Wow Another Boring Sunday Telecast Lined Up
« on: November 07, 2008, 12:53:42 PM »
I just ordered Xtra Frames today so I can watch bowlers I want who don't happen to show up on Sunday telecasts.  I could care less about scores.  I can find any local doofus put up high scores in any local tournament.  I want freak-like skill.

So Xtra Frames is good and all until it blacks out on you.  I much prefer watching them bowl in the rounds before the Sunday show.  They bowl like I bowl - roll, strike, switch lanes, roll again.

With TJ losing the 7th game, we got:

-Mike Scroggins-who reminds me of every left hand bowler I have ever seen in my life
-Bill O'Neill-who I never heard of
-Anthony LaCaze-who I never heard of
-WRW-zzz...zzz....zzz....

Well I guess my only complaint is Scroggins.  I have always complained about having new guys on the show and there are 2 this week.  But I really want to see Robert Smith or Tommy Jones make it to the show.

I've known Tony LaCaze, and his dad Marty...for a lot of years.

Tony has a nice game.

Good to see someone you've seen bowl since his teens, make the show.

Good Luck Tony!

Read his other thread.  He said the only people he wants to see on the show is TJ, Rash, Robert Smith, and PDW.  Everyone else can suck it.

I guess he only likes guys that can put a lot of revs on the ball?  If that's the case then he should like this Sunday's show.  O'neill has plenty of revs as does LaCaze.

To each his own I guess.  I feel this show is going to be fun to watch.

I personally can't wait for this show. From what I've been told, Billy and LaCaze are the best of friends, so it will be cool to watch them duke it out in the semis. I also hear that LaCaze is an absolute riot, so this could be a non-stop comedy show if Anthony bowls well and advances to the title match. I hate WRW, but you gotta respect what the man's accomplished, and as for Scroggins, I just look forward to watching him whiff a couple 7 pins.

I am just glad Barnes is not on the show.  He is sooooo boring to watch.

Im OK with everybody but Scroggins. Hes lefthanded, ugly, terrible(but lefthanded), boring, and did I mention hes a lefty?

O'niell is solid, WRW...whatever he is what he is, Lacaze from what I hear throws it good but dresses like a slob. So we'll see if he can get his act together on the show. I'll be pulling for either Lacaze or O'niell!

Hey Necromancer, clarify one thing for me, ok?

Did you buy Xtra Frames or did your parents buy it for you to shut you up?

Personally, I think he bought it because they show cartoons in between rounds.

Yes, I can just hear little Necro watching Xtra Frames now...

Personally, I bowl with Billy O'neill in leagues. Dude, he's nicknamed the "Real Deal" for a reason, he's a beast. Billy is one of the most approachable people I have ever bowled with. He is a great guy. I can see he and WRW in the final.  Believe me if Billy gets on he's unbeatable. This is coming from a huge WRW fan and a guy that has been taking to school by him tons of times. Good Luck Billy!!!!

Why are so many 12 year olds allowed to post on this web site?
Have they been neutered yet?

Necro, you need to get a grip.

What is so wrong with the contestants on the upcoming telecast?  

Watching WRW, whether you like him or not, is history in the making.

Scroggins, to you and to those that disparage his spare shooting (he's gotta be a pretty decent spare shooter, for if he wasn't he wouldn't have averaged 256.8 in one season in league), is one of the top 5 bowlers in the world, so he's gonna be making lots of shows and winning some too.

Then you have Bill O'Neil, and you being such a know-it-all have never heard of him.

And to top it off there's a newcomer, Anthony LaCaze who happens to have ton of game and is great friends with O'Neil (O'Neil was his best man).

Like others have stated, there is much to look forward to on this show: a couple of proven veterans and a couple of young guns.

Should be interesting to see who'll prevail.

Your posts are always antagonistic and denigrating.  

Why is that???  

Are you that unhappy with yourself???

What you say kind of makes sense, since adjustments are typically made in 1/16ths.

Clearly understood.  

However, to some, measuring this way might make it easier to read differences in measurements--not everyone is that comfortable with numbers.

necromancer, mike scroggins reminds you of every other lefthander you've seen ? evidently you've never seen jason couch bowl, have you ?

you've never heard of bill o'neill ? a great collegian and he's bowled for a pba title. a great younger player.

i can see where you may not have heard of anthony lacaze.

walter ray puts you to sleep ? when you watch him you are watching history----the best to ever play the game. you wouldn't say that about tiger woods would you ?
