is that the bite on the show?
« on: December 16, 2007, 03:15:06 AM »
I thought Oatman was throwing the widow but I noticed some white/silver streak in it.

As for the Green ball Oatman was throwing, I guarantee it was a Vicious Particle Solid as well.. I actually saw the Vicious logo on the ball..

Stand left, throw it right, and strap it like a trojan!!


LMAO. After it's posted and proven that it's the BBP. Maybe you should read the posts in the threads you post in.

It was a Big Blue Pearl BLEM that Billy was throwing.  There is a lot of yellow and very little blue.  I suppose it does get a bit of a green tint at some points.  He bowls the Central region in the summer and he started bring that with him last July/August.

That's too funny!  I tend to think it rolled like a ball that didn't match up with the pattern.  It's a blem because of the colors.

I was at the telecast so I did get to see what was being thrown but I'm with a lot of you...No way i would have said BBP.  I thought it possible but in person...that ball was green and yellow.  No way did it look even slightly blue.  PA used a Bash a good bit in practice and Rhino used an Agent up until the final practice before his match.  Havent seen the actual telecast but man that place was small.  Hoping it looked larger on tv but it was TINY!!!

LMAO at this entire thread and ball on the show arguements with completely wrong observations for 20 weeks a year.  Nothing more entertaining online Monday morning than that.

I thought the BBP was a solid blue color... since when did they come with yellow swirls? Or is it because it wasa "blem." There is NO WAY from watching at home that I would have guessed Oatman was using a BBP.

explains why it looked like a Vicious Particle to me. if that's the case, then it rolled like a blem too. nothing like any BBP i've ever seen.

There are 39 boards on a lane, crossing 38 of them doesn't make you good....it makes you a moron.

What does "roll like a blem" mean?  On the right lane, he had an excellent look.  He wasted enough brain power trying to figure out the left that it probably affected the way he threw it after a while.
