The Ryder Cup, with the Stanley Cup next to it, would be a beautiful sight; all Ottawa is pulling for you guys.

In our match we halved the front nine ant then on the back we were back and forth until habsfan hit a great drive to 78 yds from the hole and I hit my best sandwedge to 10 ft and he sunk the putt for the win on the back. Indio and Fallys cleaned their guys on both the front and back which was great as they had to give the Toronto guys 8 strokes.

WOO HOO---now we have to get team colours and a mascot! Keep it up guys.

[big mac]

You gave them 8 STROKES----My god I could have played!

[spackler]

If Indio and Fallys collect the full 4 points over two day, I suspect we will never hear the end of it. Keep up the great play, guys!

[Hacker]

The visualizing technique must be working for Indio

[Ginker]

Gents.. I am chilling in the room.. Hoolio... thats another story.. We just had some eats, and maybe some beers..

Course was great, weather was perfect.. Bugs INSANE!!!

Way to go guys, keep up the good work!!!!

I wonder what happened to the other 1/2 point ?

I wonder what happened to the other 1/2 point ?

Glad I wasnt the only wondering where the half point went.

[Golfbum]

I just took a quick peak at TGN and I see no reports in regards to this event. I wonder why?
Bring it home boys, it is easy to get a lead, it is harder to hold onto it!

[gbower]

There was an extra 1/2 point for winning both the front and back so Fallys and Indio got 2 1/2. One for the front, one for the back and the bonus.
Today could be an interesting one with it raining down here right now and probably quite a few heavy heads as a lot of pop was consumed last night. Hopefully all the youngsters will roll out of bed in time for the 10:30 tee offs. The TO guys all seemed to vanish really early and are probably at the course now practicing.

[Drew]

Tylenol for the youg guns and Advil for the old farts....I just took the Advil!

[Kilroy]

There was an extra 1/2 point for winning both the front and back so Fallys and Indio got 2 1/2. One for the front, one for the back and the bonus.

Then there is a point missing? 18 9 hole matches. Shouldn't there be 18 + the 1/2 point bonus?

Dan - I think that you are assuming that one team or the other has someone who is "good" with math

[Kilroy]

You'd think golfers would understand 2x9=18

You'd think golfers would understand 2x9=18

I agree with you, but we don't know how efficient the beer-cart was............

[Kilroy]

Perhaps there was a demerit point for not drinking enough?

Nice

[Kiwi-man]

Way to go guys Sounds like a blast.

[gbower]

Let's see 11 + 7.5 = 18.5

Only one match where our guys got both the front and back for the extra 1/2 pt or otherwise they got 2 1/2. Hope that solves this one.

[Indio]

I wonder what happened to the other 1/2 point ?

Fallys820 and I got an extra half poing for sweepin the front and back.... The guys didn't hear the end of it dsaturday night since we were the only team to do it AND we were giving TGN the mostr stors, 4 on the front and 4 on the back.....
