UPDATED POST
Michael Wilbon has accepted the challenge of top PBA bowler Wes Malott – sort of. On his ESPN show Monday, Wilbon and TV partner Tony Kornheiser joked about the dispute which started a couple of weeks ago when Wilbon questioned Malott’s manhood for failing to show for a special “plastic ball” tournament. An “angry” Malott after winning another tournament on Sunday dared Wilbon to take him on. Wilbon now says he will play Malott – but only if he gets at least 57 pins as a handicap.

I’m happy to see Wilbon talk about manning up. This could turn into some sort of event for charity. I love the fact that a bowler’s natural reaction turns into positive publicity for himself and his sport.
