I have used this name since I first started playing video games online. Now that im in my 30's it might be time to pick a new one, but old habits are hard to break.

My last name is Pressley...lots of Elvis stuff growing up. Stopped fighting it years ago and went with it. Some friends still call me Elvis. I play a lot of sports and 14 is my jersey number (comes from Pete Rose). Thus elvis14. I've used it on internet boards for almost 20 years now. I first remember using it in the early 90's on MR2 boards (then Miata and WRX boards and various softball, golf, flag football, and Duke Basketball boards).

What's in my bag?

My Dad's name is Skip. He used to coach hoops at my old high school, and I had a freshman biology class with one of his senior players who always used to call me "Young Skip." 40 was my number on the b-ball team freshman year. That was 12 years ago now. Haha, wow.

I'd like to start a thread where you can explain your username. There are many times I wonder, why that name? Not to pick on any one person, but I have to ask, "DavidFehretysBike"? That is an interesting one...

Ghalfaire is Gaelic for golfer. My family came from Ireland. I'm a second generation American.

Varsity because I play on my Varsity team at my high school,
Golf because golf is my favorite sport, and I believe its better than anything else in the world of sports!!!!!

Thanks,

Around 1998 or so I signed up for AOL, but any combination of my name was already taken, so I used the "Suggest a Username" feature and this is what popped up. Suprisingly, it is always available :)

Wouldn't be appropiate to put on the forum what it suppose to mean, but is it something some high school friends came up with and I never have to worry about someone using it.

    • No, they will collect the "Stay & Play" cost at the Virtues on Sunday. I was a little surprised by that, I would collect on Saturday, but I guess the person doing the reservations & bills is located at the Virtues.  I think we can trust that none of us are going to run out on the bill and leave us in a lurch.
    • Thanks for following up. Since you're going to be booking the stay and play packages, does that mean you have to put up the money up front?
    • They're playing 16 games in each match though. Don't need much of an advantage before that number of players significantly loads things in their favor. The other team has to win 8.5 games to beat them. At a 65/35 split, that's a lot and pretty unlikely (about 10% of the time).
    • Why does the second sentence have to be true? If they're used to playing a tough course that's improperly rated, they're going to both have inflated indexes and have higher skills relative to them. If their home course features a variety of different challenges, I don't see why their game wouldn't travel well. And on the flip side, some courses and their members take pride in how hard their course is and how tough it's rated, and that bit of vanity ends up hurting them in these kinds of competitions.
    • I discussed it today but can call back and re-confirm.  I would love to be wrong on that point. Note: That may have been before they changed the hotel due to lack of room at Hampton Inn. Update on Friday Hotel: If I can give a count to EagleSticks they can get us a discount on Friday night at the hotel.  I do not have the $$ but should be much lower than the $249 the hotel quoted me. I do not have my list with me for the Friday hotels but if you want one, please post ASAP and I will get the rate and get them held. Thanks @billchao for catching this.
