Jeez... If baseball players were any more fragile, they would be...

Golfers

 

 

... Good point. And not trying to change your mind about baseball as I feel the same about hockey so I get it. Just not your thing. That said, when being successful 3 out of 10 times is All Star percentages, it just shows how difficult hitting a baseball really is. You can't swing a bat with a broken finger just like ya can't swing a golf club with a broken finger. At least not at the highest level.

@touch have to make a chance... Just not sure on Hatton, so give me Ryan Fox.

 

Thanks!

 

Noted. Will change.

On the way home from golf I stopped by Johnson's Farm store. This was the first time I have been to a roadside farm market this summer. I picked up green beans, yellow squash, corn, tomatoes, peaches, and a small watermelon.  Shop Local.

The only reason Lowry is in my line-up of Open picks is because the guy owns his own pub.  And it is rated as one of the top 10 pubs in Ireland.  How could I go wrong there?

Look away Bryson haters.

 

Give the crowd what they want. Nice move.

Here's to the big fella.

I am all set now. I was concerned with getting the right player in the #5 spot for a few days, and then this morning it came to me to take Day. 

Let's get this tournament going!

... Haters gonna hate. Perfect example of why many of us dislike this phony as he says "People go crazy for it. I don't know why"  🙄  Of course he knows why. Everyone knows why. Every golfer is in awe of someone driving a ball over 350 yds ... but don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

This Majors Contest has been a good time. I am going to miss making golf Picks. 

Thankfully the NFL Season is not too far off.

Have you been there before?

It's right around the corner and snagging it might just help the Picks of the person that gets it.
