The next pro event is the WSOB in Vegas starting Oct 25th and they TAPE the finals on Nov 1st, 2nd and 3rd. My guess is this is what will be telecast in December.
Sometimes you can find the events online, but I don't recall where. Maybe someone else can tell you.

I miss pro bowling when it was on free TV every Saturday at 1PM on channel 7 in our area. I remember watching it on TV in the 50s when Don Carter was bowling and Dick Weber. I think Carmen Salvino was in there also. After I got out of the Navy I watched pro bowling from the early 70s until they took it off TV. I liked when Nelson Burton Jr. was commentator with Chris Shenkle. I saw a lot of pro bowlers in that time when they were young men. How time flys.

We had a local weather man, Fred Broyski, that after the news had a show called bowling for dollars, it was people from around the Kansas city area, bowling for prizes, and money,,, it was a great show... It was on back in the 70s... lots of fun to watch,,, they would set up splits ect ect ... and if you got so many strikes in a role you got money and prizes depending on what the challenge was. Back in bowling's hay days still!!

The PBA signed on with CBS Sports Network for the summer programming, and I think they had collegiate bowling not too long ago. This looks to be the norm for the next few years according to pba.com (link (http://news.pba.com/post/2013/03/12/PBA-CBS-Sports-Network-Sign-Multi-Year-Television-Agreement3b-Debut-Set-for-GEICO-PBA-Summer-Swing-in-Milwaukee-in-June.aspx)).
Unfortunately, it's a channel all on its own and just happens to be on another tier from my other sports channels. ugh... I hate tv providers.

That's who your Sunday league is named after. Sunday Night Brosky League, named after Fred Brosky.

It didn't really leave TV. It just went over to ESPN on cable TV.

Yes!
We purchased the Google Chromecast at Best Buy for $35. It casts video from youtube to your tv! Very easy to set up, no other charges. Still waiting for live streaming combatibility, but BowlTv is pretty good about getting the stuff up to youtube pretty quickly.
