Nothing satisfies like a Snickers
Bowling Champ Bill O’ Neil
Thats the most unbelievable messenger in PBA history
More like carrier pigeon.
Football is a contrived game with tons of hard to measure rules leading to subjective calls. Bowling is an honest game with a few simple easy to measure rules leading to exactness. This strike by Mr. O’Neill is a good example of that.
I have been watching every PBA match since 1979 and I believe the greatest moment I have witnessed in PBA history was when over 20 years ago the announcer, possibly Dave Lamont or Mike Jabukowski, said I think Parker Bohn might have fouled! Marshall Holman responded saying that is a serious accusation. After return from commercial, the video was shown, Mr. Bohn did foul, his spare was turned into an open, causing him to lose. The announcer became part of the match.
Bowling is a game where the bowler with the highest correctly measured score must win. We don’t have some meeting after the fact to discuss how we can prevent an incorrect outcome. The integrity of our sport is always at stake and mistakes or bad calls won’t be tolerated, they will be corrected real-time!
After the correction, announcer Marshall Holman said he could imagine how a younger Marshall Holman would have responded to that situation (obviously McEnroe style). Of course, Mr. Bohn took it like a man. Sorry about the length.
Respect the effort to post that and I to agree bowling is a sport of exactness
So you’re saying that with bowling, there’s no judgement or opinions when it comes to rules or fouls?
Because with sports like football, soccer or basketball, the fouls are based of opinion and a 100% correct call is impossible to make every time
@Wyatt W Fouling is an interesting issue. I started bowling in leagues in 1979 and back then the foul lights were always on, so fouls were automatically detected. But a foul light that gives false positives is an extreme problem, the bowling equivalent of an incompetent football referee. So while all houses have automated scoring, most don’t want to deal with foul detection and leave it off. So in my leagues if a bowler obviously fouls we change the score to F. But if a bowler fouls by a fraction of an inch then nobody notices, including the bowler. There really is no advantage to going past the foul line, but we must continue to enforce fouling for tradition.
All 10 pins are “messengers” to Rob stone 🙄
But not at the same time 🙄
I have never seen a messenger hit with such NON force and take out a pin that hard. Like wtf. It barely brushed against it
physics my dude. it rolled into the gutter which generated enough force to just barely knock it out
Meanwhile I’ve had pins about hit a 45 degree angle and still be upright in the end. I swear physics doesn’t actually work in this game.
Physics?
Never heard of it I just thought glue was on every pin I didn’t knock down
That’s my excuse anyway
@Chris Peacock That’s the type of Strike you will never get on those Garbage String Pinsetters
I misinterpreted the title. I thought that pro bowling had had a labor dispute that I hadn’t heard about!
They want their paid lunches, and by God, they will get them!
Rounded bottoms on those pins?🤣🤣
Billy o still doing it man
The real deal! 😂❌
Delayed pin action
I was looking at the wrong pin.
Kai Virtanen got a 300 like that
They really had to review the tapes in bowling lol
On my league night we’d say tanya harding ftw lol
Freaky cool!
Damn, I wish the alleys where I bowl had slow racks like that.
