KREYLING KORNER – WEEK #9 – 06/18/15
THE LIPSMACKER MATCH OF THE WEEK
We have 6 subs and a match that was agreed to be split – so the MOWs this week are a little hard to call. That doesn’t mean I won’t give you dedicated readers of the Kreyling Korner something to consider.
A/B Group – Joe “Boot Boy” vs. Mitch “Prince Albert” Smith. Cupcake is out this week so I don’t have any stats to back up any of my choices this week. But what I can tell you is this – shenanigans could very well ensue in this match. I have it on good authority that Joe pulled some serious strings for Mitch this week – all in an effort to satisfy one of Mitch’s customers. And in return, Joe is asking Mitch to lie down… We have separation of Church and State…why can’t we have separation of Work and Golf? At the end of the day – I believe Mitch keeps his moral integrity (ummmm…yeah I said Mitch has moral integrity) and takes this one 6.5 – 3.5.
C/D Group – John “Syndrome” Rayburn vs. Seth Brooks (I don’t know if Seth has a nickname yet or not). I looked back, and I don’t think Seth has ever played with John – which is why this is interesting. You know – Seth is a cool dude. Really laid back…almost quiet. Syndrome, well he is Syndrome. On paper you would think Seth takes this match easy. But who knows what is going to happen when Syndrome starts talking about colored breakfast foods or high school golf teams…Seth could easily be rattled. Or laugh his head off like most of us do. I think this one is going to be a nail bitter – Seth wins 5.5-4.5.
THE KREYLING KORNER
Since the last Kreyling Korner, me and co-commissioner Cupcake made a visit to the Memorial tournament in Dublin, Ohio. What always amazes me, besides how good professional golfers really are, is all the extras on the PGA tour. For instance, on every tee there is a Marshall, standing with paddles, to point the direction a tee shot is going. Then, there is a spotter in the fairway actually watching for the ball based on the direction of the paddles. It’s no wonder these guys never lose balls. And don’t say pros don’t hit balls that bad…has anyone watched Tiger lately.
That being said, I got to wondering what the tee marshal’s would do in our league. Without further ado, here are some Marshall paddle signs for the GCCGL.
Let’s face it – none of us are consistent on every shot. And when we hit bad shots…we hit real bad shots. Wouldn’t it be nice to know right off the tee box your ball is so far in the woods you have no shot of finding it…
Four putts do happen – and they are not rare in the GCCGL. Quite frankly they hurt your pride. Why not have a Marshall rub it in a little more?
This never happens in the GCCGL. Nope. Never. Not because we are all stand-up gentlemen…more because the beer cart girls NEVER COME AROUND! Seriously – stop asking me if I want anything on the first tee. I filled up at the clubhouse…come see me on the 6th hole! #salty
Yup – this pretty much sums it up. If you hang around after the round…you know what the GCCGL is really about.
Until next week – fairways and greens my friends.
