Why would it not be the normal shot?
What would you be if you were attached to another object by an inclined plane, wrapped helically around an axis?

So you're saying the ratings are more important to the USBC than the legacy of the entire Open Championship?

Qualify for what? It's an OPEN tournament, anyone who is a USBC member can bowl.

Well - Since we know he didnt have to qualify..  :o

Are you confusing the USBC Open Tournament (read: National tournament) with the US Open (PBA tournament)? Only thing I could think of. He is bringing his team there, comprising of Tom Clark and Mike Jakubowski. He also is going to bowl alongside McNeil for minors.

For the Nationals patterns, he's going to get the same pattern laid down that we all get.

So - Why is he on TV - Will everybody be on TV


Everyone on his pair will. Besides, bowling with the commissioner of the PBA would be worthy enough alone.

You might be right...

It says Dont Miss It! Former NFL Star Terrell Owens will the USBC Open Championships on Wed @ 10 pm ET and we will have LIVE covedfage on BowlTV!

And thats not all! Its the first part of a doubleheader as defending all events and doubles champion Matt McNiel takes to the lanes immediately following!

Help us spread teh word and be sure to tune in for the entering night of bowling,,,,

Then it shows his picture with Gold IQ I beleive..

Still sounds like marketing

USBC is a business.  If you didn't know that already, you do now.

It is marketing, but it's not like the show is on ABC or NBC or anything, it's a live webcast, how many people actually watch it other than us bowlers?

If you want TO to show up, just tell him there will be a camera.

If he throws the ball straight then the tournament condition or any other condition will not matter. Watching anyone shoot 120s no matter the venue is not entertainment.
…… you can't  add a physics term to a bowling term and expect it to mean something.
