2020 – I Could See the Foam or A League of Gentlemen?
People often get frustrated with news reports that change as more information becomes available or when a story takes a turn because it is ongoing. Thursday night until Friday when GCCGL scores were released is a perfect example.
My initial title for this week’s blog was I Could See the Foam…the weakest protest I have ever heard but words that were sure to provoke some juvenile sex related joke from my immature brain when I finally got around to typing. Alas, the beer and wings followed by cabernet and chocolate chips did me in and instead of waking up at 2 like PW after late beers, I awoke at 2 from my slumber on the couch watching Parks and Rec and went to bed. But I still managed to email myself some quotes from the birdie that might not have been a birdie.
But then the scores came out and the birdie was gone. Damn, now I have to start from scratch. There was some tempting discussion regarding a grading scale for male members that I think was promulgated by the ***F in the group but I couldn’t remember the whole thing so that was out. I’ll just summarize that P is smaller than B** and there are sizes in-between. Apparently.
Anyways, back to the disappearing birdie. This reporter knows none of the details and is too lazy to seek them out but I do know that the guy that has to be the most universally liked person in the league retains that title because he accepted that which was clearly not black and white but nonetheless a general consensus had clearly formed.
Cuzn Joe is a true gentleman. And everyone of us owes him a beer for doing the “right” thing. Although I think he drinks that girlie seltzer crap. Buy him one of those.
Other than the downpour and lightning at the start, it was a great night for golf. I’m sill not sure I like the Stableford. A standings scrambler is always funny and interesting, but I don’t know if it accurately reflects a good team, yet it can have outsize impact on the season score. Sort of like having an NFL team play arena football one week as part of the season.
On the other hand, even though there was quite a bit of movement this year, the top 3 teams are still only separated by 7 points. And the Carole Baskin curse is still haunting the Cupcake Exotics. I still like Lip Gloss’ shirts, though. Maybe if the rest of his team would commit, they could see some success. Get busy livin’ or get busy dyin’. Wear the shirt!
