"Golf requires goofy pants and a fat ass. You should talk to my neighbor, the accountant. Probably a great golfer... huge ass."

You should bring some of your colleagues like Jeremiah and Jason. They would enjoy it (I think).

I'm looking for a team if anyone needs someone to fill out their foursome...

Posted on the basketball board, but if someone needs a fourth I am available.

Well - fate may have it that I will be in BVille that weekend (for a wedding on that Friday night). I have to double check the date - but if anyone needs an extra for their 4some - I am game. What I lack in golf skill, I make up in hilarious banter and beer drinking skill.

Confirmed. Count me in - I'm officially a free agent. Who wants to wine and dine me?

Oh word? Now I gotta go

Adam - you gotta come. Us on a golf team would probably drink the golf course out of beer.

OrangeTown, I think we have a perfect addition for our squad.

Hotels of CNY, make us an offer. We are looking for sponsors of all shapes and sizes...

How many teams were in last year?

 

[OrangeOnions]

How many teams were in last year?

Last years tournament was put together in a very short period of time. We had 9 foursomes and over 70 people attend the dinner and silent auction. Over $4,000 was raised for the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America.

Aye, I believe it seems that way. He can't replace Adam, but why would we actually want someone to?

JB would you be interested?

Theoretically it would be me, you, DCCuse, and Marsh01. There is a slight chance Marsh will be unavailable but won't know until closer to the tournament.

I wish I could join you . i've actually learned more about the game and swing since my CVA. At my recovery facility the television channels were very limited. Not even CNN but the golf network was there and being desperate I watch and learned why I was a s#tty golfer. I was pathetic that even when dreaming about golf I was terrible. I never had a pro instructing me so the big part of keeping the arm straight never clicked correctly.

As long as you enjoy it, score doesn't matter my friend.
