I was very sorry for Mr. Barnes. He deserved better. He threw the ball way better then his opposition. The only thing I will say about Haughen is he did put the pressure on Mr. Barnes.
Barnes got what he deserved. This thread was about Mike not Barney!

How did he throw the ball better? Is it because he hooks the ball? He shot 25? the first match. Remember he did have a match to line up. Haugen practiced for the time allowed and the line went away. He was the tournament leader and beat Barnes already in match play. He had a problem and corrected it how is that bad bowling.
My next question is how did Chris throw a better game then. He was losing his line and never got it back. That is a better game because he couldn't adjust? Michael adjusted and put the pressure on Chris and Chris lost it. This thread is about Mr. Huagens victory.

If I may correct you on one thing, it was a 41ft pattern, not 50ft this year, as well as much lower volume than past years.
Michael's win reminds me of when a lefthander wins. They are never afforded the victory, which they earned, but reasons why the other bowler didn't. Yes Chris had a great reaction, one of the best I have seen him have in years on a show. Did he lose reaction? Maybe. Did he not execute? Probably. But the truth of the matter is that Michael made shots when he had to and Chris did not. The game is 10 frames, not 5.
Chris made an interesting comment in the paddock afterwards..."It will be interesting what I will be remembered for". Seems as if he is as concerned about his image as winning.
Congrats to Michael on a gutsy VICTORY.

Brunsric I would think a person on staff should be concerned about his image and the way he is viewed. Mike deserves a big round of applause on bowling a very smart game and making the right adjustments.

The way I interpet it is that he hopes not to be remembered as the guy who whiffed a ten pin to open the door for a 50+ pin collapse in the TOC as opposed to a guy who had a career in which he won X amount of titles and X amount of dollars. I do not think he was concerned at that moment about his image as a staffer.

I think that most of the up and comers or guys that have been around (like Mike) and haven't had a ton of success would switch with Barnes in a minute.

Your right Phil,after I re-read it it is pretty obvious that misinterupted Ric's statement. Sorry
