So what I'm reading here is that I can go ahead and grab Phil the Thrill Mickelson here, right? And then switch if the rain don't come? :banana: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted June 12, 2017 i sincerely hope that is not within the rules or he would have been my 4.08 pick A true fan wouldn't have let him slide to me in the 5th here before this question was posed. I was already thinking of grabbing him in the 6th just for fun.....but Ed's premature ruling made me think he was having the same thought....so now we have to address it....as I'm thinking the rain is going to help him out. Plus rumor is his daughter may have failed her science test. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus rumor is his daughter may have failed her science test. i was under the assumption the a re-do because of a withdraw was for random withdraw.. events not planned. Mickelson is planning to miss the event. unless XY and Z all happen meh, take him. i'll cheer for you to win if he somehow makes it. I'd be very happy.

You can draft him if you wish. you won't know by 7:45 EST Thursday whether or not he is playing. You'll be stuck with him whether he plays or not Re-read what I wrote.

You'll be stuck with him whether he plays or not Re-read what I wrote. The rain is supposed to come in the morning. So I feel like there is a 50/50 shot of Phil seeing that and announcing his intent before 7:45 EST. If he bails, I can switch, right? Most importantly, I appreciate us having this discussion before the fair weather Phil fans like WW get back on the clock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 12, 2017 it's a good gamble. Um, not sure I agree with that.. With a major on the line, and the hardest one to make the cut in on top of that - you need all the bullets you can get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfalcon 824 Posted June 12, 2017 The graduation unexpectedly being moved up 2 hours.....a sketchy rain delay with Ian Poulter fuming on twitter that this would never have been done for a Euro....a satellite tracker of Phil's plane, just like the Santa tracker on 12/24.....Experts analyzing the wind direction and what that means for his jet.....police escort from the airport to the first tee........and Phil not even taking any warm up swings or ever having seen the course, finishing off the career grand slam. And some loser named Ty Hatton double bogeys the 72nd hole to give me a 1 stroke win in the battle for Golf King of America Ed Cup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted June 12, 2017 Thursday, June 15 High: 87 | Low: 64 60 percent chance of precipitation | Wind: W at 11 mph Scattered thunderstorms in the morning, then partly cloudy late Oh my. I've been doing some research and this forecast is almost identical to that just a few days before the 3rd round of the 2002 British Open. Looks dire.

You, like I, respect Phil's game and ambassadorship to the sport. We value such things over trendy picks like Ross Fisher or David Hearn. In short, we are his true fans and history will remember us as such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted June 12, 2017 I had no idea he had a tee time. In fairness to you Ed, he isn't your favorite golfer. So it likely wouldn't have occurred to you to check if he had a tee time and look into if you could draft him.....like I did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
