Ball wars!
« on: December 23, 2014, 10:10:18 AM »
Lots of rumors going around about the bowling business, so let's start a thread just based off of speculation.

Known fact. Brunswick and co is up for sale. More than likely will be snatched up by another large company. Who would benefit from acquiring Brunswick, DV8 and Radical, and who would suffer because of it?

Rumor. Big PBA name signed to 900 Global. Which means 900 Global would have to be PBA approved again. Which means someone is jumping ship from their current contract. Some say Barnes, some say Belmonte, some say nothing. If Barnes leaves Columbia 300, does that really put another nail in EBI's coffin? What is he going to do with his blue pants?

Is the whole game going to come down to Kentucky vs Utah with a sprinkle of Michigan on the side?

Market share of a shrinking market not quite business 101....

I'm only quoting a point someone else made on the same subject....but I don't think they are a business major.

BallReviews poster generally does not translate to business major (:

Im in deductive reasoning and gathering information but like anyone else on the internet I know everything and have done anything anyone else has done only better lol.


I can't wait to see where it goes. I'm a huge Brunswick guy and find it very interesting.......im also a nerd like that.

Probably spell your name with a K as well. The truth is out there.

It does make sense why Brunswick still hasn't posted their 2015 proshop promotions offer. They said it would be any day now......two weeks ago lol.

2015 Rewards Plus just was released today, ask your Product Specialist for the new form.

As for the speculation on who will be buying Brunswick, the answer will be soon. It's down to just a select few finalists.

The rewards program is a no brainer for my shop (even being a smaller revenue place)  it has easily paid for itself a couple times over this year. Looking forward to another great BIG B/DV8/RADICAL year!!

It is just me, or is there irony in the fact that a company that isn't doing well enough to sustain itself and has to sell, is giving away free money?!?


Awesome.
