It's their attempt to try and find something different for the Olympics

Holy moly what happen!!! I didn't know wbt was on I watch Ryan cimenlli get crushed n didn't bother continuing!!

I have a hard time putting together 12 strikes in a row. They are getting paid 10,000 dollars to throw 10 in a row. I think that is a little stupid and devalues the 300 even more than it already was. But congrats to Dom Barrett.

I don't like this scoring system at all! Score keeping isn't that damn hard! Use the traditional scoring. If not, at least make the 10th frame 3 potential shots for this world b/s scoring system!

I think most of the players didn't like the new scoring system but they understand the reasoning behind it. At least when they were talking with Dom Barrett. I understand the why now but come on traditional scoring is not that hard at all.

It's just like the frame play they tested within the past few years where whoever got the highest count won the frame.  They need to keep scoring traditional.

Props to Dom Barrett for bowling great today.  It was also nice to see Mike Fagan come back and have a strong run on the show.  Then Danielle McEwan is really bowling well lately and has been stepping up when it counts.  Great to see.

I did not see the show.  What was different about the scoring system?  Don't you still need 12 strikes in a row for a 300?

The world bowling system is 10 frames, but the 10th is just like every other frame. Don't have to throw 3

Dom only needed 10 in a row for a 300. Stupid in my opinion.

So if only 10 strikes, then every strike is worth 30 pins per frame?  What happens if after the first 9, the bowler gets 9/ in the 10th?  Or 9-?  Is it possible to get a 299? 

I guess I just don't understand the new, modern math.
