No real plans here.   My grandmother on my dad's side was from Dublin and her last name was Dublin so I guess I'm part Irish.     I bet I don't wear the green as well as her...

In many ways, I look at St Patrick's Day the same way I look at New Year's Eve, its a night for "amateur" drinkers to overindulge and act foolish.  That said, our golf club is having an open house this evening, so I'll stop by and have a couple of (not-green) beers before heading home early.  I'd hit the range or play a few holes, if only the course wasn't covered with snow.

I never could get into the whole green beer thing

Green beer has always been the cheapest beer available at any particular place, often Coors or Miller Lite, and its been a long long time since cheap beer appealed to my taste buds.  We don't have Guinness on tap at the club, but I might just have to have a can sometime tonight.

My wife is mostly of Irish ancestry so we have about 15 people (mostly family) for some toasts, beer, Irish whiskey, soda bread, and corned beef and cabbage.  I do the liquor run today and try to keep it all Irish and those that love the suds and whiskey plan to stay overnight.  I go back to being of Italian ancestry tomorrow!

    • Good advice.  When you see a golfer taking short steps, looking down at the ground, it's probably checking for temporary water.  There are plenty of cases were just hitting it from the bad lie is better than where you would drop it. Like hitting of a cart path.   
    • Yea I find it ridiculous people having an issue that he could drop in the fairway. Every relief situation is its own instance. You re-assess after a drop. Sometimes the drop is in your favor or not.  Too many scramble only golfers commenting on golf rulings. Usually scrambles you need to maintain the same lie if you hit with in a club length of the ball. 😉  
    • MSN J. J. Spaun relief from sprinkler head under fire for not being in the spirit of the game. While I understand the advantage he gains by dropping a ball that ended up in rough in the fairway doesn't seem to kosher in lot of people's eyes, but I suspect this happens more often than lot of people realize and players take the entitled relief every time when the opportunity present itself. Not fair to call him out as a person of 'no integrity' IMO.  A lot of people do not know that both fairway and rough are part of the same general area and ROG does not distinguish them as far as relief is concerned.
    • Jack played in 7 tournaments in 1986. He was on his way out. He was not training or trying to be the best in the world. Honestly, he just caught some good golf at the right time.  Who says Jack wasn't battling injuries at that time either? A lot of stuff wasn't reported on until post 2000 in terms of covering athletes.  At what capacity? He can play, but he can't compete at any sort of level for the PGA or Senior Tour.  Yes, most of them walk away.
