Walter Ray got the last laugh last season against Chris. You would have figured that Chris would have learned his lesson. Chuggs did the same by taking the Chameleon. "Let your abilities do the talking," I always say.
Slighty off topic, and I'm surprised that no one has said anything about it yet, but did anyone else hear the f-bomb from Rash after he left and converted the washout? It was pretty loud, I'm surprised that it got through.

Mark, You heard it too. I thought i heard some starting with F. I was in chat forum and watching the telecast and erin said same thing. So it was a F-bomb!

I was thinking the same thing while watching the telecast, did Rash actually drop the F-bomb and it got through? Well worse things have happened and it is cable.

I heard it too and thought he dropped the F-Bomb but wasn’t quite sure.
As far as the personality of bowlers I think you have to walk a fine line between being too serious and too cocky. Personality wise my favorite bowlers are Norm Duke, WRW, and Chris Barnes. Guys like Pete Weber and Sean Rash tend to be too cocky. I think it was Tommy Jones who said one day when he was throwing a shot in a crucial moment in a match “Show em’ why you’re you”. I know it was one of those Summer team things and it was all in fun but it shows how if you are being watched how you can come across the wrong way.

Hehe, I thought I heard that F-bomb too. Now that it was mentioned, Chris Loschetter is another pro whose skills I respect but seemingly has a bad attitude. You can read some of these guys' faces and see who's focusing on the good (Machuga, etc.) and making improvements, and who's focusing on the negative (Loschetter).

His father is the center manager at the base I was previously assigned at (very nice man, actually). I doubt he'd be too proud if in fact he heard that. I understand getting frustrated and venting it to reset your mind, but you've got to know your audience.

My parents ended up recording and watching the replay of the tournament that they show on ESPN Classic the Mondays after the live telecasts. They didn't even edit it out when the replayed it on Monday afternoon! I was quite surprised about that, they had more than enough time to take care of it.

The "cable" channels can get away with a little more than broadcast TV, that's why they probably didn't think of editing it out. Either that or they don't realize he said that.

Its hard to beleive that it didnt get edited out. If the bowling industry as a whole is to grow and bring in newcomers (especially kids) those comments are not helping. The pro's get fines for time infractions, should be a fine for foul language.
