Is the PBA ruining itself?

I don't know if anyone has noticed the schedule for this year, but can they realistically call it a tour? Part of the appeal was the pro-am events where the masses could meet and bowl with the pros.

In regards to the sponsorship fees, they have lost 3 ball makers over the last few years with Visionary, Morich, and this year Global 900 all backing out.

I am not paying to watch bowling online via the XtraFrame.

they are probably trying to cut costs by not traveling as much, which is in turn hurting them. a deadly cycle perhaps?

Yes, they are ruining themselves. Tour? Since when does playing in one town count as a tour?

Maybe they call going from one end of the house to the
other end of the house when they have to change lanes
a tour.
