Which pro will dominate next season.
« on: May 20, 2008, 06:35:09 AM »
Which pro will dominate this next season?  

Here's my 3 scenerios:

1. This just very well maybe the year Chris Barnes get's the monkey off his back and crushes everyone!

2.  This may be the season Duke stays healthy and wins 5 or more titles!  We have all seen what he can do as a part timer! lol

3.  WRW!  Not much to say because the guy will always be in the hunt to capture titles every week until he decides to retire!  The only thing I can really say is the other guys on tour better hope WRW doesn't learn to carry the ten pin a bit better otherwise he's going to win 5+ titles in 08'.

4.  I also think a new face will grab the top 5 this next season.  Maybe our very own Jeff Carter will tear it up.  You know he's itching to get out there after missing most of last season with an injury!

I know both of these guys are a little arrogant but Rhino Page and Sean Rash and going to be some competition this next season.

I think it'll be the year of the Rhino.

I will be looking for Wes Mallott to bowl well using Roto Grip.

I love the sound of falling pins anytime of the day.

I live in Buffalo, NY and contrary to popular belief, it is not snowing.

I wish I had Chuck Norris with me last night.  He would have made sure that 9 pin went down for my first 300 game.

I didn't need Chuck Norris last night when I finally shot my first 800 series.

I'll take an underdog just for giggles and say that Mike Scroggins plays consistent enough to win the POY title. He's not flashy, but he just seemed to get the job done this year (finished 5th in points).

Second choice as a top-5 longshot would be Tony Reyes, if he's healthy.

im pulling for rhino to have a good year to show that last year was no fluke, i just cant imagine what he can do without having to qualify through TQR.

If Norm Duke can keep bowling like he did in the US Open, and if he can stay healthy, he'll be tough.

ive got to 2nd scroggy having a good year.  but ive also got to wonder what kind of a year rhino will have, not having to qualify through the PTQ's.
Heres My Forecast top 5 in points standing next year

1. Wes Malott
2. Chris Barnes
3. Scroggins
4. WRW
5. Rhino

I dont know about a top 5 finish but I'm making a LOT of changes in my physical game....if things go well, i hope to have a very solid year. It's time to adapt even more to the way the lane is telling me to play it, so we're re-vamping pretty much everything. That and a solid diet and lots of cardio to get me ready for the long season ahead. I'm down 25 lbs since my surgery and still working to get lower.

As for my sleepers for this season :
1) Mike Wolfe
2) Billy O'Neill
3) Michael Fagan

As for a dominant player....to me Barney keeps getting better and better. Eventually he's gonna figure out his "TV troubles" and we're all in trouble when that happens !!!

Jeff i am rooting for you, I am from La Salle, Illinois have family all over the state. Hope all goes well and you earn the title you deserve, you are a positive role model for kids that in the youth leagues.

Guys like you is why i think the tour needs to be kept going, I have thought about this and think an optional USBC fee to fund your prize funds would be great.

I know you do not want anything handed to you but at least to help the sport of bowling live on, 3-5 bucks a year is something we all would never even notice spent.

It's hard to leave Tommy Jones out of the mix when talking about dominance.

I've gotta cast my vote for Wes Mallott as top player.... too much talent and better equipment(Roto) pushes him to the front.

I will say Jeff, Billy O'neill and Ken Simard will all have breakout seasons next year.
