First and foremost I would like to Congratulate Rick, I was in St.Louis all Thursday and Friday and he simply got the job done.PERIOD!!! Also the thing about WRW fouling and the lights going off, my experience with PBA telecasts are that the foul lights are not activated, there is a foul judge sitting in a chair directly to the far right watching for foot fouls, from my understanding this is done so that there is no technical errors. Alot of people on here want to bash Rick for the couple of breaks he got, if anyone else was in St.Louis on Friday please defend me here I saw WRW go brook against Scroggins 3 times, in the 4 game match I also watched him carry the house against Jaros in the round of 8 when poor Jaros kept leaving solid 8,9,10's Jaros was absolutely pounding the hole, it was so bad that when he finally did carry flush the crowd including WRW started applauding him. There have also been some people on here talking about I want to see the bowlers throwing the ball well win, needless to say that everyone needs breaks to bowl big numbers and win matches. Here is a perfect example that you wont read on the internet. Chris Barnes was probably throwing the ball better then ANYONE in the house on Friday at ST.Louis. He got by Horan in round 32, then in the round of 16 he faced Steelsmith, now I will give Steelsmith alot of credit because he also was throwing the ball well, but Barnes just simply powdered the pocket the entire match,in fact the one game he shot 192 and the first 9 were deep in the pocket he left to stone 8's one unbelievable 7 and a solid 10 to loose. THen in game 7 he left 3 straight solid 10's on the left lane. Also there is no reason to feel sorry for WRW, I dont think he has it to bad 40 titles tons of money, doesnt sound that rough. So give Rick alittle more credit that was a great victory for him.
