It's been a LONG while since WRW has missed a single pin. Didn't he have some huge streak going?

No way man.  WRW missing a 10 pin (99%+ single spare conversion in history) is like Michael Jordan missing a dunk (I think he missed 1 or 2 his whole career with one being for the Wizards.  

When WRW misses a 10 pin on TV, you really can see the PBA isn't hot right now.

So your saying that no one can ever miss if they make TV???

Discuss!


For WRW, that is correct.  He should never miss a 10-pin on TV.  Check his % on TV, I bet it is like 99.5% lifetime in his 160+ TV appearances.

I think i've seen someone post about it before but the corner of the lane was raised and made the ball steer left!!! lol

Just kidding but just goes to show hes just as human as anyone of us but he was not as accurate as he usually is. I wonder if that had anything to do with that wrist brace?

Because WRW has had years when he didn't miss a single pin spare?

2008 is just a freakin weird year for the PBA so far.
The only possible scientific explanation for what's unfolded so far this year is:

I think WRW had one year were in the entire year, all those games they bowl in the many different tournaments, he missed like 4 single pin spares, qualifying rounds and stuff included. 4 Single Pin spares in an entire year. Thats absolutely amazing. And yes, he probably is like a 99.5% lifetime single pin spares on TV, but he can't be perfect all the time lmao.
