I'm not taking away from the fact that he is a good bowler. Just like Weber. They're fantastic bowlers... they're just a-holes.Originally Posted by The Mayor
Dave, that is amazing!! hahahahaha!
As for Shafer, he really is one of the best bowlers in the world. There's a reason he is ALWAYS in contention at majors. But, he does have issues on TV and not everyone can be a showman. He doesn't have a flashy style and it doesn't look like he does a whole lot to the ball. But when he shot 300 on TV, it was one of my most memorable moments from the PBA.

I ran into Weber about 15 - 17 years ago when they had the Johnny Petraglia Open finals at the Rutgers Athletic Center. He was walking around the back of the stands just getting ready for the telecast. I thought he was a bit of a wise guy, but basically pretty friendly.

To be honest, Weber and Shafer are two of the nicest people I've met from the tour, especially Shafer. They just have a different side of them on the lanes.

I've always been decent at getting a read off of people. Shafer seems like the type that really internalizes stuff and I might almost say takes things personally. Weber, on the other hand, is basically the opposite: heart on his sleeve, leave it all on the lanes, etc.
As it turns out in either case you're dealing with people who are very emotional, and most people who are emotional can be REALLY infuriating if you're not on the right side of things.
But that's just my read, and it's not like I'm a personal friend or something.
LOL...great work!Just finished up on this one. I know his head is a bit too big... But it's as close as I could get...
I just got a score back on a test that I thought I failed for sure. My expression was essentially like "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE I AM"
anyone see his interview on ESPN last night? rather entertaining. He admitted that we was so caught up, he messed up everything he was trying to say.
