    Guys, a few updates for you.

    First off, after much deliberation over the last week I've come up with the pairings for this year's Ryder Cup match.

    ironmaster and Indio
    Lance LePage and Chris St. Michael
    hoolio and geronamo
    Paulio and Mattchew
    Drew and gbower
    LobWedge and jvincent
    Sakuraba and Pinshark
    Bouche and ???
    Wilster and habsfan


    Secondly, as the observants ones have probably noticed my name is not up there. It is with great sadness that I have to back out of this year's matches. With this temporary position at work I have some work related things I can't put off. As well, with my course opening later, and I have yet to pay for my membership this year, the financial situation isn't right either. Seeing as how I also have a bachelor weekend to plan and pay for as well. It's an unfortunate oversight on my part, but it is what it is. I am still working on being able to go (hence Bouche's participation is tentative at this time, dbleber you're next up), but it doesn't look promising at this point.

    So please welcome Mr. LePage to position of Ottawa Team Captain. I hope everyone shows him the same courtesy and respect you all showed me. I know I'm putting the team in good hands and am fully confident we'll bring home the hardware for a second consecutive year.

    Lance, your duties will be limited to making sure everything runs well during the weekend. I will have everything done for you beforehand.

    Good luck guys, I'll miss not being there.

    That sucks!! Geoff, Geoff... you only live once.. are you sure you can't work through this? Maybe we can take up a collection

    I hope you can make it. Good choice of alternate captain though and thanks for paring me up him. Lance is after my X-forged irons, so I know that's the reason he's hooked up with me. It's all a master plan, I know .

    Welcome Bouche. He's a great guy and is a good addition to the team.
    Some people are like Slinkies... they're really good for nothing, ... but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs...

    We will have to see, but, I will let you know by noon tomorrow, if not. It would be tough. Do you have two spots if the worse case were to happen, Geoff?

    i can get you an 8.6 player if you need Geoff. He sneaks around the board but not a member. Worse case if you need someone last minute.

    Yes, I could. I do have a vehicle, but mentioned to the wife that I would be getting a drive with Matt. We will see how this all develops.. Matt and I were supposed to be back down on Sat night, which is where the problem lies (other plans) and then we were going to drive back for the Sunday.

    I can drive 3 golfers + their equipment (as I offered earlier in the thread) but I'm going down for the practice round friday, coming back Sunday. I will gladly pass through Ottawa/Gatineau & pick up anyone who needs or wants a lift.

    Paul will easily fit in someones trunk or glovebox.
    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

    Hey John, looking forward to playing with you. Should be a blast.

    No chance of switching shifts with anyone Geoff?

    Geoff:

    If you want to room with John and me - I think we have an extra bed, then you can bunk with us. I'll pay for half the room, so there'll be no cost to you in that regard.

    John, am I correct that we have an extra bed?

    I believe that is correct based on what Wilster posted earlier.

    I just saw Lance's reply. If Geoff can't make it then we'll have a spot.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    .....Don't worry about a thing, your clown suit will probably blind them and we'll sneak in some good shots while they're looking for their sun glasses . If that doesn't help we'll just have to laugh a lot and enjoy ourselves no matter what, that's an order soldier !!
