NEFA DISCussion

I'd really like to see a new pin down at the end of the new field where the pond used. Short of that option, "unlimited relief" works for the fence perpendicular to the tee, but doesn't work for the fence running parallel to the road since the angle to the pin basically follows the fence.

To ...

Sorry for late notice, but I'm OUT. Ken, I think that puts you IN.

Who was the 2006 Champ?

Agree. If Commish wants to establish a time cap (and subsequent tie breaker), then that's up to him.

...need to decide all positions as that affects who plays who in the semifinal round...
Good point, Lick -- seems pretty straight forward, but...

As soon as worst score determined, that team goes fishing. If, at the time worst is determined, the two other teams are tied, they would continue to ...

Additional items:

* If total score, then match-ups don't matter and we can play 4-somes? We need to get this done as quickly as possible.

* If there is a tie after 6 holes (for worst score), then we go to sudden death -- I assume with only the teams tied for worst score.

* If extra holes, do both ...

OK -- back home / ready to put this to rest -- most of which is already in place.

First, I would like to make a few points:

1) Any playoff format that is not full team / match play (the game we play all season long) will favor one team or another. The current plan for 2 dubz teams / stroke play ...

Hey, I don't want to make a big deal of this. I think we have agreement on 2 dubz teams each. I suppose we'll need to play in 6-somes (which will be slow when time is critical). 1 group off the front and 1 group off the back makes sense. 745am start.

If the idea is to put your best/strongest ...

There IS a gender requirement, else point penalty. We carry 2 women on our roster and have been advocates for female participation / involvement for years.

Willing to agree to your other terms -- despite cran having top players in league -- clearly a good scenario for cran. Condition is 1 female -- which seems very reasonable considering it is dubs and female may not even contribute. If you want a deal, that's my offer.

You have the best players -- this is coed league -- 1 player should be female / no compromise.

Total score / came to same conclusion as well.

6 holes ok if we have time.

I like multiple doubles per team (including a coed team). How does it work if we each win one / lose one. That could happen.

Coed dubs / 3 holes -- then sudden death. First team out hits the road.

I have not post on this thread, but have discussed with both Todd and Sean and have been communicating with my team to appropriately represent their collective opinion. I apologize for delay in posting here.

NASA's position is that we have already earned a spot in the top 4. Head to head was the ...

Nice rationale, Lick.

someone spit on my putter...

Josh: that doesn't sound (to me) like someone on NASA, but if anyone knows for certain who it was, I would appreciate a PM with that information. I will also ask within the team. Not funny -- and not the message we want to send to our friends on Burgess.

Singles was ...

You can't really use the commutative property...
OK, Euclid -- look at it this way:

I would agree that if we actually lost to CL (which we did not), then it would be a 3-way tie because A beat B, B beat C, and C beat A. This is not the case, and we need to work with the schedule and tie breakers ...

If CL loses @ Cran and NASA loses @ Burgess, then 3 teams (CL, Cran, NASA) are 3-2.

Based on regular season play:

* Cran wins tie over CL based on head to head.

* NASA wins tie breaker over Cran based on head to head.

Final order: 3) NASA 4) Cran 5) CL

That's the way I see it. Correct me if I'm ...

If CL and NASA both go 3-2, and we never played each other this year, then how does CL have the tie breaker over NASA?

And yes, just giving CL some grief over not having paid. Is that accurate?

And will someone from Nasa potentially come down to meet Cran and CL on a certain day and do that?

Charlie: NASA beat Cran in head to head, so no additional tie breaker needed there. CL still hasn't even paid? Really? You should lose any/all tie breakers on that point alone -- perhaps not even be ...

Could just have the last weekend of the month be the default and have the captains have the choice to arrange an alternative.

This is exactly right. Matches are supposed to be in a target month. The last day of that month becomes the default due date unless captains can schedule earlier.

As for ...

NASA @ Burgess challenge confirmed for Saturday, March 31st @ Burgess.

PM sent.

Whit and I never discussed NOT playing. Personally, I thought we'd be OK given all the branches that came down in last year's storms, but the gusts were worse than I expected. Thankfully nobody was hurt. In hindsight, I believe many agree we should not have played.

Personally, I don't think players ...

Is there a point a team challenge should be cancelled due to high winds? Yesterday's match at Amesbury Pines was dangerous due to 40 to 50+ mph gusts - thankfully nobody hurt or worse. Yes, captains can agree, but it would be helpful if there was a generally agreed guideline in place. Most of the ...

Just an update to rosters: NASA has added two local Am-level players this season: Jaxon Sheehy and AC Heyward. Total players = 19

It will be impossible for AC to qualify for Finals.
