Your list of bowlers you don't want to see contains 3 of the best bowlers you'll ever see.

Just out of curiosity Greg, what is it about Robert Smith that you don't like?  From everything I've heard, he's one of the friendliest, best-liked guys on tour.

what three are you refering to ? pete webers a great player but can't stand his attitude. robert smith is still too one dimensional---he either finishes 1st or 100th.

Greg,

Pete Weber
Robert Smith
Jason Couch

Smith and Couch are both shoo-ins for the Hall of Fame someday.  Regardless of your personal feelings about Pete Weber, he is undeniably one of the best ever to shoe up.

seadrive----never said pete weber couldn't bowl. i never said barry bonds couldn't play baseball either but he's still a jackass. know what i mean ?

jason couch will probably make the hall of fame down the road----no doubt a great player. don't like his attitude.

robert smith may not be a lock for the hall of fame. inconsistent play may hurt him. not to mention his style and type of game might wear him down early----ditto for couch.

i think the players i mentioned represent THE best that the pba has to offer:


walter ray williams, jr.----6 time pba player of the year, pba hall of famer, 37 titles, 5 majors, best righthander of all-time, etc.

norm duke---2 time pba player of the year, abc hall of famer, future pba hall of famer, 20 titles, 3 majors, etc.


parker bohn III---2 time pba player of the year, pba hall of famer, 29 titles, an abc masters, 2nd best lefthander of all-time, etc.

brian voss---pba player of the year, pba hall of fame, 22 titles, pba national championship winner, etc.

chris barnes---pba rookie of the year, 5 titles, best talent to hit the pba tour in the past 15 years.

i think these are reason enough........

Fine Greg, no problem.  Mongo the Unlefty asked you why you didn't want to see the guys on your least-favorite list, other than Weber, who we all know you hate.  You didn't answer the question, but you said this:

I just pointed out that talent and ability cannot be the only reasons for your choices, since there are some very good players in your second list, and one great player.

oh, i don't know about that. talent and ability are two great reasons for having certain players as your favorites. after all, it's the talent and ability that get you multiple titles, hall of fame, etc.  attitude, demeanor, showboating, etc., never won a title.
