Linda & Karen "Bowling Moms"
TheBayAreaGuy:
The Bowling Moms should've definitely been asked to return at some point. Such a shame that production chooses to ignore pre-S12 teams.
georgiapeach:
Or perhaps they were asked and refused. They went off social media for a long time.

Nah, I remember clearly they weren't one of five teams not chosen that were on Phil's list for the real All-Stars in 2007.
Bertram also said that they didn't choose anyone pre-S12 for "Unfinished Business" b/c "fans won't remember that far back" (lame exuse) and for fake All-Stars (S24) they clearly showed recency bias again.
EAOWadsy:
They definitely should have been selected to return, and they still can yet, if the producers don't just go for people between seasons 25-29. The Bowling Mums were and are still a huge inspiration to the world - they made it so far in the race; 12 legs, they survived being the first team ever to receive a penalty for finishing last in a non-elimination round, had a dodgy taxi driver assist them on their way out of Dubai in the ninth leg, helped each other through thick and thin and so much more. The moment that I knew Colin & Christie had beaten them to the El Nido pit stop, I was so upset even with tears. Most without a doubt, one of the saddest eliminations in the history of The Amazing Race.
