USBC would like to censor this column
« on: May 10, 2010, 06:06:39 AM »
This could never appear in the bowl.com forums, and USBC would also have it censored in the pba.com forums ...

"USBC leadership affirms serious financial difficulties, and the national governing body of bowling has seemed to have lost touch with members and delegates to the recent national convention in Reno."


When USBC was formed it was suppose to be a way to combine and save money for different governing bodies. They proceeded to not down size in their governing bodies and spend spend spend by creating this new facility in Texas. So all these high corporate people kept their jobs and added a new building to go with it.

AWESOME!!!! Yes they will fail because they are too stupid for their own good.

I've heard Jeff Boje speak, and Obama is certainly a better speaker than the USBC president, but I guess that without a teleprompter, either of them can stutter pretty good. Frankly, I don't have much faith in the competence of either one.

Coolrockindaddy, OK, I'll just limit my comments to the opinion that USBC is almost totally incompetent. Am I allowed to say that, in your opinion?

Coolrockindaddy, I see there's also a thread devoted to you, so you should be proud, right?

coolrockindaddy, even when you talk about politics, don't forget that USBC is involved in bowling politics. Also, do you consider it fair game to mention Obama if and when he goes bowling?

The only way I average 240 is on a scale.

There is one about 1/2 mile from my apartment here in Tucson. I ended up averaging 220 for 21 games while subbing this season. I went down last Friday on sweeper night and 4 bowlers out of 8 on one pair shot 720+ and there were 2 300 games and a 298 shot that night as well.

105 games in that house? No thanks, I stick to bowling a PBAX league and a scratch league in my home house that puts out a little tougher shot.

I think the column that this thread is about hits the nail on the head.
