Week
7 – May 30, 2018
Lucky
day on the course as we dodged the bad weather.
There were some pretty good rounds and lots of Birdies and Pars. Congratulations to Mark Halpin on his Eagle
on #14. Last league Eagle was June
2016. Mark’s previous league Eagle was
in June of 2014.
Subs
this week were: Greg Arkle (Team Harms),
Dave Spaeth (Team Breen), Carol Goldstone (Team Patmann), Don Bazsika (Team
Slye), Jeff Witt & Bob Kendrach (Team Halpin), Mike Schwarberg (Team Bramlage),
and Kelly Johnson (Team Leirey).
We
had one no-show this week. A sub did not
show up and nothing was said of why not there.
Please give your subs yours or my contact number in case something comes
up, so we can attempt to replace the sub.
The
retirement card/gift card was given to Terry Jolly this past week. He was
so very thankful and wanted to thank everyone in our league.
Division
Standings:
Division A has Team Anderson taking the lead but only by a small margin. (1st to 4th only separated by 72 points.)
Division B has Team Slye
barely holding their lead after another big loss (sub no-show). (69.5 points separate 1st to 4th.)
Division C has Team
Schumacher still in the lead and also on the top of
the league points list). (203.5 points
separate 1st to 4th.)
Team Pfeiffer is not out of it yet as they had their biggest win of the
year.
Division D has Team Freeman
jumping to the lead, closely followed by Team Breen and Team Buescher (7 points
out). (48.5 points separate 1st
to 4th.)
Status of the Almighty Fork:
Week 7 and no one
forked yet as Team Schumacher doesn’t need any motivation. Team Pfeiffer again saved themselves from the
Fork as they came in with their biggest win of the year and could be attempting
a big comeback. However, Team Pfeiffer remains
on notice.
Sandbaggers of the Weak: (5.0 greater or less):
Most Improved:
Bob
Kendrach shoots a 42 (8.7 under average). (awesome).

Heard in the
Clubhouse:
Mark
Halpin after driving the green on #14 from the white tees and making a 20+ foot
putt for Eagle: “I
couldn’t have done that from the forward tees.”
Lori
Johnson excited about getting her 1st Birdie. Congratulations and may you get many more.
Weakly Thoughts
from Mr. Feldman:
Didn’t
get any thoughts this week but I did get words of wisdumb
while out on the course. Thank you Mr. Feldman for watching me play such a painful round
and keeping me from pushing the launch button.

Secretary Charlie Halpin
Fine
Print: Recommendation from League
Secretary: When someone had a horrible
round, don’t rub it in on them. All the
loser does is lose respect for that butt of a person. Thought for this is the winner of the match
is sometimes a loser person. Don’t ever
piss off the person holding the launch button.
