Ahh yes... College football is back!

It's like that old pair of gym shorts. Man does it feel good the have college football back! I'd taken to watching baseball, and that's just not good for a guy's brain.

Oh yea, and OU almost lost, which would have made my weekend that much better. They did suck though :)

I got out and played with a group of guys from FreeGolfInfo yesterday. It was like an SMT gathering as everyone had at least one SMT club. One guy even had on an SMT shirt and an SMT glove.

On the range, I was shanking everything... bad. I even told the guys that it was going to be bad. Well, I started birdie, par, double bogey, birdie (after missing a 6' eagle putt), bogey, par, bogey, bogey, bogey for a smooth 40 on the front. A whole bunch of bogeys and a couple pars on the back netted me a 43 for an 83. Not too bad, but I can tell you this course was much more open than my home course, so I'm sure I would have scored much worse at home. Also, the greens were all bumpy and very slow, so my 36 putts seemed ok to me.

Tee time collusion!

I joined a country club a couple months ago so I wouldn't have to scrounge for coupons, could walk on any time I want, could get a group of guys to play with, etc., etc.

Now, basically on the weekends, you have to call at 7am on Tuesdays and Wednesdays to get a tee time for Saturday and Sundays. I've called at exactly 7am and got "9:56 is open." What the hell? I called at 7 and already 10 people have gotten tee times?

I think next Monday afternoon, I'm going to go down there and look at the tee sheet for the next Saturday and see if any names are already down, because this is BS.
