I believe in losing fair and square, and in that spirit: Please take Dechambeau out of your lineups, as he's just officially withdrawn.  

Bummer to not have him in there - always fun to watch, even when he's insufferable 😉

I am still looking at how I am going to come in 210th place. You laugh, but I actually came in last in a company March Madness pool and was even further back than originally thought because two of the owner's kids had their picks added after the pool started because he left them at home prior to tip-off of the first game. 😭

I know, but I have to claim my good performances while I can.  

Kind of like the time about 20 years ago, when I was halfway decent, and I truly mean halfway, not being humble..ha

I was playing in a Virgina vs Maryland Ryder Cup Style match.  I was a 13 that got matched up against a 1 from the other side.   Match Play.   I beat him straight up the first 3 holes--even without the strokes. I walked off hole 3 feeling pretty good about myself.    Yeah, I forgot it was 18 holes.  He proceeeded to wipe he floor with me by winning the next 9 holes to win 6&5 I think.

... I am usually much more frustrating as my picks generally do well so more of a "Who is the one player that will drag down my other 3?"  Somehow I seem to be able to pick the rough in the gem and 1 of my 4 performs poorly enough to keep me out of the running. 

 

... Zalatoris, Fleetwood and Woods did well, as predicted. But I got a text from Dustin Johnson and Scottie Scheffler that simply said "You just had to pick us, huh?"

Not Sunday night by a long way.  But on the spirit of striking while the iron (if not the putter) is hot.   I’ve taken the lead in the Moderator contest.   Which by the way is not even an actual competition.  Just something I made up 😬

 

moved up to 8th overall!
