This weeks show....
« on: November 08, 2009, 03:27:42 AM »
I tune in to watch bowling,not a recap of the entire qualifying tournament!!!!!!! I could care less how they got there. This is stupid. No wonder the PBA is losing viewers and support from the general public.
 Definitely not like the hey days of the old Saturday afternoon telecasts. Idiots...............

Just goes to show that you could coat the lanes with gold, stud the pins with diamonds, and there would still be a bowler b!tching about something.

You have a right to your opinion, but at least the PBA is trying and isn't going to die doing the same thing ad nauseam.

I think it's interesting, but I did prefer to see the semifinals on TV. I have never seen how they get there, so this is fresh and entertaining.

I do see how it could get old...we'll see what happens!

I do too. I'm not really feeling the way its ending. I thought we would see a little recap and the show, not feeling this full hour of a documentary.

I thought the show was lousy! I don't care what they told us .. I want to see bowling on a bowling show! Felt like it was a COMMERCIAL show .. every time I turned around I was looking at another commercial .. after all these years I think they have finally LOST ME!

I have to agree I like the concept, but this is just boring. I didn't even watch the documentry on the finals. I thought they had a good thing going last year with the mix of the women tournys, but this is just terrible imo.

This is terrible.  Being cheap doesn't save money in the long haul.  This may be the most uninterested I have ever been in the PBA.  Nice weather in Indiana for a change, and I am wasting my afternoon with this BS.

these commercials are getting rediculous. its like every 5 minutes.

i wish they wouldve taken the first half hour and summarized the tournament then have the last hour like the regular show with the semi finals and final

I liked it.  I'll agree though, the commercial breaks are a bit close together.

I don't even know what happened???

It sounded like they recapped the tournament qualifying in sunday's show but in the last match, they said Norm won his 33rd title??? I thought this was the path to get to tv, not the actual championship match? If so, the PBA does not look professional anymore. It's nice to get insight of the pros but the way they went about it made it seem very unprofessional.

I loved the show.  Was nice to see a variety of bowlers showcased on tv.  They also tried to point out some of the PBA stars to some of the casual viewers.  I liked hearing what was going thru the players heads at certain times.  It wouldn't work every week, but this documentary type show could do a lot to help casual viewers understand the pba better.  

Plus, a best of 7 match isn't that great on TV unless it goes 7.  Especially if its a 4-0 blowout where one guy is striking and the other has a terrible look.
