Maybe we should have a friendly competition to see which one of us predicts the most bowlers who end up winning exemptions. Pick 8 bowlers before the start of competition ... whoever gets the most of their 8 picks right becomes the "BR Crystal Ball Master"

IMHO, anyone who can finish in the top 20 on four out of the five days, will finish in the top 8 overall. A lot of these guys will have a great day when they hit their favorite pattern, but will be near the bottom on their least-favorite patterns.
Whaddya think? Is that too easy?

Please no Dave Traber.
You may not like his appearance or his style, but anyone who can throw three flush strikes in the 10th frame of a title game on television, to tie Norm Duke, deserves to bowl on tour.
Go get 'em, Trabes!

Actually, it's just "snowball's chance". Came from Jefferson, and was originally "a snowball's chance in the hot streets of Philadelpihia in summer", but they shortened it.
You pick these things up when you live somewhat close to a city.

A little bias because i'm from Florida. Hoskins and Pedersen make it because of their years of experience. Loschetter and Russell proved they had what it takes last year with Ronnie just missing the cut and Chris bowling great in only half a season. Mack and Allen are just too talented and Ten is a personal friend of mine who has unbelievable game and will prove it when he gets the chance.

ak57, I've searched everywhere online for a reference to Jefferson, snowball's chance, and Philadelphia, without success. I'll take your word for it, but could you give me a reference to the original quote?
