2021 – Week Eleven

Happy 4^th of July to everyone!

Since this is a Holiday weekend… this week’s version of the Blog will be a shortened one.

The MLB All-Star Game is next week, and the All-Star rosters have been announced… so in sticking with that theme, here is the GCCGL All-Star Roster. For the purposes of this, I’m simply awarding (1) player from each class (1 A, 1 B, 1 C and 1 D). Based on this season’s performances, this team would dominate any scramble.

D Player – Ben Leininger… aka “Dahm”

Most people probably only know Dahm as the man that started the GCCGL’s version of the feud, but if you think that’s all Dahm as done this season, then you’re not paying attention.

He’s tied for 1^st in Wins… tied for 2^nd in Winning Percentage at 75% and he 2^nd in Points with 46.

He’s the current favorite to win Rookie of the Year.

C Player – Mike Ethridge… aka “Swiper”

Your 2020 Points Leader, 2020 Wins Leader, 2020 Money Leader and 2020 MVP has not fallen off like some predicted. Swiper simply continues to dominate the competition. He’s in the Top 5 in most statistical categories including, Wins, Winning Percentage and Points per Match, and along with Mike Morell has Jerry’s Kids in 1^st place through the first half of the season.

B Player – Mike Morell… aka “Meat”

Currently the Best Player on the Best Team. Meat is tearing through the league like a well-seasoned ribeye. He’s dominating all the statistical categories that matter. He’s 1^st in points. He’s tied for 1^st in wins. He’s tied for 2^nd in Winning Percentage at 75% and he’s currently in 3^rd in Points per Match.

Expect even bigger things in the 2^nd half of the season as I believe he’s just now entering his prime.

Meat… It’s what’s for dinner.

A Player – Kurt Kreyling… aka “Lip Gloss”

Kurt is quietly putting together a monster season and as Dustined to Fail just 12 points out of 1st place.

Lip Gloss is leading the league in both Points per Match (6.5) and Winning Percentage (83.3%) and tied for 3^rd in Wins with 5. In fact, if he had been here for all 8 match play weeks, his stats might look even better. Kurt has ZERO losses on the season. The only thing Kurt has been bad at is picking his subs. For the 2 weeks Kurt missed his subs have 2 losses and have only managed 6.5 points.

Honorable Mentions:
Jim Allen (D)
Oliver Livermore (C)
Jason Nill (B)
Danny Roller (A)

T.W.I.G. Notes
The Pink Ball Scramble didn’t do enough to shake up the standings, but with Jerry’s Kids finishing last it did allow for several teams to close the gap a little bit.

Last week, only Dustined to Fail and the Rollin’ 60’s were within 25 points of Jerry’s Kids… but this week, Good if Joe Shows pulled within 21 and Aces Ventura pulled within 25.5

Current Standings:
Jerry’s Kids 237.5
Dustined to Fail 225.50
Rollin’ 60’s 222

This week we head back to the front of the Pioneer. Sorry for the short Blog. I will try to make it up next week.

As always, Golf is Hard. If it were easy, it would be called “your mom”.
