Week
10 – June 20, 2018
Reminder
that 2nd half green fees/dues are due by June 27. Pouches will be in the briefcase to put
remittance in. Make checks payable to
IRS Golf League. Treasurer Chuck Reckers
thanks those that paid this past week.
Subs
this week were: Jim Conrady (Team
Leirey), Dan Varndell (Team Breen), Greg Arkle (Team Harms), and Jeff Barnhorst
(Team Schumacher). Thanks for being
there.
There
were 3 Eagles this past week. Congratulations
go to John Freeman – Eagle on #4, Jeff Elsbernd – Eagle on #14, and Kevin
Bachmann – Eagle on #14. This year has
seen the most Eagles for our league in recent history, and all have been from
the White tees.
Division
Standings:
Division A: There was no change is positions with Team Anderson still in the lead but dropping to #4 Seed, followed by Team Bramlage, Team Kientz, and Team Leirey. (1st to 4th narrowed to 68.5 points.)
Division B: There was no change in positions with Team Slye
still in the lead and moving up to #3 Seed, followed by Team Kiffmeyer, Team
Vaughn, and Team Harms. See Status of
the Almighty Fork.
Division C: Big change here as Team Flynn moves up to 1st
and top in league points and the #1 Seed.
Team Schumacher (now #5 Seed) falls to 2nd and is now the #5
Seed. They are followed by Team Halpin moving
to #6 Seed, and Team Pfeiffer (on a winning streak). After Team Pfeiffer’s big win and Team
Schumacher’s big loss only 120 points separate 1st to 4th.
Division D: No change in positions here as Team Freeman (#2
Seed) is still holding 1st, followed by Team Buescher (fell out of Seed),
Team Breen, and Team Patmann. (Now 93 points
separate 1st to 4th.)
Status of the Almighty Fork:
Seems like it is
time to use the Fork. Some folks were
hoping that Team Halpin would get Forked first but after winning and moving up to
6th Seed they avoided the Fork.
However, after looking at this past week’s performance two teams are now
being the first to be Forked. Earning
the Fork is Team Harms (bottom of the points list) and Team Vaughn (next to the
bottom of the points list).
Week 10

And from Mr.
Kiffmeyer from Mr. Clark the following short story:
Poor Fred!!!
An Arizona Highway
Patrol officer stops a Harley for traveling faster than the posted speed limit,
so he asks the biker his name.
'Fred,' he replies.
'Fred what?' the officer asks.
'Just Fred,' the man responds.
The officer is in a good mood, thinks he might just give the biker a break, and
write him out a warning instead of a ticket. The officer then presses him for
the last name.
The man tells him that he used to have a last name but lost it.
The officer thinks that he has a nut case on his hands but plays along with it.
'Tell me, Fred, how did you lose your last name?'
The biker replies, 'It's a long story, so stay with me.' I was born Fred
Johnson. I studied hard and got good grades. When I got older, I realized that
I wanted to be a doctor. I went through college, medical school, internship,
residency, and finally got my degree, so I was Fred Johnson, MD. After a while
I got bored being a doctor, so I decided to go back to school. Dentistry was my
dream! Got all the way through School, got my degree, so then I was Fred
Johnson, MD, DDS. Got bored doing dentistry, so I started fooling around with
my assistant and she gave me VD, so now I was Fred Johnson, MD, DDS, with VD.
Well, the ADA found out about the VD, so they took away my DDS. Then I was Fred
Johnson, MD, with VD. Then the AMA found out about the ADA taking away my DDS
because of the VD, so they took away my MD leaving me as Fred Johnson with VD.
Then the VD took away my Johnson, so now I am Just Fred.'
The officer walked away in tears, laughing.
Heard in the
Clubhouse:
·
Get
well to Mike Breen. Down for a few weeks
with a knee repair.
·
For
the 2nd week in a row Team Kientz has tied score with their
opponents. Not sure if this has happened
before. At the rate that they are going
seems like they are at a standstill.
·
Jim
Hill received the Muscle Man Award Trophy with the remnants of his 9 iron.
·
Secretary
with his baseball bat putter was able to beat Team Kiffmeyer without using it.
·
Sherrill
Swann losing her 1st match of the year. You need a week off.
