Wow, Mumzie! I really thought I was the only one who felt this way about Collins. We watched him at the tour stop in Phoenix in January, and he was really struggling. I felt pretty bad for him at first. Then he threw an awesome shot that struck and I applauded, as did several others. He looked toward us in the gallery and said in a very loud voice, "Dont (nasty expletive) clap for one (nastier expletive) strike." He followed that with "Idiots." Then he proceeded to kick his bag, slam his body into a seat and pound his fist against his head. Needless to say, we were pretty stunned, and no one applauded again the rest of his game.
For the record, he wasn't the only one struggling on that pair. But he was the only one who erupted into temper tantrums worthy of a two-year-old. Heck, it was so bad that his brother threw up his hands and deserted him to go to the other end of the house to watch a friend bowl.
