Historic may be an Understatement


Today, Kelly Kulick made history. Not ordinary history, but the kind that should be worthy of front page sports news. Maybe even frontpage frontpage for it's significance in our man's man's world.
She has done what Danica and Anika tried but couldn't quite do. She won the Pro Bowler's Tournament of Champions. In bowling, this is the most prestigious major. It is the Masters of bowling. This is not Michele Wie winning the St. Jude.
This is as big as Obama in so many ways. It changes our world forever and takes us places that can only be good.
It will be interesting to see if Hoopster in Chief invites her to the White House. He may have to dig deep into his Blackberry to even find out. I personally think he will. We know he knows how hard bowling is! And may be the only person who can fathom the significance and understand the importance of what Kelly has done.
