Gulfstream Saturday, I have box seats available
 
I have four box seats on the finish line for Saturday if anyone wants them. I can overnight them tomorrow for Friday delivery.

PM me if interested and you know how to figure out Florida mail.

Scav 02-17-2010 03:30 PM

Tickets gone.

GPK 02-17-2010 09:04 PM

Hello....... he said Gulfstream, not Tampa. Besides, if Amelia was sitting in the child seat on the flight down, what would you sit in?

wish I had been on yesterday. Down in Key Largo and it's cold!!!! Global Warming in the form of cooling has definately hit South FL.

BTW All they can talk about on commercials for Gulfstream is their shopping and nightclub. The racing specifically the Fountain of Youth is just mentioned in passing at the end almost as if they are running the race using the aisles of a mall.

I'll actually be at Tampa instead. I was all set to go to Gulfstream and enjoy the day there but with Klink running at Tampa, I couldn't miss that, I would be sick for weeks if he ran good and I wasn't there, being in the state of Florida.

I played golf today and I was in shorts and t-shirt and people thought I was insane, it was like 55 degrees....

I stopped keeping score after the 12th hole, was getting frustrated, then the last three holes I looked like Predraig Harrington. Was lighting it up. And there is two other DTers that will back that up too. :)

I broke 100, I know that for sure, I shot 50 on the front, but I played much much better on the back 9.

If you shot 50 on the front and then stopped counting after 12, how do you know you broke 100 (unless it's to the north side of 100)? I'm guessing that you got disgusted with a couple of probably snowmen on holes 10-11 and or 12 that led you to rip up the scorecard.
I think I'm going to need a ruling. Bigs.....Rude...... any input from the Tampa contingent?

I don't think they'll allow that tomorrow. Better find one with a collar....

Your logic makes perfect sense, but we weren't around for that round to give a ruling.

I will be in the foursome tomorrow....full report forthcoming.

Best score between team counts, then 1 pt is given for the hole.

Bigs/Scav is a 2 hole underdog.

Supposedly I am going to bounce off my last three hole performance on Thursday, we'll see.

Any dude bold enough to name himself "golfer", should be giving us 2 holes a side.

I had an eerily similar round on Friday. I had three holes of brilliance on the back nine also. The rest was a struggle with my newly re-shafted driver.

GBBob 02-21-2010 09:49 AM

I think Scavs and Quality Road are going to have something in common after today.

miraja2 02-21-2010 10:18 AM

Scav should be stripped of the title Mr. Chicago.
Being completely miserable throughout all of January and February is an essential part of living here, and if he is off playing golf in Florida all month....he clearly no longer deserves this prestigious honor.

I think he has a chance to at that number too. But I'm guessing it will be revised for the board, to something much more respectable.

GPK 02-21-2010 03:45 PM

Talked to Scavs earlier by phone. I will let him reveal his score, but I will say it was well into the triple digits.:$: I will also say that he was not the high score in the foursome. I will not reveal the name of the individual he beat, but his initials are BigsMC:)

112 100% legit, no lift/clean/place and counting every comedy stroke, but as always, I turned it on on the backside and was hitting the ball off the tee really good.

Bigs and I got smoked in the match play, we only won 3 holes, pushed 3 holes, and one of them was because I sunk what was probably a 20 footer for par, farthest I had ever hit.

When the driver worked, the putter didn't, and vice versa. While I had an absolutely great time today playing golf, my face and arms absolutely hate me right now. Red as Chuck Simon's saddle cloths...OUCH!

That's alright. I'm sure you guys got the best of them during the hot dog eating contest on the turn.

Actually, I have done very little eating on this trip, about once a day, been too busy. I completely underestimated how far Ocala is from Tampa, and I have driven to Tampa from Ocala on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I will say this. I had a Cuban Sandwich for the first time ever at Tampa Bay Downs, and those were ridiculously awesome. I could have eaten 5 yesterday if I wasn't so consumed about getting smoked in the ass by a stranger named Jeremy Rose.

Couple highlights
-Richard Grunder picture
-'Golfer' aimming for the 9th hole green, while we were playing the 18th, hit an unbelievable shot, for the 9th hole

Worst round of my life.

I suck.

I remember when I used to golf (and by no means was I any good), if I played with someone really good, I played better. As if that good person had a positive affect on my game. What I'm saying Bigs is, maybe your partner had the adverse affect on your game.

The ground was very tricky today. It looked like it was rock hard, but when you tried to hit a fairway shot the correct way, the ground gave out from under, very soft.

Both Bigs and I hit our fair share of chunks, which is normally not part of my game. I am usually doing comedy things like leaving a 10 ft putt 4 feet short, hitting a 5 iron 90 yards, or always playing from 2 inches from a tee because I have a boomarang tee shot to the right :)

First time ever playing the course, and from where I hit my tee shot, I couldn't even see the 18th green. Of course, in aiming for the 9th green accidently, I still missed IT 25 yards to the right:o But it was a GREAT recovery wedge to the proper green.

Ahem, you guys failed to mention it was DORMY after 9 holes!

I do give all the credit to Fulla Sheets. The kid was the MAN through the first 9 holes. After that, we both kinda felt sorry for you guys:D

Still, a great day, perfect weather, beautiful course, and outstanding company:tro:

Fulla Sheets 02-21-2010 07:52 PM

I shot a "decent" 92, if there ever was such thing. But hitting 5 shots OB, and using my putter 40+ times didn't help the cause.

Kid, you suck worse than me with the putter. This game will drive you insane. Quit now while there is still hope for you. Stay away from girls too...they will drive you more insane than golf will.

Finish high school, move to Tampa and play the horses for a living. In another 5-8 years, Bigs will be retired and will need someone to drive his old ass around everywhere. You can make some side :$: :$: doing that.

My final piece of advice...ALWAYS, ALWAYS listen to the advice of Exacta Bob. He will never do you wrong.
