FFB Highland was my first time meeting you fine folks and I have -mostly- no regrets.

Highland was also my first true NSU event. Had done Cornstalk but that’s so many roosts it’s not quite the same.

The patio beers were tremendous afterwards.

I’ve brought this up like 40 separate times in conversation and forgot about it here :joy: unreal stuff.

@Battisstatus as FFB Draft Tsar, does the fact that most playings of the contest have been absolute beat downs concern you at all?

Adding on to that, from your perspective as attorney general, what can be done about the rampant handicap manipulation across NSU before FF6?

I have thought about it a little. Wondering the draft strategies that were used.

Could possibly adjust how it works

I’m hearing ā€œpod systemā€

I mean…as the defending captain, it could bee blind luck, or the fact I put in the last two years and sacrificed my own competitive play to make my team great. I was fluffing pillows, making sure families were taken care of, fluffing other things, all to make sure my team was set up for success.

Editors note: it was pure luck. But captaining last year was a true honor, and seeing 48 sickos hiking around Gross in jerseys was a blessed sight.

Highland FFB was my first and beers on the patio were incredible. @otafukusauce and I are now 2-0 together and are becoming the Rory/Fleetwood of the FF

Currently have 24 players signed up.

12 vs 12

I could pick teams and let captains (TBA) select the orders?

Wouldn’t be a bad thing to try something new!

And even if it’s a quiet coalition of people, I’m totally wearing another jersey @bignanski

I was in the group with @SBST when he made that albatross! Not only was that going to be my memory, but also that FFB was the first time I was the low handicap in the foursome. I didn’t like it. But @freesypop and I still got a hard fought point.

would just like to say. big fan of @Worst12onEarth. met him at the barstool Ope. was not having a great time, game was absolutely in the shitter. but when we ganged up for 8somes worst12 was a beacon of joy with jokes and banter that made the back 9 at lawsonia tolerable in my poor playing state.

tyfys and also. get me in this foursome (TBA) caps!

I appreciate the kind words. I’m an acquired taste, so it’s good to know some folks enjoy my company.

Very excited to make the trip for this year’s FFB
