cbfalcon 824 Posted June 13, 2017 Myself, Dainer and Pat are in for the Hole in One. please state your intentions if you wish to be in. you can pay now or next tourney I'll be sending $30 your way tonight or tomorrow. I'm in whatever that gets me into, as I don't tend to know what I'm paying for. When I know I owe people money for something and they then tell me what I owe, if no huge alarms are sounded I just pay it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 13, 2017 I forgot about Strange, he's ok. Other then that CBS has the monopoly on it. I like Tirico too. ABC was outstanding at doing the British Open - they're coverage was top notch... NBC's is pretty good now in that spot, but not the same - but still solid.

We are doing a hole in one pool. if a drafted golfer gets a hole in one, he wins the pool. could be a while, could add up. might be nice.

DankNuggs 305 Posted June 13, 2017 If you believe the stat that a hole in one is a 1:2500 chance. If you assumed all our players made the cut and played 4 rounds for the 6 edex tournaments, and we have 9 people in edex it should happen once a year if my math is right. Now you'd have to factor in MC which would push it out a bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted June 13, 2017 3 Guys I wanted to draft but ran out of picks and decided on Fleetwood. .. Peter Uihlein Ross Fisher and Russell Henley... oh and David lingmerth as well which means those guys are all locks for good finishes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 13, 2017 Peter Uihlein I had his named typed in more than once, just couldn't pull the trigger... He's only played in 1 Open here, back in 2011 (mc) - as a kid. But I still wanted to. Once the rain became such a big player, I wanted to draft Bubba too. But I just couldn't do it - he's such a putting head case right now............. Prolly regret not taking both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 14, 2017 he (like Spieth) also played Erin Hills in the US Am, i believe. Yea, there are actually like 8 or so that did as well - Koepka and J. Thomas among them... It might help with sight lines, but almost all of them said the don't remember much, not even the holes. They also played it really dried out - certainly like nothing we'll see this week.

patweisers44 697 Posted June 14, 2017 So I have heads up bets with: Ed ($5 per shot, capped at $50) Cruzer (Golf Shirt from me versus "Something of local flare"...I hope he means a date with his sister...LOL) Anyone else wanna show some faith in their team? BTW....j/k Cruz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WW and Dain in the second tier. Not sure about his team, but I'm starting to like Rory more and more... Even though I wanted nothing to do with him at 3, the weather is playing heavy into his favor... And as we all know - Rory shines when rain and majors collide. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 14, 2017 Phil's chances are looking slimmer and slimmer.. Rain chances for Thursday have dropped to 10%... But Friday and Saturday look ugly. 60% chance Fri., 90% chance Sat... Sunday could be a 36 marathon, just like the old days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Friday and Saturday look ugly. 60% chance Fri., 90% chance Sat... Sunday could be a 36 marathon, just like the old days. USGA Meteorologist on Thursday morning at 7am: "We are aware of what the other weather models are predicting, but we have the best system in the world and it shows a high probability of snow and lightning occurring around 10am. With so many lives at stake, we simply decided to clear the course and reevaluate in a few hours. It's always better to be safe than sorry." Not sure about his team, but I'm starting to like Rory more and more... Even though I wanted nothing to do with him at 3, the weather is playing heavy into his favor... And as we all know - Rory shines when rain and majors collide. Besides Phil, Rory is my favorite guy to watch. So while the fan in me was thrilled to grab him at 4, I'd have taken DJ, Spieth, or Day over him I think. And if I were betting my car, I'd have likely taken Rahm or Fowler ahead of him. But it was close enough for me to justify going with the fun pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted June 14, 2017 Besides Phil, Rory is my favorite guy to watch. I think Rory has one of the top 10 best swings of All Time - and that's saying something considering the pool there.. His speed and balance are incredible - never tire of watching him hit balls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfalcon 824 Posted June 15, 2017 If the Thrill withdrawals before we start up, I'll go with Henley. That said, the weather looks pretty iffy. The tour probably needs to hold off and play it safe here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted June 15, 2017 Technically I was under the impression that Ed stipulated any WD now had to occur before ANYONE teed off. If that's the case it looks like Phil WD about 20 minutes late for current SpedEx Cup purposes, and I'd be more than ok with him honoring my championship roster.
