Pray for Jason and i hope Station pays his bills and the PBA defers his exempt status for next year, this is a disgrace to Vegas and Station Casinos.

probably will lose his exempt status from not making it points wise now, he is probably going to be out the rest of the year.
It really sucks for Jason, and I hope there's no long-term damage that could hurt his career.
But the way he's been bowling, he didn't need an eye-injury to be worried about losing his exemption. Dino Castillo has 9 places on him and he's not even exempt.

Second off, if Jason's retina was already "detached" he would have gone blind. It was becoming detached.
If you are going to post about something that involves someone other than yourself please know the right facts to report on, otherwise you will just start a rumor mill!!
Wish the best for Jason.

Also, who will get in if he is out? How far out of the cut was Wayne Webb when the tour trials were over?

There's less than half the season remaining. Doesn't seem fair to pick up another bowler from Tour Trials or points at this point. There'd be no way to earn an exemption starting this late in the game short of winning. Might be better to just open up another spot in PTQs.

Unless you were in the Bar when this happened and would like to be a man and post your real name??? You do not know what is going on here do you?? Yes it did have to do with Tony reyes being verbally attacked and his girlfriend asked the bartender for security and they did nothing about it.
I know people on the PBA tour i am not going to post who it is or who is telling me this but the br members can trust anything i post for being accurate. This is second hand so yes by legality it is rumors in case you work for Station and wish to threaten me with a law suit.

Definition
A retinal detachment occurs when the retina is pulled away from its normal position in the back of the eye. The retina sends visual images to the brain through the optic nerve. When detachment occurs, vision is blurred. A detached retina is a very serious problem that almost always causes blindness unless it is treated.

I know there are are multiple stories out there, but until I talk with Jason and see how he is and if he wants me to post details I will hold off.
Post by: mrbowlingnut on January 30, 2007, 01:41:45 PM
I am willing to put together a collection for Jason if anyone is interested??? I do not read the PBA boards so i do not know if there is one going on there already???

Here's hoping that it all turns out OK for Mr. Hurd and that the scum who hit him gets to room with Bubba for several years.

Tony was coming out of restroom when 2 guys who were related approached him. They were both hassling him, I started to go to him and then one shoved him in the back. I then asked, told and insisted the female bartender to call security and she did nothing. IMO had she called right then and there none of this would have happened. The guys still harassing Tony as he kept walking away from it all. He did nothing to keep the situation going, he just kept walking away. The brothers were pretty drunk, and they were going to start a fight with whomever. I then asked the male bartender to call security and he just shrugged his shoulder. Both bartenders were watching everything unfold. One of the brothers, who worked for the casino. Jason came walking up the steps asked what was going on and got sucker punched by this A**hole. Jason slipped on the wet floor and the bothers then both started hitting him when he was on the ground. That is when security arrived!!! A lil bit too late!!!
This should have never happened. It frustrates me to no end knowing it could have ALL been avoided once the bartender was informed!

The person who Jason should be going after is actually the person/persons that did this to him! If everything is correct and they were off duty employees there, I am sure they no longer are employees there by now or for that matter allowed back in to at least Sunset Station.

To a degree I agree there. But they are off the clock therefore on their own time. If an employee strikes you on the clock the establishment should be held liable. But off the clock they only represent that establishment and therefore that is why they will probably be fired. But they still should enlight of what happened take care of any of Jason's bills. As far as Jason going after Station Casino's I am sure they have the best lawyers money can buy and they will end up telling him to go after the people who did this to him! I am sure they will provide him with names or whatever he may need.

I hope he is able to come back. If you know Jason as well as i do you know he is one of the nicest guys on tour.

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment
When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one
This guy on youtube posts videos of the PBA
for ppl who dont watch TV or want to save the matches this will be great!
