Brunswick guys bashing the same company?
« on: March 07, 2008, 02:36:50 AM »
I have not been on the Brunswick forum in some time.  I have not been on the Lane 1 forum until just recently.  I noticed a lot of bashing of the Lane 1 brand by the Brunswick guys.  I thought Brunswick made Lane 1 covers?  Isn't that like bashing the same company?

Ric,

Doesn't matter who it is anymore. I am done.

We all know what we beleive and have hard data on. Plus, the success we have all had either individually, with high profile players and with customers. I say let's just let the sales of Brunswick produced products and Ebonite produced products speak for themselves.

It would seem strange to me that the 2 companies with the highest budget for Research & Development, and have spent countless hours testing this, would be wrong.

Have a great day!!!

Hey Sixcranker I only think Mike Austin is half sexy, but I am legally blind in one eye so i could be missing something. Hey Mike Charles shot 805 with the Black Diamond you so loved to drill. We also go a SD73 hope it does't need a weight hole with our revs I think we could get it to flare over it LOL.

Sorry Truth you don't have much room to talk buddy. I have seen you bash a lot around here. I honostly think that both sides are to blame. The real question is who will be bigger and walk away? Then the next question is will the other person see that it is over for now and leave it alone or will they open another thread to start everything all over again?

I am glad SOMEONE is listening to me. Everyone else just wants to discuss Brunswick and Lane 1.....when will they learn that Mike Austin is the face of bowling?!

Would guys STHU!!  You are killing me!  I'm not the least bit sexy to anyone on this planet, ask my wife!!

BTW, for those that don't know, I know Sixkiller.  He does not have a man crush, he just likes pulling my chain.  He is much bigger than me, so I have to just go with it.  I just hope none of the guys at the prison where he works are able to read this stuff.

Truth since she has gotten a "new" ball I have got I think 4 new ones. So since I am getting a new Blast Zone and had the chance to get a Red and Vapor Zone as well as a Radical Inferno I thought I should be nice and give her two of them.

Mikey does own pugs and it's an insult to the pugs to say they look like their owner. Hey there is nothing wrong with a mancrush. You can have a crush on a woman that takes your money at home why not a man who keeps taking your money on the lanes.

Two minor comments:  He is right, the Pugs are better looking.  Remington even calls himself "Big Handsome".  And, I don't take anyone's money on the lanes, nobody likes to gamble in OK.  No sidebets, brackets, hi game pots, nothing.  19 teams too.  I guess third comment.  I wouldn't bowl my buddy Six.  If/when I beat him, he might stop fixing my computer, no way I can risk that!

Boulevard is the first center I have been to that doesn't run brackets or anything.


Six, there is a reason for that.....It cost so much to bowl there that after most people pay for their bowling, they have no money left to gamble or bet in side pots.

You may be right on that, but isn't the Wed night league the most expensive at Blvd?

I know practice is more than double at Blvd. from what it cost me at Heritage. I practiced 2 games after Anne Marie installed a custon slug in my Twisted Fury Friday afternoon, to see how it worked and it cost me $1.28 a game more at Blvd. than it would have cost at Heritage plus Heritage has better lanes and doesn't damage balls nearly as bad as Blvd.

Never really had to pay for practice at Blvd.


You were getting free practice????

Up until this year when I quit bowling there because of the way Ronnie was running the place, I have bowled there every year since approx 1978-1979 and have had to pay for every game I ever bowled in that place.
