Chuck Reckers reports that there are still 8 outstanding on league fees. For those that owe 2nd half fee is
$148.50, remember to bring next week.
Pouches will be in the briefcase to put checks in (payable to IRS Golf
League). Chuck thanks those that are
paid in full. Questions concerning the
fees please contact Chuck at email: cmjrecke@gmail.com.
This
week we had 8 subs: Carol Goldstone (for
Team Patmann), Kelly Johnson (for Team Halpin, Bob Kendrach (for Team Halpin),
Steve Ruehl (for Team Bramlage), Don (Paladin) Bazsika (for Team Buescher),
Larry Oliver (for Team Breen), and new subs Brian Kelly (for Team Anderson),
Tim Jahnke (for Team Slye). Thanks for
being there.
Good rounds this
week were:
Front – Ray Vaughn – 36, Mark Halpin
– 39.
Back
– Mark Slye – 36, Boyd Marley – 39.
Match of the Weak:
This
week I would have to say the match between my team, Team Halpin vs. Team
Schumacher. We mixed up the line-up this
week, had A & C players go out together and B & D players go out. Seems both opposing team captains rode in the
same cart, while the other cart had husband & wife (opposing teams) highly
not recommended. Seems
the League President and League Secretary played together for the first time and
maybe last time. Only one
assassination attempt on the president, but that can’t be proven. I will say if you ever ride with Col. Schu
watch when he gets out of the cart on a hill and says he forgot to put the
brake on while you are still in the cart.
Outcome of the match was not good for Team Halpin (the presidential
powers excelled).
From
Mr. Feldman for Next Week: What is worse
a Slye Breen, or a Leirey Halpin. My
answer: only what Harms Anderson.
Sandbaggers of the Weak: (5.0
greater or less):
Most Under
Average:
Ed
Kiffmeyer shoots 41 (8.7 under average), Mark Halpin shoots 39 (5.4 under
average), Tim Feldman shoots 42 (5.3 under average), Eddie Gregory shoots 42
(5.3 under average).
Most Over
Average:
Eric
Fredrickson shoots 55 (7.6 over average), Frank Leirey shoots 51 (7.1 over
average), Charlie (I made the newsletter again) Halpin shoots 53 (5.3 over
average), Lori Johnson shoots 61 (5.0 over average).
Status of the
Almighty Fork:
Week 6 - Team Schumacher.
Week 9 – Team Freeman, Team Patmann,
Team Breen.
More
will be added after position round 2, maybe.
Division
Standings:
o
Division
A sees defending Champs Team Bramlage still holding the lead but dropping to 4th
Seed. Team Kiffmeyer closed the gap,
13.5 out. Team Schumacher (after a big
win might be showing some life, but still Forked). Team Patmann brings in 4th and only
95 points from the division lead.
o
Division
B has Team Pfeiffer starting to make a run and gaining a lead and taking over
#3 Seed. Team Kientz, Team Flynn, and
Team Buescher are slowly dropping. (Now
there are 72.5 points separating them.).
o
Division
C has Team Harms still in the lead and #1 Seed.
Team Anderson (the Shirts) hold #5 Seed and are
only 1.5 points out. Team Vaughn brings
in 3rd and picked up ground on the seeded positions. Team Freeman brings in 4th and gained
back their spot at the top of the upside down league points list.
o
Division
D has Team Leirey taking the lead and #2 seed.
Team Halpin falls to 2nd place and #6 Seed and 9.5 points out
of the lead. Team Slye brings in 3rd
and is still closing in on the lead (58.5 out).
Team Breen comes in 4th.

Position Round
Predictions:
Division
A:
·
Team
Bramlage vs. Team Kiffmeyer: I predict
Team Kiffmeyer will finally take the lead from Defending Champs Team Bramlage
and we will see Mr. Ed Kiffmeyer dancing on the clubhouse tables as Mr.
Ackerman, Warren, & Gindele sing.
·
Team
Schumacher vs. Team Patmann: I predict
Team Patmann as the winner as Mr. Bill (complaint committee) Zachritz returns
and drives the League President crazy on the course and the informant goes
silent.
Division
B:
·
Team
Pfeiffer vs. Team Kientz: my prediction
is that Team Pfeiffer will continue to expand their lead (and get the recap
correct) and send Team Kientz to the division cellar.
·
Team
Flynn vs. Team Buescher should be a split as they both move up a position as
Team Kientz moves down.
Division
C:
·
Team
Harms vs. Team Anderson (the shirts): I
see Team Harms taking a big win as Mr. Mike Sullivan starts another win streak
and Team Anderson gets their shirts mixed up and drop to 3rd place
and out of seeding.
·
Team
Vaughn vs. Team Freeman: should see Team
Vaughn making sure that Team Freeman keeps their place on the upside down list
and Team Vaughn takes over 2nd place and 6th seed.
Division
D:
·
Team
Leirey vs. Team Halpin: I am sort of
partial on this but with Jimmy Smith and Rafael Gonzalez back my prediction is
Team Halpin destroys Team Leirey (sorry Frank) and takes the division lead
back.
·
Team
Slye vs. Team Breen: I will call a split
here as Mr. Skin Slye and Mr. Greenie Bachmann both shoot 53 instead of 35 and the
Mr. Breen’s both shoot 35 instead of 53.
Heard in the
Clubhouse:
What was that Mr. Dale (Long Putt) Goodwin missing the long putt, Mr. Mike Donlin smiling, and
Mr. Dale Schaber making the long putt on #9.
Question for the Weak/Thoughts to Ponder:
League
President Col. Tom Schu had the following questions: (Send answers to the Col.)
What?
When?
Where?
Never
mind these questions since I was filling in the space until I get the real
questions.
