    4) RotoGrip

    And MOTIV STILL has no championship in the WSOB!!!

    Also, I put a asterisk next to Rotogrip's 1st place since really DJ was throwing a Storm ball…so that one is more like a Storm win than a Rotogrip win. And I kinda don't "like" that they do that from a marketing standpoint…because what does it say about RotoGrip's line-up if their sponsored bowlers can't find 3 Rotogrip balls worth throwing? If Storm is better….then why have RotoGrip? But I digress...

    Maybe Motive will win after they realize, if you're going to practice, you don't turn on lanes 44 & 45 like they did in their commercial.

    When they have conditions where back end movement is rewarded more than a lack of accuracy is punished, you'll see high revs dominate.

    Different brands,still the same company. Not really any different with Brunswick. I bowl against a guy who is sponsered by DV8, and there are nights he throws a Brunswick ball. I don't think the parent company cares to much.

    I do agree, that they should be able to find something in their own line of balls. But who knows, maybe they don't like some of the cover stocks or maybe there are enough difference between brands to keep everything unique.

    Maybe it's a 45 lane center where they skipped lane 13 because it's unlucky??

    Mike ... they're from Michigan. You honestly can't picture Mudpuppy doing that?? Come on.

    And we're on to the PBA Scorpion Championship!!

    Not sure who to cheer for. Was kinda cheering for Hess since he's a Radical/Brunswick guy. But he's out so I guess I'll watch the finals neutral. Will be interested to see if Haugen can finally get Motiv a championship.

    If these things are taped why are they skipping a couple frames? makes no sense...

    Interesting show for anyone who thinks that straight players can't play inside lines. Between Haugen and Larsen, you can't get a whole lot straigher than that.

    If they didn't cut out a couple of frames, they wouldn't have time to show some amateur bowling against some pro that they didn't get to choose, for a ball that they get anyway, and a jersey that, from the look of things, they really don't want. Some things are important! LOL

    That is....if you're impressed by a guy winning 213-206 and looking horrible in the process. NOT the best of the animal pattern finals.

    Also...can we stop the crying? I mean...Pepe cried like a 6-year old who watched his puppy get run over by a car...then Haugen brings his mail order bride up and asks her to marry him or something and she's blathering on like mad.

    Unless you get your finger pinched on the ball rack or drop a ball on your foot...there's really no need for crying in bowling.
