when belmo said "good bowlin mate" to sean, that killed me lol

hopefully he bowls that "good" everytime they match up haha

[@matthewthomas1335]

I wish he said, Thanks for coming out.

[@gunz300]

Rash was the top qualifier in both his region and the stepladder. He was the best bowler in the tournament. Why would you think Belmo was making an underhanded comment?

[@Agron125]

@@gunz300 consider their rivalry and then rewatch that part in this video

[@kathleenmcculloch2315]

@@Agron125 it’s great to see that I’m not the only one that noticed that too. How did Randy and Dave not pick up on what happened during that last 5 minutes of the show? It simply blew my mind and took my breath away. Anybody who doesn’t recognize this really doesn’t know the true meaning of “good sportsmanship”. It’s really quite wonderful to know that even though they’re fierce rivals that they’ve also grown as people too. I was truly moved and deeply impressed!!

Arguably? There's no argument, he's obviously one of the best ever. Honestly, he's the best to ever do it, and no one is close.

[@twyzted2008]

@@bosoxdanc1 The major titles alone are enough to put him above the rest, IMO. There's over 50% less tournaments these days than were in the days of when WRW was able to farm title wins, so I think Belmo having close to 30 + the majors can really put him in the conversation for being the GOAT.

[@Krranski]

@@bosoxdanc1 It becomes difficult when comparing across decades and when there are larger and smaller fields of players in different formats. But yes, he is pretty widely regarded as in the top 3, at least. If he continues to win even close to the rate he is now he's obviously going to the top. One must consider longevity, which a few bowlers currently have over him and more total titles than him.

I been watching older belmo videos and he was more vocal and energetic. It’s so refreshing to see him like this again. Talk that talk belmo!!

[@NotQuiteEpic]

I think Quintero's performance was the most impressive. People came in expecting Belmo to win while Arturo was hammering shots and making other players nervous. I hope he got that tickle and we get to see him making more shows.

[@TheGoatsThatBeBroken]

Yeah, I agree. I think Belmonte would have still pulled it off; but I think the Quintero-Belmonte match would have been a lot closer had Quintero not had that unfortunate open in the 7th frame.

[@flipper9038]

Wish The PBA tour was an actual tour like it was pre 2011.. almost 30 pba tournaments a year with 5 majors. Some of the guys, including belmo, would be at 30+ titles.

[@nikitafilatov2319]

He still has a chance to pass WRWJ. For that he should eliminate years like 2016,2021 and grab 3-4 titles a year like 2017,2019,2020. It would be much easier if he played summer tour consistently. Simple math more tournaments you play more possible titles you may grab. My prediction is that he will end with 40+ titles, maybe 2nd tied/clean or 3rd tied/clean. Unfortunately 48+ titles is beyond the reality

[@mpup54]

I hate this format. I miss all the city stops and how tjhey used more of the calendar. Its just lost its pizazz and all those familiar stops are gone. i literally latched on to some of those stops. I mean its getting old pretty fast, not as interesting and a lot less variety than the good ole days.

[@joellee2748]

Never have I felt more satisfied than what I have witnessed today. After the fiasco with what Sean Rash did in the Midwest Finals, and hearing that he got the No.1 seed, I was hoping for Jason to take him down. The fact that Jason took him down with his LOWEST score of all 6 TV games he bowled makes it even better. Sean has no one to blame but himself. Another No.1 seed squandered.

[@themaconeau]

Karma is a beyotch 👍

[@Krranski]

I wasn't rooting for Belmo, at all, but at the same time he very obviously outbowled every competitor he faced after qualifying from the West and was mega consistent until the final game (understandable, it's a major title + $40k over second). Anyone's gotta give him credit for at least that much, even those who don't like him.

[@Kevin-bt4wb]

Another major for Belmo! Can he be stopped? A year away and just picks up right where he left off. This is unbelievable! At this rate, he might end up with 20 major titles. He’s this generation’s Walter Ray Williams Jr. Belmo’s the gold standard. If you want to win, you’ll have to get past him, just like they had to do with WRWJ back then. Congrats Belmo on another major!

Fantastic final match

[@MrSully300]

Let's be honest: The only way someone can really compete--week after week-- is to bowl 2 handed. The higher rev rate allows for greater mistake area and far better pin chaos

[@davidfenech7185]

In reality .. it’s his consistency , ability to adjust quickly and lane knowledge that are the key factors .. there are higher revving bowlers around ( both 1 and 2 handed ) .. but those are , in my view , the big difference… plus his will to win

[@MrSully300]

@@davidfenech7185 What make Pros far better than the rest is the ADJUSTMENT. They move frames quicker than "us". But they also have ball reps that help in that adjustment.

[@kylewarden6074]

As someone who started bowling 1 handed and stayed like that since I was 6 all the way until junior year of high school. I’m now two handed and have been since this October and I can say they are very different but two handed carry definitely bails me out, the issue is with the higher revs you need to be more accurate because if the ball catches friction it will snap too hard and if you miss in it might just slide all day. I would honestly argue two hander should have a different bracket but that’s difficult to change.

[@MrSully300]

@@kylewarden6074 That's a honest reply-thanks. On one hand, you say you have to be more accurate, but on the other hand, less accurate because the pins sure act like a tornado and get more "breaks"

It’s helps being the 1 seed but at the same time it’s a bit of a burden, I’d rather be the 2 or 3 seed and get a shot at the lane before the title match. Being the 1 seed with no games, your adjustments have to be super quick. belmo definitely had an advantage going into the final
