Tony, I have to admire your courage regarding your post. I think it was interesting to know you have put your life on hold to promote a game for everyone to enjoy. Keep up the great work. Bigsy...

Well played Sir, well played !!!

I know and you know George, there were a hell of a lot more than just 3 there. I counted at least 6 in the top 10. Bigsy...

I saw quite a few splits that didn't deserve to be there. I am not saying that they were crap balls, nor am I saying that people that threw crap balls and got strikes didn't deserve them. I know the lanes weren't ditched. There were quite a few shots that were wide of the mark and resulted...

You belted Sam with a 266. Fancy leaving a 6-8 in the tenth with the front 9. :p I can't believe Sam bowls with earphones in. It was good bowling all weekend by everyone. The better and more consistent players finished higher. Irrespective of conditions, it is the individual who...

I saw that brooklyn strike of yours too. Not bad being the only one all weekend. Well done on your performance though. Pleasure to watch. Bigsy... My apologies for the way that split thing was written. It should have been 2 x 7-10 splits. Thanks Bluey.

In Dion's defense, he threw well all weekend, as did George and Paul. I watched Dion's 300 and every ball hit the pocket and was probably 2 boards out all game. I saw some flush pocket balls from Michael Little, resulting in 2 7-10 splits in one game. It was a pleasure to watch and...

Just got back from AO. Carry fest indeed. In saying that.........Dion Alexander's 300 this morning was pretty accurate. George even managed a 266 (front 9 then 6-8 split). Once again, very accurate bowling all competition. The guys with big hook seemed to be a bit more inaccurate...

I might even go for a look tomorrow and see how things are going. Bigsy...

Scores are up people !!!

Will AO still put up prize money of $3000.00. If so, will they short change the lower placings ? It would be a bit upsetting to think that if you make top 26, you would pretty much cover the cost of bowling, only to find out that the prizemoney has dropped.

Please feel free to discuss, as I think this is relevant to Australia also (albeit on a smaller scale) Bigsy !!! http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/01/sports/othersports/01bowling.html?pagewanted=print

Does anyone know whether or not there will be some media interest in this event? BTW George, I think you are doing a wonderful job in helping to promote a dwindling sport. To all of the critics............If you want to bowl or show up for the event as a spectator, do so. Should you...

That was my thought. Cheers. Bigsy...

Geez.........Thanks George. My post seems rather insignificant now. :tongue: On a side note, your opinion. Med to dry lanes (wooden), Average speed, Medium revs, not much tilt. Reign or Second Dimension ? Thanks. Bigsy...

Hi Guys, I came across this in the review section of Storm Reign which I am looking at purchasing (opinions welcome). I "Googled" just to be sure and this is what popped up. http://www.nowpublic.com/sports/bill-fong-bowler-misses-three-perfect-games-final-shot-2560899.html Sorry if...

Just wait until the Americans develop their own AFL League. Then they will start paying bigger dollars and taking all of the great players overseas. You only have to look at sports like basketball, baseball and NFL. Most people who are loyal to the clubs are already set up financially...

Another thing that may be worth noting is that more and more people are now using credit cards. These attract an additional surcharge of anywhere between 2.5% - 6% to the bowling alley. I dont know of any bowling centres who reward people for paying cash. Conversley, I don't know of any...

I am shattered. Also, can someone tell how the hell Ric Flair ever won a match. Even in his prime, he looked about 57 years old and was as skinny as a rake.

I am simply agreeing with GotheCell regarding people complaining about being fined when breaking the law. A little bit out there I know, and I probably should have thought it through a bit more I suppose. Sorry to all those people. It just annoys me when people cry about being caught doing...

That doesn't make sense. Bigsy...

I certainly recommend trying Danish Eserom Cheese. You should be able to pick it up from a delicatessen. Very nice and fine tasting cheese.

What's the difference between a nun and a lady in the bath? One has hope in her soul.

Greg "The Hammer" Valentine or perhaps Big John Studd. Although I was always a huge fan of Ravishing Rick Rude. Back in the days when 1 hour of wrestling consisted of 5 - 7 matches. Not like today, where you get half a match, which is then interrupted by someone charging into the ring out...

Using your logic Jason, I probably cover a marathon........................and don't even get me started on the second game !!11!one!1
