@guitarninjaz23 ESPN broadcasts sports, Bowling is a sport, would make sense, wouldn't it?

@ThBstFSxy Yes, Bowling has luck involved obviously, but so does every single other sport on this planet. In a game to 21 against Kobe, I think anyone with at least a tiny bit of skill in basketball could sneak 1 win out, same with bowling, but with bowling, Chris Barnes and Wes Malott are so good that they can repeat their same shot over and over and over, whereas just a normal league bowler might also be able to get "lucky" and sneak 1 win out. Same goes for any sport.

Worst pattern is the shark, by far.

@ThBstFSxy Luck is part of every sport. Have you ever been in a golf tournament and seen a wild drive hit a tree to come out to land <80 yards from the green in the center of the fairway? I have, nearly every time I play... The argument was about whether bowling is a sport. I completely agree, bowling is about giving yourself the best CHANCE of striking, not necessarily guaranteeing yourself a strike. Once again golf, hit the pin and have your ball roll 30 yards away on a seemingly perfect shot.

@ThBstFSxy A whole game consists of 12 frames. All of the frames being opens/7-10s would be highly unlikely. Not just one shot. Also if that happened do you think people would just shrug it off and regard it as normal? No, it's a rare occurance and not likely Yes, it is possible the amateur could win. But it is more likely it likely that the pro would win. That is all I;m trying to say here. The same thing could happen in another sport (just not as likely)

@HAMHOTPOT Who says you have to be consistent to beat someone in bowling? Have you ever left a pocket 7-10... Didn't someone on live TV leave two in a row? Now, the guy off the street picks up a ball, goes straight through the face and strikes. Sounds like a fair trade to me, right? Have you ever seen a pro throw a Brooklyn strike? How is that skill or consistent? Yes, there is a difference between all sports, but here it doesn't matter how well you or I throw the ball, a pin could still stand.

@dcpsx I'm actually a 235 average bowler...And a PBA member. I'll give you my name, you can look at my 28 300's, 18 800's...I know the game. You said it, learn the GAME! I have been through enough games to realize there is a LOT of luck involved. I bowled with my best friend a few times and he shot a 222 at me. Literally bowled 10ish times in his life. Of course, he had Brooklyn strikes and such but I leave the whole back row and shoot 215 to lose. Good shots only COULD be good in bowling...

@ThBstFSxy A random bowler on the street who has only bowled a few times in his life would not win against wes. They are not consistent enough.
Viper and Chameleon, worst Pba patterns, anyone agree?
