- Not Mark Twain
So, Week 2 is in the books (Week 1 having peeked out from its hole, seen its shadow, and crawled back in).
Despite the season starting one week late, it crept up on me and I was woefully unprepared. Thankfully, the league - beginning it's 54th season - is practically on autopilot now, and nary a death (or even injury) was reported Tuesday night. Success!
Apparently the 2011 golf styles range from khaki shorts to five layers of clothing and stocking caps. I saw several hats that, I believe, came with free bowls of soup.
Who was unfazed by the Arctic blast? The Daves! Delveaux and Rieves (not Wolfe - have you not been paying attention?) posted a 38 and 39, respectively, to lead the way. In addition, Lynn Paulson, Andy Taylor, and Chris Weber rolled in at 40.
The newly constructed Weber team, along with the Kraus team, jump out to an early lead in the standings - each gaining 9.5 points over the first two weeks.
However, none of that matters. What is really astounding is that the final group on Tuesday came in before the sun went down! Times were pretty good Tuesday. There were a couple large gaps between groups. I'll collect the data for the first half of the season and see if any trends emerge. Thanks for keeping the pace up in week 1. Let's continue to keep it up once the sun comes out.
Note to Chris Weber: Thanks for the beer after our round. I bought you one, too, but you were gone so I drank it. The way I see it, we're even.
Next week: Please bring your $25 entry fee if you didn't this week. I got it from almost half of you in week 1. I golf late on Tuesday, but I'll be there for the first tee time.
