I am rapidly approaching my self imposed internet ban so I will leave you with this post to rant and rave about and I'll be back sometime on Thursday to read your opinions.

I kind of liken this to the GPS coordinates being off on one of those smart bombs by like .0005 degrees - sorry innocent family next to that suspicious warehouse!

Kidding (sort of).

While it always hurts to have hopes and dreams shattered I think it more points to how much work you put in Jordan not to mention how dang accurate/tight the handicapping system is.

Most definitely agree.

I understand where Jordan is coming from.

He is VERY intent on getting things right when he runs TDG and obviously takes pride in doing the best job possible. His idea of creating the rating/stroke spread after the fact is his idea for making things even more accurate.

However, TDG is FUN and that, I feel, is the number one priority. I don't think this rule change is needed or wanted by most players. I think it would take some of the fun out of it- as we'd never be 100% sure where we stood at the end of the day.

I appreciate the extra effort Jordan is willing to take on, but I hope he changes his mind. He doesn't need the extra work and things seem to work pretty darn well most of the time.

The RRs may not have liked the result last week, but those guys are all good players and we beat them because of the AM pads, not the RPS that was set. I think they'll make it to the Championship just fine and the embarrassment of their loss will fade- in time.
