-Both George Templin and Short Jeffers have Lakeview scramble winning streaks going, each with two.
-And for the second week in a row, Jack Lents yesterday walked off with a bunch of quarters from his playing partners - Jack Butcher, Ken Hudson and Dick Lemmon; the majority of them have come from his winning every one of the flags (that would be closest-to-the-pin shots on the par threes) over the 36 holes played.
-Thursday's scramble will start at 12 noon.
-The banged up Colts were surprisingly competitive against the Eagles Sunday. With another catch or two, they would have won that game. Dang. Lot of parity in the NFL this year. Any team can lose on a given Sunday; any team can win, even the lowly Cleveland Browns - they spanked the Patriots two days ago. Now who would have predicted that?!
-Talking about predictions: Did you see that Bob Kravitz congratulated himself for his right on the money 26-24 last Friday prediction of the Colt game? That would have been with his Monday morning column.
-Tiger in Melbourne this week defending what was his last victory, the Australian Masters. Hope he fares a bunch better than he did in the skins match he played in Thailand.
-The Wie Lass is in Mexico defending her title at Lorena's tournament. Michelle is highlighted here at lpga.com with a recap of her win in last year's event, her very first on the LPGA. From the article:
She leads the Tour in driving distance, averaging 275.4 yards off the tee, ranks third in greens hit in regulation and T16 in scoring average.
-Time for breakfast here at the Bird House on the Hill. See if you can get out and enjoy some of this super November weather we're having...
