Stick a fork in 'em, Gonzaga is done. Touch, I'll PM you my address so you can send me my participation trophy.

 

I guess I'm the 2nd person to have all 4 teams eliminated.  Hurray.  However, SDSU is keeping me alive in the money pool.  👏

I guess the distance chart is off for me - 50-59 and 11 index right now.  I'd use my 5-hybrid for 216 yards, which would otherwise be a 4i.  As for accuracy, unfortunately, I don't keep stats for every round and also don't break down Fairways hit specifically with the driver.  Instinctively, though, I want to say I hit at least 50% of fairways using the driver, but it's not appreciably higher than that.

Hey!  That's my old high school buddy Brian!  Where'd you get that picture of Spring Break 1977 in Florida?!

[scomac2002]

Driving distance for 60 yr. old age bracket with 17 handicap would be 205 carry, so say 220 with rollout, so above average.

 

Driving accuracy is probably around 50% give or take depending upon the day, but my sense is a bit above average.

 

Needless to say I have a lot of work to do in the other parts of my game... 🤷‍♂️

25 points for each correctly picked team that makes it to the Final Four.

50 points for predicting the National Champion.

 

 

 

I'm somewhat confused.  The only 2 teams that are in the Final Four right now are FAU and UConn.  So aren't these points a little premature?

True that.   Cancel what I said. 

Sorry NCL as I lost track. I was worn out from yesterday at work and went to be real early.  I got up this morning forgetting there was action today.  So thanks for bringing that to my attention and ...............

Premature bracketation is a common affliction, most commonly occurring at a younger age.

 

Another big day today for the Lindy bracket! Hook ‘em!

From premature ebrackulation, to one day just hoping you can get your bracket up before tipoff! 🫤

... Deja Vu! I was a lifeguard at Myrtle Beach between my senior year in HS and freshman year in college. We worked 7 days a week, ate on our stand and hours were 8:30 am to 5:30pm. After a few weeks all the days just ran together but we always knew when it was Saturday because the beach was filled with these albino sun bathers and Sunday was filled with red ones. I tried telling them to be careful and about 1 out of 25 were thankful and the others told this 18 yr old to mind my own business, they knew what they were doing. I would watch men especially, swimming with their kids in the water and then take a nap in the sun. Some of them with dangerous burns. I stopped warning them after a few weeks because stupid is stupid.

Buddy of mine had a 68 Coronet R/T with 440-6 pack in that same banana colour.  That was the replacement car after he sold his 69 Super Bee 383 4 brl. in Plum Crazy Purple. 

 

He always regretted selling the first one as he rebuilt it from the ground up.   The second was just trouble from the outset...
