Incessant pestering??? I asked one hard question and made one reasonable request which led to better suggestion for the tournaments going forward...best 3 out of 5. I don't think that is incessant pestering.....besides we both know folks on this forum that incessant pestering by them just means they like you :lol:
Nothing ever said is reasonable on here. :lol: The live leaderboard does make this an amazingly addictive contest. Even with the 12 shot lead we'll all still be checking in tomorrow, Justin Case (who is a mate of mine).

Geez, I was tied for the second best score of the day, a solid -3, but still dragging my sorry ass in the rough in 8th place. If it wasn't for by sub pick, Canadian Corey Conners, I'd even be worse off.
Bil........"shorty"........you da man! Great team you assembled. You may set the forum course record.
There was a minor error in the formula for the "today" score that briefly popped up whilst I was adding the second tiebreaker formula - its now corrected on my earlier post and on the scoreboard

Today's scores
-9 Bil522
-3 mostonmike
-1 D-train
-1 rockycola
-1 desbcoach

Oh, kick a man when he's down, Mike.
Is that the English way? :lol: :lol: :lol:
Nah, just kidding. Fabulous job!

Its all over but the crying. Bill's basically the Secretariat of the Masters. All over but the crying for the rest of us.
I was at Longacres in the late 80's, I really liked this horse at 18-1 so I bet all I had at the time $150 to win. Horse builds a steadily increasing lead until he is 15 lengths in front a sixteenth of a mile from the wire, when all of sudden the jockey "falls"...coughs...cough jumps cough....off the horse and the 2/5 favorite wins.

Lesson i learned....My chickens may come home to roost, but only if they sneak around to the back door and not use the front.
Longacres! Loved that place. Mid-70s at MIHS second semester of my senior year we would blow off our last class, do speed and weed and go make pony bets in the afternoon. They didn't even check ID.

Of all the goofy words you losers of the revolutionary war came up with whilst is by far my favorite. Spans from New Zealand to South Africa to Australia. A word that has traveled thousands of miles. Love you brother. We are blessed to have you on the America First bad baseball team forum.

You leave whilst alone, mister. My mum's Aussie and her family goes back about 200 years there. Whilst usage is not a crime, even if it came from England, Middle English, Chaucer shit.

Great job on this MM. So much time put into it.
I really appreciate your efforts in doing this.

Now, I do think we need to have some discussion on changing a few rules.
1. Some scoring adjustments..... -5 strokes for every player you get into the weekend. Then it would actually make people think about who they are choosing rather than take Scheffler and a couple -20 people so they can readjust for the weekend.

or

2. If your player doesn't make the weekend, there should be more of a penalty than just strokes gained.

I would propose either of these changes because the intent is to split your $100 into a team that will compete and possibly win, not a means of "playing the system.
