Diamond Shamock had a rec area on their Deer Park, TX site's property. In addition to a clubhouse, pool and softball field it had a nine-hole course with two distinct sets of tees. It was an underkept cow pasture quality course through the 70's until a new regional VP said, "if we are to have a course, let's have a course," and put some money into it. The outlay included a contract with San Jacinto Jr. College's Golf Course Maintenance faculty to oversee conditioning. It got to be very playable in the 80's. It was par 34, but only about 3000-yd long, but the greens were tiny. It had been par 36, but a neighbor's cooling tower drift kept killing a par 4's green and par 5's teebox in a corner of the course. A couple of the holes were tree-lined, but much was open and flat. And it was free to employees so... Anyway went around it twice one time in the 1980's in 1-under... a day when I hit the ball well, but could've gotten up and down from a trash can. By contrast... and just to keep it real... I never broke 80 on my old home course. http://www.bayforestgolf.com/

Always thought you might be a hooker...

I don't disagree, but the logic is that a choice is eliminated. How much of a help (or loss) is that? It varies... Just set the reminder... you're not out of it yet!

No... not out of the contest which is two strikes and yer out. Just shut out of this week so... "Strike One". TNF kick off is the deadline for the week. It's always been that way and it's tripped up a few every year. You can set email reminders...

lol... you daredevil you...

So the Curmudgeon is dead? Or for that to occur does he need to actually pick the Browns? Only 5 strikes in Week 1... pretty low count for this bunch. A lot of years more than five fail to make their selection before the TNF kick-off....

Good start by some... ... by most compared to me.

Typical rookie move...

I really want to take the Rams over the Colts... it may be the only Ram play all year. But there's another match-up I like a lil better... ^ Famous last words...

Ummmm.... click on "Forgot My Password"?

I have seeds and a urine filtration kit...

Week One locked and loaded with a limited time offer...

First College... Now Pro... Leaving only... Survival to go. Burma Shave

In... and will not be denied.. for a change.

Time to open up the Pick 'ems and Survivor sign-ups?

This movie featuring the amazing Tom Hardy in a dual role as UK's legendary Kray brothers popped up on HBO over the weekend. I'm guessing it was a Cinemax import. Regardless it's now in the DVR...

Who is Bal-peen?

Back to the drawing board... Here's my dues...

Quite a 2016 haul for Beanpot...

DelHomme is 41. Wynn is only 38, but last played in 2001... tempus fugit...

That reminds me.... I need to floss.

Looking forward to the Dolphins game... https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRFfoU_RIr_2HMS4HUzfaIdXAA4PbPOj1GtittaX-P5M3E6XFOyew

I find myself drawn to the brunette's pouty lips... Looks like I owe a few pics...

I'd like to thank the Academy...
