I will start with some from another thread. Have fun!
If there are too many releases they complain.
If there are fewer releases they complain.
If the shot is hard they complain.
If the shot is easy they complain.
If they hit between the 1 & 3 pins and don't carry they complain.
If they hit between the 1 & 2 pins and don't carry they complain.
If the league is sanctioned they complain.
If the league doesn't sanction they complain.
If they shoot 801 with 3 open frames they complain (they got robbed).

This ball hooks too much (or too little).
-
I had to move.
I shot 250 190 130. Of course I didn't move, my shot just went away. So frustrated!

"The ball I REALLY needed is sitting on the floor at home. None of the 10 I brought with me got the job done."

Lol @ "shot went away" Of course it did. A large majority of bowlers are so committed to bolting their feet to the big dot and NEVER moving, they would much rather make their way to their albatross 6 ball roller from 2008 and cycle through several asymmetrical, dull balls when all they have to do is move 2 and 1.

This is the I shot 1500 at USBC battle cry. "My 32*- 4 5/16- 72* ball is what I needed". Nevermind hitting what youre looking at or repeating the same mechanics 3 times in a row.
-
"You're wrecking the shot."
Shut up. Please. You don't even know what you're talking about.
"That ball has to be illegal."
No, I'm just better than you.

"Why can't things be the way they used to be?"
BECAUSE the only constant is change (death and taxes, but that's another subject.)

Tell them you can still buy plastic or rubber bowling balls to bowl league and tournaments with………. The dumb look afterwards never gets old lol

You guys all saying it all, these bowlers ' are so comical, the satisfaction I get while observing them, butch, whine, and complain, yet can't comprehend a single thing on the approach. I get my popcorn ready for sure. ;D

> rubber bowling balls to bowl league
Sorry to be pedantic and miss the point but I thought a lot of house don't let you throw rubber any more because it trashes modern lanes? Curious about that.

no joke. drilled a emerald kinetic for a guy. week later, "this ball hooks to damn much" so I do some surface changes to it. 2 weeks later "plug this ball and redrill it, it wont f*cking hook"

Well, you wouldn't want to be responsible for the nose bleed he would get if he had to move his feet, now would you?

Still plenty with rubber house balls. It varies center to center I'm guessing

Getting crop dusted at the line...... >:(

AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
-
Foul. My foot did not touch the line.
-
The cost of sanctioning.
The awards ABC gave out.
The lack of awards USBC gives out.
Other bowlers.
Having to follow the rules.
People who do not follow the rules.
People who don't even KNOW the rules.
Sticky approaches.
Slick approaches.
League starts too early.
League starts too late.
You name it, bowlers will complain about it.
And, while I know that I am not a bowling Einstein, I do know a bit, and I simply love hearing bowlers complaining about "how stupid" somebodies release is, and then they turn around and do something themselves that makes them look totally ridiculous.
The one that always sticks out to me is hearing someone talk smack about the way somebody else throws the ball, only to watch them throw serious shots that are so poorly executed that it makes me giggle. Pot calling the kettle.............?

Overheard while bowling on WTBA Beijing in my sport shot league last night:
"If the PBA put a shot out this hard, all the members would quit"

Yeah, well sport shot league will attract good bowlers looking to do what I personally call, real bowling. It'll also attract that group who, while I respect them showing up for it (compared to the vast majority of house shot guys), look at it as a sort of novelty, and just talk about how hard it is.
-
Leaving the 10 pin.
-
Bowlers who play the same line,yet complain that the line hooks too much/too early, but WILL NOT MOVE their feet, eyes, target, nothing, and will just change balls,hoping for that magical perfect reaction to come back, only to make it worse. These bowlers' are the worst that I've seen.
-
Yet again as many of us have mentioned over the years, why this sport will never be taken seriously, or get true respect.
-
Last but not least, bowlers' also kill me when they say the Lanes are too dry, yet they use the most aggressive /midlevel equipment they (won't buy a entry level ball if you even showed proof of how it benefits lighter conditions).
Oh the life of bowling, if bowlers aren't complaining, their not happy.

Because the PBA guys make this pattern look like a house shot.
-
As for Sport Shot league -
Complaints that not able to use this league avg. for handicap tournaments.
Then arguing w/ me when I say that would be cheating.
