I dunno, man… you're a Patriots fan. On the bright side, your odds increase when they lose to the Falcons. :-)

Non issue. They tend to do the right thing in the playoffs.

Sometimes the best thing to do is to keep one's mouth firmly shut, rather than harming oneself by saying something foolish.  I believe that's the course I'll choose for the moment:whistle:

Note to self: don't consider picking Dave until after, oh, mid- to late-May.

@iacas had a great idea so I copied it ;-)

Going through the thread, looks like I have 13 people that have expressed interest. Like Erik did I listed their index and availability rated A-C. Please let me know if you want me to make any updates or if I left someone out. 

My first pick will most likely be an "A" player.

 2. @mchepp 5.8 A
 3. @tristanhilton85 10.7 A
 4. @Pretzel +1.2 A

I'll be sure to keep you updated. I will know by July at the latest whether I'm still a "B" or moving up to an "A" for availability.

It's looking very good at the moment as I have alot of vacation time that I'd love to spend on more golf.

Realistically I will not have a single digit handicap in 1 month. I had my hopes up and thought this would give me a kick in the pants to practice and drop a few strokes (I was on a good trend) but we have had a TERRIBLE start to this year at work so I've been working overtime with a lot of physical draining (reactor inspections), plus winter storms, etc. etc. 

Last year I did pretty good playing in the Winter months, but this year I was not as fortunate.

I will set this as a personal goal for next year! This was something I really want to do some day.
