Why does the telecast..
« on: November 29, 2009, 03:21:57 AM »
Seem so boring? It seems like there is no life or enthusiasm in anything. This season I have been pretty bored watching telecast. I haven't read spoilers or anything I look foward to every season but this season I feel I can actually miss a Sunday of bowling and wouldn't search youtube or classics for it. Is it just more or what?

I'm actually shocked that DeVaney won. I never thought he would ever win again. Usually he goes on tv and really bowls horrible to medicore and he seems like he could care less if he loses. Doesn't seem to hae that same passion after his first title and after his loss to Steve Hoskins where he said the f word to the foul judge.
Even when he won for his second title he seemed "ho hum".

I think he's just learned that too many emotions just serve as a source of distraction. You have to stay on an even keel, so to speak. Look at Duke. How many times has he looked like a rock, bowling game after game. Then, once he's won, he breaks down and lets his emotions out. Hlee, he even cries. I would too, once I won $50K or $100K. He keeps them in check, because they just interfere.

Few people have the ability to channel their emotions into focus and purpose. Most of us have to put them aside until the game is over.

I have seen slugged and plugged balls on tour before. Sometimes if the ball reaction is good enough that you don't want to risk not getting it in a new but identical ball, then you just fix what you have.

Street Rod Pearls probably aren't exactly plentiful right now anyway.

Duke might pump his fist after a clutch strike or even start to let his emotions show when the match is mathematically over, but in general, during the game the man is a rock....no extraneous thoughts, no emotion, just brutal efficiency.

I have to believe one of the best reactions I ever saw was Norm after throwing that televised 300 against Walter Ray...the pure joy in that mans eyes, face and actions shows how much he still loves the game.
