorin-Ballard
Christopher Blackmore (got to give one to a hometown guy!!!)
Nick Smith
and last but not least: Randy Pedersen
--------------------

Well, I don't know who will make it but here's who I'm rooting for:
Jeff Carter, Nick and Ike, the BR representatives
Osku Palermaa
Chris Loschetter (or as Dave Ryan pronounced it, "low sh!tter" 
)
Bob Learn
Kelly Kulick
Rudy revs
Eh, and I guess Randy Pedersen so he doesn't look so depressed next season...
--------------------
- Andy
Brunswick...........'nuff said.
-
i like bill oneil-he has game,put up a very good resume in college. plus he is an alumni from my old college
-
Loschetter-his world championship showing was no joke
Bill O'Neill- 3 time collegiate player of the year, won first regional entered.
Elliot Ten- good friend of mine, made a good showing last year and throwing it great all year
Spigner- fiery competitor who knows alot and is confident in his game
All great young guys who will make an impact at some time or another on tour
--------------------
University of Central Florida + Brunswick = Collegiate Domination
-
Kelly Kulick. Great competitor, GREAT person...
I'd love it if she made it.
She climbed up to 11th at the end of today...
That'd be cool...
GO KELLY!!!

quote:
Randy Pederson (that way he can't announce)
If that's the criteria, I'm voting for Dave Ryan.
SH
-
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
matt
-
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!
-
rudy revs
john may (lincolnton represent!!)
person i do NOT want to see make it: osku palermaa
-
Sean Rash
Jim Pratt
Nick Smith
-
Robby Spigner!
--------------------
RW (THB)
-
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.

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

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

Wow, Dino from my neck of the woods has opened 104 pin lead after eight games today..
I knew he was good, but had no idea he would do this well in the trials.. He only got his PBA card 2 weeks ago!!
--------------------
If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

in both sides of bill rowe, i note him to be indeed an acomplished international bowler. but, on tour it is a different situation. yes sweetfeet is right in saying he is(or was) a great international player. but wear and tear on the road combined with diet and not being able to re-coup makes it difficult. example danyck briere did the samething. he went out did about half a season and came back in bad shape and in his general health was poor, because he can't live out of a suit case.
does rowe belong on tour? well he can grind with the best of them at international events, can he do it for 6 months? that's a different story and only he can truly answer that.
players that will come out on top will and always do that. i personally don't think randy pederson does, because he's just like patrick girard, or bill rowe, there own fate rests in there own hands and sometimes in combination with the luck of a draw they face someone they can out play.
if you get someone that can hit the same spot 99 out of 100 times, but can't carry and you have another individual that can create there own area on the lane and a swish zone at the pins to increase carry percentage, then who would you pick?
now your comparing walter ray vs robert smith
this post is about picking who you see coming out of trials, not who we dislike.
my picks from this field, #1 dino castillo. an international star in his own right.#2 Chris loschetter speaking with mark buffa he is one of the best college players in recent history.#3bill o'neill, i've read on this board and in the pba boards that he is a very dominate player on the eastern seaboard.
#4 sean rash, probably one of best college players again in recent history.#5 is a tie. dave arnold, his style will put you to sleep most definately but, he's will always be there. Jon Brandon/aka big bad bully. he is also another player i would bank money on.
