Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 7, 2018 Prolly gonna regret this but... 1.04 Rickie Fowler Fowler is custom made to win PGAs... I'm shocked he doesn't have 1 (if not 2) already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dain11279 935 Posted August 7, 2018 Fowler is custom made to win PGAs... I'm shocked he doesn't have 1 (if not 2) already. I'm a big Rickie guy but even I see he has trouble with the pressure on the weekends. Personally I think he's highly overrated (only 4 wins) but one of these weeks the little focker is gonna put 4 rounds together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Reed stumbles at all down the stretch, Rickie wins it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be too much to ask, but even if we could just get his first pick somehow...at least that puts us in better position tomorrow to finish out. Depends on what he's dealing with, of course.

It baffles me somebody who rolls it like he does hasn't won a major yet - especially this one. If Couples or DLIII had putted like Fowler, they would have won 8 majors.

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 7, 2018 It's been over 40 minutes since I text Ed, no response.. Given the unusual circumstances surrounding this - I think it's safe to assume he's way out of pocket and not returning any time soon. Perhaps we need a contingency plan - suggestions? Maybe just draft him the highest player on the odds board? Skip him till he returns? Rat's ass? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe just draft him the highest player on the odds board? Skip him till he returns? Rat's ass? I'd say wait til noon ET and then give him the highest guy odds-wise for his turn. Then maybe he'll show up sometime today. I think if we try to scramble and get it all done tomorrow were asking for trouble. We at the very least should draft him a team since he has all the money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KSB2424 3,087 Posted August 7, 2018 I would suggest the following: Somebody volunteer (who is mathematically eliminated from the SpedEx and doesn't draft right beside them) to pick the highest player still available on an odds sheet. For both Ed and Pat. If Pat can send a list to that person, fantastic. If either show up, even better. Whatchathink? ETA: The reason I say this is to try to nip any future issues in the bud. There are many different gambling Odd's listings and many times multiple players have the same odds. So just picking the next guy on the list may not be as cut and dry as it seems. Also it gets sort of squirrelly if I was picking for Ed for instance but I had the very next pick. Know what I mean? Just trying to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even in this scenario, there's still an element of subjectivity... .With the odds sheet, it is what it is - black and white. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which odds sheet (there are many gambling sites)? What if two, three, four players are all 20-1 for example? I agree with you, I'm thinking of potential issues down the line.......is all.

dain11279 935 Posted August 7, 2018 Which odds sheet (there are many gambling sites)? What if two, three, four players are both 20-1 for example? If we use the odds that I'm looking at (my bookie uses a website on the net) and there's 2 or more guys that are the same odds I'll just go from top to bottom to select them. Easy peasy.

Easy peasy. Cool with me. So we are using Dain's odd's and if tied it's prolly just alphabetic order. In other words, Dain is the volunteer I was saying in my suggestion.

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 7, 2018 The odds are pretty much the same across the board - just varying formats. This works for me unless there's another the group would rather have: http://www.vegasinsider.com/golf/odds/futures/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KSB2424 3,087 Posted August 7, 2018 I'm honestly down for however we want to do it. In fairness to not only us, but both Ed and Pat too we just need to come up with something that is: 1. Transparent 2. Consistent I'm good with however y'all wanna roll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doesn't matter to me either, I can't link the odds to here because you need an account to view them so Ed would be getting his team at my word (I'd obviously never screw him over) We can use Cruzer's too, they're gonna be pretty close either way.

dain11279 935 Posted August 7, 2018 Cruz do you got Pat's number? Maybe shoot him a text when it's getting close to his turn so he can at least pick? Even though he says he has shoddy service. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 7, 2018 On behalf of the board, I will make Ed's pick.. I'm sure he will understand and appreciate the group's collective effort to move this along - as fairly as possible. Based on the values here, I will make his pick. http://www.vegasinsider.com/golf/odds/futures/ 1.06 Brooks Koepka (for Ed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,248 Posted August 7, 2018 I actually thought someone had better odds but I obviously wasn't using that site and like KSB said there's going to be different odds at different sites so as long as we stay consistent then that works for me as far as Ed's pics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
