4 broadcast TV events and 25 on FS1 is definitely a step up from today IMO

Only downfall to Fox is they like to cancel shows at the drop of a hat. Well except for The Simpsons and Hell's Kitchen. I avoid watching anything new on there in fears I will like it and then poof it's gone. It's happened at least 4 times to me over the years. Hopefully PBA just found a new permanent home. Maybe Homer and Chef Ramsay could drop in as guest announcers?

Haven't watched in a long time but isn't Homer a bowler?

I think he bowls on the same league as Fred Flintstone

Yes, he was on "The Pinpal's", no relation to the app

I haven't watched it except on youtube recently for many years. The guys on there I don't remember there names made me miss good ol Chris Schenkel and Nelson Burton Jr. for sure.

I'm really interested in this. The prime-time multi week stuff could be interesting, too. Done right, it could inject some life into the sport again.

Part of me is a bit disappointed this wasn't happening back in Fox's days of experimenting with glowing hockey pucks, FoxTraxx, and all that. Even still, I wonder if we might be able to get some technology changes to the broadcast that make the lane conditions more accessible, without blue oil?
