  • 2022 PGA Championship - Talk - Pick 'em Game

    WELCOME - COME ON IN

    The PGA is here - in May - and it's time to pick and play. The format is ALLMOST the same as the Masters - except - you pick two players each day and both their scores count. Of your 8 players - 2 must be International players - at least not American citizens. For example Morikowa is an American - check their country origins on the LIST OF PLAYERS.

    If one of your guys gets cut - pick any other person in the field. I will make a nice PNG in Figma each day and will post the results.

        It's like game night and I'm re-reading, for the third time, the rules of a game that needs footnotes to understand. Please explain for those of us at the Scattegories level, how to play the damn game.

          clack never fails at making these way more complicated than they need to be. It's not rocket science, clack. We want to pick some guys and root for them, and we don't want to be screwed if one of our guys has a bad week. And we don't want to have to make weekend substitutions.

          Set some reasonable parameters, set a number of players to pick, and tell us how many players' scores we can drop.

          There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

            • Pick 2 people each day.
            • You can use 2 people twice - over the four days
            • 6 Americans
            • 2 International
            • One guy gets cut - use the remaining guy twice - or choose anybody else in the field to fill in for the dropped guy. Let me know - I'll sub it out.
            • The essence of the above is that two scores will be used for that day - just figure out who you want - or the default is one guy counted twice.
            • Both scores count each day.
            • The winner will have chosen people who combined have the lowest eight scores - over four days.

              Do you have to have exactly two international players or is it 2+?
              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                      By popular demand -let's Change the format.
                      • Pick a player for each day - each day unique - must pick four different players.
                      • If a player gets cut for Sat Sun - your picked sucked - you're out.
                      • Four lowest combined scores wins $20 - paid by clack.
                      • clack wins - last place owes me $20.
