RIP Joe

Remember seeing posts from him quite often when I first got into browsing this forum.

Not a lot of legacy members left due to attrition and moving to other platforms  :-\

Sad to see this as well. Such a kind soul. I guess even the Energizer bunny can't go forever.

RIP Joe, he joined at about the same time myself.

We used to have a lot of fun conversations with the posts set up by Sawbones and his son Hose.
They were great times.

Im sure Joe will be rolling a few frames with the old crew who are no longer with us.
Happy go lucky bowler from the UK.
Specs. 430rpm,18mph off hand. 11-12deg Tilt, 50-60 deg Rotation. PAP 5 1/4 by 3/4 up.

RIP Joe.

As I remember he was a fountain of information on this site. He will be truly missed.

Yup! We used to have big fun on here back in the day whether it was talking about real bowling or talking trash about politics and other stuff. I can remember literally spending an hour or two on here just chattering back and forth with the colorful members of the Ball Review crew.

I still have no idea who sent me a brand new Roto Grip Theory. It was one of the newest balls put out by RG at the time. I was fairly new to this site, and one day this ball just pops up on my doorstep. No return address to speak of, nothing that I could discern accurately. Anyway, I got it drilled. Practiced with it once, and the very next day shot 300 with it in league play! I've always just wanted to thank whoever the
gracious benefactor was. I'll probably never know now.
Some days you're the bug....some days you're the windshield...that's bowling!

RIP Joe. Always brought the knowledge.

I will say I was shocked when I logged back on here after a couple years away. No discussions, just staffers posting reviews.

When this site was hot, we had ball raffles, all sorts of stuff.  What happened?
