Fed Ex Cup and More

Here's a breakdown on the possibilities for winning the Cup (from CBS Sports):

If Woods wins this week: Tiger fulfills the common prediction and takes home the inaugural FedExCup with loads of points to spare.

If Stricker wins this week: If the dark horse can pull off his second victory of the playoffs, he would clinch the FedExCup even if Woods finishes solo second.

If Mickelson wins this week: Mickelson's second playoff win would get him the Cup only if Woods finishes in a tie for second or lower. A Mickelson win and a solo second-place finish by Woods would give Tiger the Cup by a razor-thin margin of 20 points.

So, as the author goes on to say, they pretty much need an off week for Tiger.

Meanwhile, locally we already have two teams rearing to go in the Team Skin Game scheduled to tee off here in less than two hours. The old pros, Bob Norris and Clyde Wake, are teamed up; and right there with them are Richard Swayze and Vic Wallace. Remember, you can make up your own team or get partnered just before we start.

Prize Distribution lists for both the Tuesday Men's League and the Thursday Senior League have been posted in the clubhouse.

Expect the rest of the world is managing somehow without us. Or maybe it's true that we all have our part to play and that we are playing our part to perfection, or at least good enough so that this old Earth keeps moving down the interstellar road deeper and deeper into the dark. (Just remember, good things do happen in the dark...)
