2004 US Open

Interviewer: “How will you stay focused?”
Osku: “I dunno”
LMAO
hes the best…what a great line
odellus Osku has done well, he never became as versatile as Belmonte has developed. Oskuโs game is pretty much one dimensional though heโs made a living at the sport we love
Ian must have been one of the people sitting to the right of the lanes…? Or, maybe a camera man…?
42:20 YEEEAAAAAAAHHHH !!
Ha Ha Ha Haaa ha Haaa!! ๐
I think he said “SNAAAAAP!” and the chop gesture meant the 6-pin cut the 10-pin down like a tree.
1:32:46. Love Peteโs genuine fire passion!
26:13
1:32:57 โfirst ones on me tonightโ ๐๐
Man…..a rock band introducing the finalists, taking place in what looks like a giant arena (though probably not as many people as it shows) with a 100k prize.
2004 was such a different time for bowling.
wish it was still that way bro, or something like it
Nice commentary by Maximum Bob, his rev rate would put the top bowlers now to shame.
And this was the show that had everyone trying to bowl 2 handed the next day.. truth

Oh and Palerma was the first to bowl 2 handed on tv hmmm
As much as I thought bowling was dying when this aired, by comparison to today it seems alive and well.
Bowling has been doing great since it moved to CBS and FS1. I just wish Fox would stick to sports.
The PBA was endangered of going under once ABC canceled the PBA in 1997 but it has made a tremendous comeback I the Jason Belmonte and the 2 handed style made people watch again because it was something new and interesting
Yep, bowling is garbage today with everyone using two hands. No thanks
I miss PBA Bowling on ESPN. I remember watching these telecasts while I was in my bowling league.
26:14 – Osku Palermaa’s super powerful shot.
I remember watching this live back in the day and thinking oskus style was a cute gimmick. Now all these years later and Osku is legit and the greatest bowler of all time is a 2 handed Aussie. Its wild
not sure if anyone cares but in less than 15 minutes I hacked my girlfriends Instagram account using InstaPwn. You can find it by Googling for InstaPwn account hack ๐
1:22:55 – Brian Voss CONVERTS 4-6-7 SPLIT!!! The 4 pin comes out from the back and takes down the 6 pin! That is the most amazing split conversion I’ve ever seen from Brian Voss!!
I bowled in the this tournament. Crossed with Williams either 1st or 2nd squad. He could not hit anything that round. Takes a helluva bolwer to come back and make the finals.
I miss PDW he is my favorite bowler
Helluva Line up! Voss, WRW, Jr. PW, Barnsey and a Euro 2 Handed roller from Finland….It doesn’t get any better than this!!!
Osku looks so different compared to what he looks like nowadays. Man I feel so old LOL
