WEEK 9 UPDATE: Results from July 7, 2022 By: Snapper (Posted: 7/14)

Weekly Cudos:

Low Actual: Starnes & Romo “38”
Low Net: Nick Cooper “33”
Greenies 1: Nick Cooper
Greenies 2: Scott Gregory
Team Skin: Carrier/Ford
5-Hole: Steve Markunas
AOTD: SnapDaddy

Birdies???: there were only 5 this week Matt Murany , Wolf, Coop  and 2 for Nick…Matt didnt play Jamie’s game and Wolf  & Larry each cut 1 of Nick’s but not both… Nick win’s

JAMIES SCRATCH SKINS;   ?What did I just say?  Nick Cooper hole #7

LOW ACTUAL:  STARNES  & ROMO    “38” hey I saw you guys each threw out 7 pars for the 9 hole round….so that how you do it…..    LOW NET:  NICK COOPER  “33”

AOTD:  Rick Carlson:   a no brainer with out much thought (on the vote that is)  come to think of it no thought at all by Snapper as to what was required of him to attend golf league this week.   A nice leisurely 2 hour plus drive in traffic from home got Snapper to Crouse road ready to turn into the course lot….lets do our 1st ready check….Ready?….coffee?  check….bourbon for later?  Check….cigar for later?  Check…..tees ball marker and divot repair tool in pocket?    Shit!…..oh well….Golf Hat?   Double shit!!!!!…..Golf shoes? Shitshitshit…Golf clubs?  WTF!!!!!!!….who goes golfing without clubs…. Every excuse to this being considered and discarded by Snapper prior to the AOTD nomination almost became fruitless as no nomination came… Hey guys can I get a golf ball over here?   Silence…Further Solicitation from the other end of the balcony also brought Yawns (I see now how this league tradition is dying) finally someone mumbled a nomination… then an ambivalent 2nd and then Jamie comes to my defense come on he hasn’t been here in weeks… he probably took the clubs out to get the spider webs off… thankfully I got the ball & scorn on a narrow vote with nearly a quorum abstaining…

Congrats to Lillie, The latest Majestic Beer Babe of the Week!

GO SNAPPERS!

You’ve got to change your evil ways, baby

Today’s lyrical headline in honor of Carlos Santana. Play golf like Carlos plays guitar – until you pass out from heat exhaustion..

You’ve got me running and hiding, all over town
You’ve got me sneaking and peeping, and running you down
This can’t go on…

BEER BABE OF THE WEEK?:   AUDREY as nominated by TONY T with a nice pic of SNAPPER ON SABBATICAL DON SAVOIE…….

a little beer babe double exposure action on the iPad.

A little girl was at her first golf lesson when she asked an interesting question… 

Q: “Is the word spelled P-U-T or P-U-T-T?” She asked her instructor. 

A: “P-U-T-T is correct,” the instructor replied.  

“P-U-T means to place a thing where you want it. “P-U-T-T means merely a futile attempt to do the same thing.”                                                            

GO SNAPPERS 2022!!

AOTD: None again……without being there I am getting no stories to report on from what apparently is becoming a very boring league….try harder to distinguish yourselves Snappers or else I will resort to simply making stuff up about you one by one……oh the power of the pen…. Until then how about this to keep you from yawning:

Drowning your sorrows:

After a particularly poor round, a golfer spotted a lake as he walked despondently up the 18th.He looked at his caddie and said, “I’ve played so badly all day, I think I’m going to drown myself in that lake.”The caddie, quick as a flash, replied, “I’m not sure you could keep your head down that long.”       

GO SNAPPERS!!

‘Blades Corner:

All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I scan this wasted land

(Kashmir – Led Zeppelin Cuz it’s hot)

It’s so hot the cows are producing evaporated milk.
It’s so hot that I have taken to leaving the toilet seat up just to get those chilling, icy stares from my wife.
It’s so hot chickens are laying hard-boiled eggs.
It’s so hot everyone is wearing sweat pants.
It’s so hot the frozen pizza I bought at the grocery store was ready to eat by the time I got home.
It’s so hot outside I just saw two hobbits throw a ring off my roof.

Sometimes updating the golf sheet is a version of the telephone game…

GO SNAPPERS 2022!!

Long as I remember the rain been comin’ down

And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?

I UNDERSTAND WE HAD A VISITOR AT HOLE # 2 greenside today….Somebody missed me……..           

SIDE NOTE FOR ALL OF YOU KEEPING SCORE ON THE OFFICIAL  SCORECARD FOR THE VERY  FIRST TIME AND OH YOU TOO LARRY COOPER: Reminder it is a lot easier for me to locate and log  your stats pars and birds if you help by placing a circle around your birds (double circle for eagles)  AND if you put a dot to the right of your pars.  That goes for those of you who care little or not at all for pars as well as those of us for whom a single par in a round is our only goal///’’’……

Excuse me, sir. But is the course open tonight?

GO SNAPPERS 2022!!

BIRDIES: SHANG,  Hollywood,  Carrier,  Murany ,  Ford  (Matt & Jake of course) Coop, Romo, Herb ,  Kyle,     Hamilton, Stutz and 2 for ballhog Scott Gregory….great job guys

LOW ACTUAL:   Larry Cooper “37”

LOW NET:  Matt Murany   “32”

AOTD:   LARRY COOPER  for failure to follow directions.. he turned in a scorecard when specifically instructed last week with good reason not to keep score for awhile..when asked for a defense he said: “my wife says I only have 2 faults that bother her 1 I don’t listen to her and 2 …ahh something else I cant remember..”   ….ASSHOLE!  ..by the way the card was fine so I hereby lift the prohibition….don’t want him to scam the system for golf balls…

Honorable Mention for Kevin Stutzman:  anybody ever see the Progressive commercial bout people turning into parents: give ya a $100 if you can tell me what this round object wrapped in foil in the freezer is??? Well I could ask the same thing of Kevin Stutzman bout his substitutes name the one I am supposed to keep scores recorded for:

WHO SUBBED FOR CHRIS JOHNS?????…

Anybody anybody  is it DAN  Xy#EL08??

CONGRATS MAJESTIC BEER BABE OF THE WEEK AUDREY

Alternate Header: You make a grown man cry

Congrats to the following weekly winnas:

GREENIE #1:  Rick Carlson       #2:  Mike Romanowski

TEAM SKIN: Lucky hole # I cant rememba….. cut several times with net “6” to carry over…..

5-HOLE: substitute  Kevin Miller subbing for Scott Gregory cleaned our clocks here…

BIRDIES: Matt Murany and Larry Cooper on #1 Wolf # 4 Starnes # 9 Jake # 7.. Jamies Scratch Game: Wolf, Coop &  Jake

LOW ACTUAL:  Steve Starnes “37”

LOW NET:  Matt Murany  & Johnny Martin  “35”

AOTD:   Steve Shang Peltier…….Accepted responsibility for placing the blank par 3 greenie stakes at the 2 par three holes…. Fulfilled one half of said responsibility placing one and just keeping the second for himself escorting it all the way back to the cart barn.  Which is more than he did with his scorecard.  That was inadvertently found on the boat while litter was being collected, stuffed into the seat cushion after he went home.  ASSHOLE!

Honorable mention goes to Jason Carrier for taking a practice put during play causing his ball to be struck by his partners putt which of course therefore had zero chance to be made and was bounced off line and further from the hole than it would have….. Nice try with the “cant get AOTD for playing golf” defense but I rule practice puts during play are illegal and not therefore playing golf…oh thank you Shang…

POINT OF ORDER:  Larry Cooper please do not keep score for awhile….I was shocked to see an official scorecard turned in that Timmy K would have been proud of… apparently a carry over mindset  from recent outings and tournaments in an attempt to calculate individual net scores completely useless to me ,  it had slashes and numbers everywhere  appearing to be some kind of modified stableford scoring written in Dutch… please Larry its league now …you can do this …

Blade’s Corner: Please email any Beer Babe photos to me at dablade1@gmail.com. Please include name(s). Also I will post any random shots from the course you send me along with any “Ask DaBlade” advice column questions.
