Just a few more things

During this morning's scramble, Larry Hembree was having difficulty with his game, so much so that when in disgust he attempted to hit one into the woods up by #4 green, the ball hit a tree and came back at him thus confirming to one and all that it was not going to be his day. Wonder what would have happened if he had hit it into the water instead?

On Tiger and NBC coverage of the Players: I had the tv on though was busy with other things, multitasking in today's parlance. I was struck by the complete inattention to Tiger's play. Not that there wasn't excitement aplenty elsewhere on the course. Still, must have been a first.

At the close of play today, brotherly love reigned supreme as Joe and Greg Potts came out and got there USG league round in - first one of the season for this industrial league. Greg insisted on getting Joe's round public; Joe was equally insistent on keeping his round a secret for as long as possible. I'll abide by Joe's wishes since he had a grumpy golf goddess to put up with during his round. BTW, Greg did report that his son Mark won the Blue Chip tournament for the fourth time earlier in the day. The record that will never be broken, maybe tied, as one only gets four shots at it. Pretty impressive. Congrats to Mark on this stellar achievement.

John Foddrill had his daughter Grace with him during the scramble today. She no doubt was instrumental in helping her daddy with that eagle chip. At least we will give her the credit. Expect we will see more of her at the course since she's such a little darling. Honorary golf goddess for the day.

Tomorrow is Mother's Day - wish her a happy one and give her a hug if she is near by. Then come on out to the golf course and spend some time pushing a little ball around with a crooked stick. It's a great way to spend a few hours.

Hey, don't forget about the Community League.
