For Greg
The strangest season of the Fore Skin Golf League comes to an end this week. Some say: “Finally yes!” Some say: “Finally {sigh}!” Some say: “The dinner after is free, right?”
We have lost a dear friend forever, we have had to re-institute our bye week protocol when faced with not enough teams, we have had to deploy a three man team when faced with the lowest amount of teams ever, and we have had the highest low scores in the history of the league. Strange indeed.
Through it all, Team 3 has led wire to wire. This week, Team 5 has the daunting task of trying to win a match with the most points ever. It should be noted that perennial powerhouse Team 4 is still mathematically in it as well, despite catastrophic setbacks.
Let me, your “Captain”, take this time to thank all for helping, well, ALL of us get through this season. It has made the tough times easier and more memorable. Thanks to all for donating your prize money to Greg’s children.
Now, did I miss anything? Ah yes - dinner is on the league after golf at Joe’s Prime Time Pub.
Oh, one more thing. The tale of the tape.
Team 3 needs to get 3 points to clinch the Fore Skin Cup.
Team 5 needs to get 21.5 points to clinch the Fore Skin Cup.
Team 4 needs to (deep breath) get all 24 points available, and Team 4 has to have nobody show up and Team 3 goes scoreless. See, Team 4 is still in it!
Team 2 needs to let Team 4 get all the points.
Team 1 is playing a scramble but maybe they can join Teams 2 and 4 for the fun of it.
