Team Disc Golf: Week 3 @ Adair

[Jeff Hemmerling]

Let's have a separate topic for each week's competition, including lunch plans, the schedule, results, smack talk, etc. I'll start this one off...

Putt This!, more specifically Carie Coleman, has offered to host lunch at Adair. Let's hear it for Carie! :yay: If some other team already has dibs then we'll do it another week.

[Jeff Hemmerling]

I can't believe I'm suggesting this but how about we start a half hour earlier at Adair due to limited daylight? Didn't people finish in semi-darkness at Milo?

Captains should be there by 8am to submit rosters. Thoughts?

I can't believe I'm saying this earlier but I do agree with you. :shocked:

And the lunch offer will be greatly appreciated. :yay:

Since I can buy delicious Sparks starting at 7AM I am cool with starting early. :jumpspin::jumpspin::drool:
It is a bit awkward asking them to unlock the case though.:blush:

I will rain on everyone's parade by saying that I would rather start at the announced time of 9:00. It's a bit of a drive for the vast majority of teams, and starting at 8:00 would likely result in less people being there to play.

Thanks for the perfect segue Eric...

Playing at Milo (close to Portland) on Sunday didn't stop most of your team from not showing up. So your rational isn't too convincing.

Well let's see...maybe if Putt This! could turn in their lineups in a timely fashion like the other teams we wouldn't have been running so late at Milo.:shocked:

How's THAT for some smack talk baby!:laughing:

Hopefully things will go smoother at Adair than they ran at Milo. Chances are we will not have the insanely nice weather and the course packed with casual golfers that we experienced at Milo on Sunday. Also I hope to figure out my power problems with my laptop. I think I was lazy and just shut the top of my laptop instead of powering it down like I should have.:headbang:
Hell, I'll take the damn battery out of the laptop during the first round if I have to!

And while I am always in favor of starting earlier Eric has a good point. At what point are we hardcore enough to get together before sunup to play TDG?:shocked:

That doesn't mean I won't open the topic up for discussion.

I'd also like to see a change in how we sign up for the matches. I'd like to NOT see the sheets go off to God knows where while they are being filled out. I am think about getting clipboards and chains and hooking them all up to tournament central where each team can fill out their match ups and I don't get asked 'Where's the match up sheet?' each week. That way when slow pokes hog the sheet for too long it is out in front of everyone and we can smack talk you easier!:bricks:

VAPOR TRAILS is on it! I'll have them ready for Adair. :seeya:

[Sausage Fingers]

Since we are new at the whole Dubs Bonus point thing this year, maybe we need some new rules about (or better - some clearer rules) this part of TDG.

There was some concern about how the dubs match was handled in the afternoon for our match. We were the home team and only had 5 players who were staying for the afternoon. So we put down our 4 singles players and gave the sheet to Westside. (Our 5th player was going to play casual along with us anyway) They match up against our 4 players and then assign 2 players to the bonus dubs. When we see this we write our 5th player in to play Cali so we don't have to forfeit that point. Westside was not pleased. (and I can understand why) But when the team that puts down the match ups first doesn't have the players to initiate the bonus dubs what can you do? I offered them the chance to change their match ups after seeing that we were defending the bonus dubs.

I can't think of a better way to do it than that. Can anyone else?:pirate:

Play it safe and put you're extra person down anyways even if you're pretty sure there won't be a doubles match. You should never be able to put down more people after everything is set. I'm not saying this because I'm a WSS, I'm saying this because the WSS team was smart by putting down doubles partners against a blank spot.

[Pizzel]

I am with Brody. Once a team fills the home team turns over the match-up card to the other away team the home team can make NO changes.....at all. This includes indicating if a Cali player is available for dubs.

Jeff:

One member of my team had a birthday. Two were studying for law school finals (which I should have been doing too). I don't see why my "rational" has to make sense to you or why it has to be justified by my team. I am just voicing an opinion different than yours.

Why not just adhere to the schedule that Jordan published already (via the TreeLove calendar)?

[Sausage Fingers]

One member of my team had a birthday.

If I had known, I'd have brought a birthday cake...:merlin::jumpspin::yay::jumpspin::merlin:

[Sam]

Yeah... WSS had told us that they were not going to field a dubs team which is why we didn't put anything down. I don't know if they were trying to pull a fast one or what the situation was but from not being able to field a doubles' team to losing to a girl playing Cali must have hurt... :whistler:

[Sam]

I was upset at the Asshole Casserole exodus because had you guys played half as well against the Packers as you did against us, we would be in first place. To leave and just hand the defending champs the points seemed kind of sucky to me. My $.02.

[proto something or other]

I can understand your feeling that way.

Not that I feel I have to justify my actions, but heregoes: I hurt my back while playing against T-Ry. I tweaked it while trying to make a falling putt from my knees. I played the rest of the round in pain, and didn't feel like struggling through another 18 to hurt it more. As it stands, I have to miss a substantial portion of work tomorrow to see a chiropractor.

I was Jevon's ride, so he had no choice in the matter.

There. Feel better? At least I beat T-Ry.

I was playing like crap and your girl was just killin us. There was nothing we could do! :bricks:

[Sam]

Erik, I wasn't asking you to justify anything and I have no hard feelings against anyone personally. Totally selfish on my part as I want to grind the Packers under my boot heel (figuratively) and squash all hope they might have about three-peating.

I hope your back feels better and that we will see each other at Adair where we might discuss the pros and cons of New Zealand's parliamentary government. :cheers:

Sounds awesome. I was sort of feeling like the kid who shows up on time to class and gets lectured because his classmates are not in attendance.

Nahmean?

And good luck on breaking the 3-peat train. Looks like Cris Bellinger is your best hope. Just don't tell him that.

["Over the Hill" Bob]

Putt This!, more specifically Carie Coleman, has offered to host lunch at Adair. Let's hear it for Carie! :yay:

Seriously??? You do realize that you are playing for third place....Again...

[Sam]

Um... as long as you are in fourth, I will be happy to take third, Joe. :D

But no... no bulletin board material to get you ladies all worked up... just plain and simple truth. The reign of the Fudge Hole Packers is over. :)

[Joe G]

Dont worry Sam even if the packers get past you guy, Rockwood will smash them in the finals :wink2: And Rockwood??? come on...your breezing through an easy division but get used to 2nd. No amount of rule changing can keep up from our 3-peat. But have fun trying.:trophy::trophy:

[Sam]

:dancing:

Cannot wait to be in first place at the end of this coming weekend. :drool:

[Joe G]

:dancing:

Cannot wait to be in first place at the end of this coming weekend. :drool:

You do realize that was a mistake... I know your smarter then that... Just can't wait till Timber...to crush your hopes. :trophy::trophy::trophy:

[Sam]

Yes... it was a mistake to not get just one more point to make it so that you were never in first this season. No worries... we'll correct that Sunday. :cheers:

[Sam]

So... Jamie and I ran into the best Vapor Trail(er Trash) member yesterday and he was saying something about not showing up for the event at Adair.

Just curious if the rest of you are planning on showing up or if the whole team is taking this one off? :D

[Joe G]

Yes... it was a mistake to not get just one more point to make it so that you were never in first this season. No worries... we'll correct that Sunday. :cheers:

Let me here you sing it Sam:dancing: Back to friggin back. You and the other sissys just doesn't have what it takes. Get used to it. It will hurt alot less.:trophy::trophy::trophy:

[Sam]

OK, Joe. I absolutely cannot wait for you to be eatin' them words Sunday evening. :D

[Joe G]

Sam... What will this weekend tell you...really? Take a good look at the top of the stats list and tell me what you see... Do you really think that will change? What...are you new?

[Sam]

Feh... yes. I AM new. :rolleyes:

Speaking of new... I just found this picture. Anyone else see the Darr resemblance? (Face only. He WISHES he was that buff.)

[Scott]

Holy Crap - that is Darr! :shocked:

Thanks for putting that mental image in my head.

[Sausage Fingers]

means that all current PDGA members will be using their new ratings for this event. I will get to this as soon as I can break away from my new Heroes addiction. Damn you Darr!:pirate:

It looks like Vapor Trails might be missing this one...
details to come. :pullhair::pullhair:

I was hoping no one would find that. :headbang::headbang:

[proto something or other]

We (asshole casserole) may have the majority of our team there this Sunday. It looks like sunny weather. Looking forward to seeing you all.

[Susie Sunshine]

Did we ever reach a consensus on start time for this one? Usual time or were we starting earlier? Doesn't matter either way to me, I just want to make sure us drunks are there on time. :)

[Sam]

Horse-puckey. You guys are showing or we would have more details by now.

I find it impossible to believe that Chris Graham would miss TDG. George, Pat, Lonell, Roger... they should all show, too.

I don't buy it for a second. Nice try, though. You'll have to beat us by golfing, Pat, not tricking us into thinking you won't show. :)

[Carie CPink]

Bump!

Sooooo, who's all going to be there? I'm trying to figure out lunch...changed it to chili dogs (I still need your setup, Bob).

Vapor Trails....what's up?

[Susie Sunshine]

Drunk and Disorderly will be there.

Mmmm, chili dogs!

[Sausage Fingers]

Good Bad & Sassy will represent for the extra match point!:pirate:

[proto something or other]

Asshole Casserole will have 5 people there for sure. A sixth may show up, but I sort of doubt it.

Erik

["Over the Hill" Bob]

Bump!

Vapor Trails....what's up?

All in the truck here in Salem. Spending the night with my daughter so I'll be a little closer in the morning. Maybe a good ol chili dog will help kick this bronchitis.

See you all in the morning.

Bob

[kel]

Dark Horse will be there!

[Carie CPink]

Westside Wimpy Arms, how many of you will be there tomorrow?

[Darr]

Westside Wimpy Arms, how many of you will be there tomorrow?

Vapor Trails will be seven strong!
Poor Sam....:bricks:
Sorry for the confusion. :angel::angel:

[Brody Cannon]

Westside Wimpy Arms, how many of you will be there tomorrow?

Not many. Maybe 3. :pullhair:

[Darr]

The "Infamous" tag has been collected and will be hand delivered by Roger tomorrow. :cheers::cheers:

[TreeLove]

I left my blue and white Willamette Open umbrella at Adair, did anyone happen to grab it?

[Sam]

Let's see some results, Lewis!

And please... mark our team down for the loss, 7-6. We're still in first and then we won't have to call the WAAAAmbulance for James and the other Vapor Trailers. :laughing:

[keys]

I left my blue and white Willamette Open umbrella at Adair, did anyone happen to grab it?

I saw a blue and white umbrella on the tee for hole 9 but didn't pick it up.

[TreeLove]

So did Chris Graham. But when I returned to tee 9, about nightfall, it was gone. Anyone know where it is?

[TreeLove]

Let's see some results, Lewis!

And please... mark our team down for the loss, 7-6. We're still in first and then we won't have to call the WAAAAmbulance for James and the other Vapor Trailers. :laughing:

No, not until Jordan has the tag in his hand.

[Sam]

We're just gonna let the WAAAAmbulance WAAAil? :D
