PBA guys you like/hate watch bowl

[Amyers]

Gotta agree with that!!

I have no interest in the PBA League. I'd have more interest if it was a real league and the teams were tied directly to a brand. I think over time, with brand loyalty, you'd have more attention, more exposure to the brands, more loyalists to brands, and more enthusiasm. Or, make the team from Brooklyn have the best 5 guys with Brooklyn as their home town. Nobody is loyal enough to a brand to be loyal to a player...and they can't be loyal to a team from some random place, UNLESS they are loyal to a player. The PBA needs to just end the nightmare. Start working with the USBC and get an upper echelan league together and try to get it out on XtraFrame and Bowl.tv and maybe eventually on TV.

I don't like watching 2-handed style bowlers. I'm sure it'll be a dominant style for many years...I just don't like it.

I'm not a great fan of crankers nor non-traditional styles (WRW JR is the exception to this rule). I like to watch the pros and emulate them. I'd like to emulate the right things.

As to what I like to watch. Any WRW footage, any Earl Anthony footage, Parker Bohn III, Mika Koivuniemi....and other than that....the older the better. Old Billy Welu, Bob Strampe, Dick Ritger, Dick Weber, Mike Liomongello, Carmen Salvino, etc... I liked how passionate the older guys were are for the game yet were able to do it in a classy and exciting way.

Nailed it.

Ryan Shafer and Patrick Allen not on my list of favorites. Other than a few lefties also. I liked Earl. Duke is fun to watch.
