*******

Well boys and girls, we had quite a day today. Everyone played a little better and few, if any, of the players looked as if they were "tanking" in preparation for the BIG TOURNAMENT next Thursday. There were a couple of "suspicious" scores, but on the whole everyone's handicap should be valid as of October 1, 2007, and the tournament should be a close and competitive affair.

Individual Honors

As you will no doubt notice, we had to go back into the HHH & S archives to dig up an "action" photo of our newest winner, George. He of the Methodist persuasion, got it in gear today with an outstanding round of +7 (42-41). Way to go, George! Not only that, but there was a little pre-round trash talk from one of his not so respectful minions, and George smoked him .... big time! Don't mess with the Dragon Slayer! Notable nines: In addition to George's 42-41 round, Hergy shot a 40 (40-46) on the Azalea, and Brent had a 40 on the Dogwood.



It was decided amongst the group that Brent's round today could not be allowed to pass into history without some form of comment from his "friends". To the left is a picture of Brent shortly after he had finished his round early this afternoon. His round of 40 on the front is what most of us expect from Brent (alright, maybe it's a little better than we expect!), but his second nine, a dazzling 52 may constitute the biggest nine hole swing in HHH & S history. The good news is that he finished the round and we were able to send him home without any injuries, other than a bruised ego and a higher handicap!

Team Competition

---------------------------

Well, St. George and his Dragon Slayers, Larry, Hergy and Walter, totally destroyed the would-be, trash-talking pretenders with an OUTSTANDING +17. Yes, golf fans, that's correct, a +17. They were able to tie the all-time record for victory points with devastating skill and finesse.

-------------------------

Meanwhile, The Dragons, Marshall, Ron, Brent and Don, are still wondering how St. George managed to spur his followers upward and onward to such a clear and concise VICTORY! The Dragons did manage to post a decent +5 on the front, but fizzled like a wet sparkler on the 4th of July on the inward nine.

WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM

FEARLESS FOOTBALL FORECAST

(9-4 for the Season)

South Carolina - 17 Mississippi State- 14
(This game will be close. MSU has a good defense)

Clemson - 14 Georgia Tech - 21
(Upset special. Clemson will crumble like a fortune cookie...I think)

Nebraska - 35 Iowa State -21
(Nebraska sucks, but not as bad as Iowa State)

Wofford - 17 Furman - 21

(Furman played Wisconsin tough several weeks ago and the Terriers, the mighty, mighty terriers are still living off last week's victory over App. State. Close, but Furman wins!

As far as college mascots go, how about this look?
