Who would you nominate for the BallReviews.com hall of fame?
« on: January 27, 2009, 02:37:08 AM »
In honor of recently inducted Norm Duke and Del Ballard into the PBA hall of fame, it got me thinking.  Who are the best all time posters in ballreviews history.  Who would you put in and why, past or present?  Not the hall of very good, the hall of fame.

My nomination goes to Ric Hamlin, current username JustRico, former name BrunsRico

Ric has been posting here for as long as I can remember.  He has helped many, many users, including me, in the selection of bowling balls, layouts, drilling options, surface preps, etc.  Any questions about the characteristics of a bowling ball not just Brunswick stuff, he was the man to go to.  He was the only reason I, and probably many others, used a bowling ball with the lengendary Rico layout and why the cg of a bowling ball no longer matters.
Thanks Ric


On the side would anybody put yours truely in?  I got a couple hundred posts to my credit and been here since 04', nothing to shame about

I would put in charlest for his knowledge. He has helped me out a few times on layouts/surfaces and always has a positive attitude when helping me.

Also, cudaskater123, because him and I always agree on everything. He was the first friend I made on here and he also has cool stories to tell.

Now for comedy, Preditor, he always has the most random post that make me laugh everytime. Haven't seen him here in a while though.

Without a doubt, charlest.

I never have to post a bowling question, all I have to do is search through his postings.  My answer will always be there.

I'd go with Necro, but he's a self proclaimed HOF'er since '03.

Sawbones & Rev_O

Both have been of great help to me in a multitude of ways and always talk a lot of sense.

I would nominate myself. I've been around the site for a long time I'm good looking, and my mom says I'm a really nice guy. I figure, I like me, so everybody else probably does, too. I think I deserve this!

On a more serious, topic-oriented note, obviously, sawbones would have to be a first-ballot guy. He's always got something interesting to contribute. There are plenty of other very good posters on here (not as many as there once was), so it's hard to think of everyone.

I would have to nominate dp3, because he's up there as one of the "LEGIT" knowledgable guys on this site.  And yet for some reason his posts always go ignored.  My guess is that it's for one of too reason, a. He's so accurate in his discription and so on point that people read it, get the information they need and have absolutely nothing to debate on it, or b. He's so accurate and informed on the point at hand that the typical BR poster actually has no idea what he is saying.
