Howdy folks!  The latest episode of The Bowling Show is up over on youbowl.com.  Click here to see it.

As for me, I'm happy and, I'll admit, a little jealous that its Masters week...golf, that is.  "A tradition unlike any other," they call it...well except for maybe that little thing called the U.S. Constitution, or the Olympic torch relay or the electing of a pope.  Anyways, in sports, The Masters is as good as it gets (IMHO), and I'm looking forward to watching it.

The reason I'm sad, however, is because the tradition reminds me of just how far we folks in the bowling world have slipped away from the traditions of our past.  Remember "the Firestone?"  Ah yes...through these doors pass the world's greatest bowlers.  Bowling heaven.  Golf's Masters always reminds me of those days when I used to dream of bowling on the hallowed wood of Riviera Lanes, locking horns with the likes of Weber, Williams (Walter Ray, not Ron) and Webb (hey, a lot of great bowlers last names start with "W," pretty Weird).  But I hear Riviera is synthetic now and they charge $3 a game?

Anyways, enjoy The Bowling Show and enjoy the Masters and I'll talk to you soon!
