Just to clarify Google bowling in its original definition was to point links (site wide or not) directly to your competitor domain in a way to hurt them. Whether or not this was true is still debate in my mind

This new concept is a tangent of the original. You are now pointing crap links to website that you competitor domain links to or receives links from, not the actual competitor domain itself. Maybe you could call this other method "Google Gutter Bowling"

I have always disagreed that you could not hurt a websites by simply linking to it as in the first example of Google Bowling, but with this next method I think could be possible.

What you are doing is basically doing is attempting to give a lower weight not directly to your competitor domain, but the domains the competitor links out to and more than likely has IBL's from. This could create that bad neighborhood theory if done correctly.

Does anyone see what I mean?
