Post by: A_P_K on December 18, 2003, 12:28:32 PM: I thought the fee for the World Match Games over there was $185? Could you please clarify this for me, that's a little more reasonable.

Would you give everything up, just to do it all over again?

Post by: DP3 on January 01, 2004, 10:42:48 PM: I heard Adam Ishman tore it up. Where did he finish? I know he's been bowling awesome all year for Penn State and I also heard he had a 300 game in there. BTW, the winner was Chris Klerk from Arizona, he's an awesome bowler. Good bowling to all of the members of the site that bowled well.

Post by: Next Level PS on January 02, 2004, 06:30:56 AM: Thanks Guys, Chris Klerk Finished in 1st he's a good bowler from Arizona state Unv. It was only one 300 shot yesterday which was surprising. Timmy bowled awesome the second half I should have bowled better but I was watching Mike Fagan two pairs down every other shot, man is game is something to watch. It was good also to cross with some good bowlers Tom jordan former team USA bowler,Robert Monkenhok,and Jimmy Winterfield they kept me focus.

Post by: LuckyLefty on January 02, 2004, 09:48:32 AM: Chris Klerk,

He sells balls on here occassionally.

I have a Vortex II pearl from him.
It should do better. It couldn't be operator error could it?

Post by: Next Level PS on January 02, 2004, 02:26:13 PM: Thanks, LL

more info: Tim Mack went crazy the second half of the tourney. their was almost 600 brackets per set 1,2,3 -4,5,6 and 8,9,10 (1800 brackets) from what I here Timmy took home nearly $20,000 in bracket money. Timmy your one sick SOB! ( and he sponsored himself)

next year guys don't let this tournament pass you by.

Post by: seadrive on January 03, 2004, 10:57:36 AM: Hey Next Level,

First off, congrats! To beat out Tim Mack for 2nd is something I can only dream of!

Was this an am-only tournament? If so, why was Tim allowed to enter (he's a PBA pro now, remember?), and if not, where were Parker and Shafer and Delutz and PA and the rest of the NY/NJ touring pro's?

Were you disqualified from entering if you have a PBA title?

Post by: seadrive on January 03, 2004, 12:50:54 PM: Ummmm... that's certainly possible, charlest. However, unlike you, the guys I mentioned earn their living bowling, and last time I looked, Parker hadn't earned too much money this year. So, if I were Parker, and I were eligible to compete, I probably would have shoed up.

Hopefully NLPS will tell us what the eligibility rules were.

Post by: cgilyeat on January 03, 2004, 09:09:17 PM: National champions and I believe the top 25 on money list were not eligible to enter. Since Tim Mack hsn't won a PBA title or enough money to be that high on the list, he got to enter. NLPS correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have the flyer in front of me.

Post by: Next Level PS on January 04, 2004, 01:37:29 AM: Seadive, all the top northeast ams and pro were present (mostly regional pro's) this tour is open to any bowler at any level.

Post by: cgilyeat on January 04, 2004, 08:41:22 AM: NLPS, When I checked in, I thought Tom had a sheet taped to the table that stated the PBA National Champions were excluded as well as some other resrictions. DId I read it wrong??
Title: Re: News Years Day Marathon. in NJ. $6500 for 1st
Post by: Next Level PS on January 04, 2004, 09:26:44 AM: Yeat, your are correct if this was not true I know Tommy Deluzt and many other pba guys would have been there to rape the tournament.

Post by: cgilyeat on January 04, 2004, 03:34:09 PM: Not that it mattered the way I bowled Thurs. I'd throw a good game, then struggle the next one, I couldn't keep any momentum going. It turned out to be a very long day for me. But, there's always next year.
