Mega Tron Core?
« on: October 03, 2008, 04:09:09 AM »
What is a Mega Tron core? When did bowling become a Japanese B Movie? What’s next GPS systems, on board navigation. They’re ruining bowling.

As long as they don't bash potential customers, then I'll give them a shot.

I couldn't imagine (in my line of work) making a personal wise crack about a potential customer or users of my company's product because I don't share their views or opinions....

Lol, I've seen that picture before.  I don't know if it's more funny, or more sad.

The guy has been active in the other forums. He's also posted some videos on you tube. He's insane.

He won't reply to any of our posts.  I think he enjoys posting his opinions (as stupid as they are) and watches us respond in all manners that we do...

Well he can still buy rubber and plastic bowling balls with little to no cores. Look back at all the bowling stuff from the early 90s to now, there is a lot of stupid stuff that comes and goes. Does it matter what they call the core, is a rose by any other name not still as sweet?

Call them a1 a2 a3 ect it will not change anything.

wait wait wait. I just watched the vid the other guy has linked. It was price less. The guy thinks he's Denis Leary or something. But what is even better then that is he is complaining about new equipment and shows the Columbia Chaos and then goes to the "REAL MANS BALL" which is BLACK and requires skill.

Guess what,that ball isn't any better. It's a black Ebonite Turbo. Urethane with a BULB core and has the features of-

"The Turbo's powerful two-piece construction gives you a highly concentrated core with an extra thick shell -- nearly two inches of urethane. This means a more consistent roll and greater impact, keeping pins lower for improved carry-through. The bold graphic design, vibrant colors and a great price complete this power package."


That's not a "mans ball", it is technology and still requires little skill to strike with. Go average 200+ with rubber or plastic and you will get much respect. I know a guy, left handed, that throws one Ebonite urethane ball and averages 230 and shoots a lot of high scores. He is a great bowler. But wouldn't do that with rubber or plastic.

Plus does this guy have a video showing his bowling skill???

Aw that was to funny when he held up the Ebonite Turbo. Yes, ball cores had names in the early 90's, but none of them were megatron.

Funny, but weird.  Just to show the kind of things that can happen when you haven't been laid since the last Bush was President.

The Videos remind me of the John Cleese Titleiest videos where he is screaming about the NXT's and how they are ruining the game. They are pretty funny. But then again I think John Cleese is a comedic Genius.

Those who know me and have asked for help know me to be an honest guy who will give you my Honest opinion, Although at times less than politically correct but passionate like many of you who love this sport.

If in fact the Dale Jenkins thing is a marketing fiasco thats fine, like I said it reminds me of the John Cleese Titelist NXT commercials so its not original and not nearly as funny, but a good spoof. I did enjoy the Commentaries on You Tube about a Man's Ball!

Thanks for bringing me back into this thread It was not just me that tooks Billy Ray's post the wrong way, others did too. Read back through the first page and you will see.

As far as your opinion of me and my posts, your entitled to that. You can also bash my intrests as you stated. No tears from me.....

Since you are 25 years my senior, I'll respect my elders and not insult you as you did me
