Ball-A-Day Giveaway defunct
« on: November 06, 2006, 09:12:33 AM »
It was bound to happen.  Del is gone, and now the ball-a-day giveaway is gone.  To all that won, way to go to.  For the ones that didn't(like myself) we tried.  And for those that won twice, go to a casino or play the lottery!

newguy,

you're an idiot!!!

you HAD alot of loyal people that gave alot of input on these boards. As you can see, probably 85% of them no longer post because of the crap you pulled!


Thank you for the personal attack. I only offered an opinion. If you didn't like my opinion I totally understand, but to make personal attacks, well I guess you have that right.

Welcome to my ignore list, BowlingBallz, enjoy your stay!

I'm not a bowler, but I do play one on Ballreviews.

If you don't like Wrigley, you might as well leave the country and join the Taliban.

Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Selliger of the Southern Cal bowling league. I just got a report that a member of your team, Walter Solcheck, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true, it controveens a number of league bylaws.

I don't think he needs your permission to do that.

Personally, I am embarrassed that someone would come on here and talk to Phil the way Z has done. Phil deserves respect for his position with Track.

Sure it's not nice to cancel a free ball giveaway, but it's not like anyone is losing anything out of this.  Track was nice enough to even give out ANYTHING, so they had to right to stop doing it whenever they pleased.  I doubt it had the effect of name-spreading that they hoped so from a business sense it didn't really seem logical to continue it.  If I started giving you $10 every week for the heck of it, then after a few weeks decided to keep it, do you really think that you have the right to complain about me because I'm not doing a service I don't need to?

And replies like the ones in this thread are what you want to come out of the President of a company?  Not bashing, just wondering.

I'm a little upset about the B-A-D giveaway ending prematurely.  I've been throwing Track (exclusively) for the past 3 1/2 years or so until just before the start of this season when I bought a Black Widow.  So my loyalty had nothing to do with a free giveaway.  But why say you will run it for a year and end it after 5 months?  It's also pretty irritating to go enter every weekday and not win when there are people who got to win more than once.  So thanks for nothing I guess.

Oh well, I'm leaning heavily towards trying another Hammer ball next anyway.  So far, they seem to match up for me better.

Holy crap. I can't believe that you people are talking to the man that MADE Track a name 10 years ago like he's some schmuck behind a keyboard.

This is Phil.
 


I was getting ready to post asking if this "new guy" is Phil as I thought it was. Isn't there another Track offical also called the "other guy"?

Although Track may not have held this ball give-a-way for the year as intended, I think it is great they did it as long as they did. Even if Track had done this for only one week, it is still longer than any other company did so everyone should give Track credit for that. You don't see any other ball company out here being as generous as Track was.

HEY GUYS!

This stuff has to stop...I, for one, believe this to be the reason as to why some of the gurus that post in the Track forum have stopped posting...because of idiotic childishness on the part of users who have nothing better to do than cause problems...and to be honest, I'm considering leaving the forums as well because of this crap...

Phil, anytime. People still crave stuff that you made 10 years ago. So I know we're in for something else.

Brick,

Other Guy is Billy O, if I am not mistaken. He was with Dyno, but not sure about Track. Correct me if I am wrong.

And as of these stone 8's or gutterballs, you watching shows from the 80's or something? What does that have to do with ANYTHING?

Weirdo.

Jeremy


Billy O is with Brunswick now..

You can here his voice in the new Total Inferno video.
