Post subject:  Laura Rutledge Fulfills Career Dream Moment

This will jog a sport's fans memory.

Remember in January 1994, when CBS was at the time signing off on their NFC football package when Terry Bradshaw joked to Greg Gumbel:

"Does The Masters have a pregame show?"

Fast forward 30 years later...and the honor goes to Laura Rutledge, and for a very good reason:

A lifetime dream comes true. ;) I bet it took a lot of convincing to the higher-ups at The Walt Disney Company, considering ESPN began televising the first and second rounds since 2003 with Scott Van Pelt doing such a masterful job year in and year out.

Still, I found this story to be quite fascinating.
