    Default Bowling ball names make misleading post titles

    I don't know how many times I've seen a post thinking "Oooh this should be an interesting post" only to find out it was a bowling ball name and review. DOH! For example, Names like "Cruel Intentions", "Riot", "Curse", "Fierce Phobia", "Cyclone", "Rhino" or "900 Global" and so on. Oh wait, not the last one.

    I'd rather see a post about... A bowlers "Fierce Phobia" that he was given a "Curse" due to someone's "Cruel Intentions" with a voodoo doll.
    Or maybe how... A "Riot" broke out because a "Rhino" ran through a bowling center in Africa trying to escape from a "Cyclone".
    Now those would be interesting posts to read wouldn't they? Not just another "This ball is the best because blah blah blah" Then again, maybe I just need a med change?

    Arsenal consists of mainly 15# Motiv balls, I have several now and they are the bomb! Too many to list and carry. Still have a couple Hammer balls and my AMF RPM Swirl (old reliable) & 25+yr old Linds worth a mention
    Currently 535+ Rev Rate @ 19 MPH (This probably needs to be updated, I think I've toned each down a click or two these days. I'm letting the ball do more of the work as I get older.)

    I like the idea of starting a "Mad Libs" post and can only use Bowling Ball names to fill in the blanks.
