I voted for blue ... cuz I like blue.  I like red too, but blue is a bit more favorite.  Red's my favorite too just not as much.  Not as much favorite as blue.  But if we end up with red I'll be like "That's OK cuz Red's my favorite anyway."  But they're both good.  They're both good.

(Paraphrased from Brian Regan ...)

I think the captains should get to pick the color. Since forced to vote for one of the other, I recommend the blue for the west coast.

I voted for "West Coast Blue/ East Coast Red" based on the 2012 Presidential election map. The entire west coast of the continental United States voted for Obama while there were a few red states that voted for Romney on the east coast.

Drivers: Bag 1 - TM R11 (10.5°); Bag 2 - Ping G5 (9°),
Fairway woods: #1 - TM RBZ Tour (14.5°) & TM System 2 Raylor (17°); #2 - TM Burner (15°) & TM V-Steel (18°)
Hybrid: #1 - TM Rocketballz (19°); #2 - Ping G5 (19°)
Irons: #1 - Ping i3+; #2 - Hogan Edge  (both 4-pw, +1" shaft)
Wedges: #1 - Ping i3+ U wedge (52°) & Ping Eye 2+ BeCu (60°); #2 - Ping ISI Sand BeCu (52°) & Cleveland CG11 lob (60°)
Putters: Ping B60i & Anser 2, Odyssey White Steel 2-Ball & White Hot XG #9, Lamkim Jumbp grips
Golf Balls: Titleist Pro V1, Bridgestone B330, Callaway SR1, Slazenger Grips: Lamkin Crossline
Golf Shoes: Footjoy & Adidas; Golf Glove: Footjoy StaSof®; Golf Bag: Ping Hoofer
I love this game! :-D

Red for east coast, because it reminds me of New England, lobster, Boston and one of their fall colors. blue for west coast because it reminds me of our 330+ days of blue skies, the Dodgers, and it's my favorite color to wear. Blue West, Red East. that's my vote.

For the love of spaghetti, please all of you west coasters vote for blue.  It's my favorite color, and red really doesn't bring my eyes out quite the same way.

I voted West Coast red because a few of you had mentioned that you like blue :whistle:

Yeah, we can be pretty arbitrary about this, and at least for me it's not like I'm going to be wearing them or anything. . . :-D

You could always take a little blue and mix it with a little red.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Voted west coast blue as ALL California Universities (UCs at least) include blue in their colors....

UCs are all blue and yellow, but the rest don't follow that same convention.  The CSU's are random.  Fresno State, for example, is red and blue, with red being the main color.  Fullerton is Orange and Blue.  USC is crap.

You get the idea. :-P

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

      Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.
