Looking for a sub if anyone is interested!

put me in COMMISH, the arm is LOOSE

@Cswartz , I grabbed your sub spot.

Ready to pepper the strikezone as the relief commish and hopefully avoid the 500th blown save of the year for Chicago teams

Alright lads, welcome to Joba Chamberlain week. Joba couldn’t cut it as a starter and I couldn’t cut it as a full time member, but happily taking the reins as relief commish.

As I’ll be in Canada next week scouting royal montreal, we’ll be doing standard sunday singles in honor of the prez cup. no strokes because of course the President’s Cup is Real Golf.

5:17am
@HackMarkham v @TheAbeFroman
myself v @Ballgame (a strokeless rematch of my WD lol, prolly will go the same way)

5:24am

Hey all, I’ll need a sub for Thursday as well if there’s another taker?

Is it red tee week tomorrow? My Google drive is acting up and can’t check the schedule …

I’ll take it

it is not, though could be persuaded to throw a curve and make it red tee week again if we have consensus

When I just looked at the sub sheet it said that it was.

I’m definitely wrong. It is RED TEE WEEK. even more Canadian pride

We took a week off, maybe save red tee week for when we’re needing another “off/variety” week?

I think I gotta go by the Commish’s schedule, otherwise I might get DFA’d*

So we’ll go Red Tees this week. A good return for those who haven’t swung it particularly well as of recent (me)

Red Tees to me are like facing Tim Wakefield instead of Pedro Martinez.

Wake up thinking I’m glad it’s not Pedro, plan to have an awesome multi-hit (birdie) day, but ultimately still go down swinging hard at the ol’ wobbler.

Lost 2&1 to @ChiFFI’s 1 under 35
39 for me with 0% FIRs (-2 quota)

Totally forgot to pay up though … you prefer cash next week or Venmo now?

We can wait for hard goods and a firm handshake.

For the life of me I can’t remember what shot led me to bogey #1 … It’s going to drive me crazy all day if I can’t remember lol

Not that it makes a difference given I still missed quota, am nowhere near playoffs, and still would’ve lost the match, but for my personal score & stat keeping and sanity, do either @ChiFFI, @Mr.Sunday, or @AvgRandy remember what I’m missing?

  1. Driver hit left of left green-side bunker
  2. 60* from ~40 yds to either:
    a) right rough just short of green OR
    b) ???
  3. ??? OR 60* chip from front right rough to 2ft
  4. Gimmie (Par OR Bogey)

Idk if it’s my brain still running on pacific time, suppressed the memory of the bad shot, or was thinking my 2nd was my 3rd as I’d normally only be in that spot after my second from the blue tees. Definitely remember ‘feeling’ as if I bogeyed and saying I bogeyed to the group after finishing the hole. Memory is fading …
