The Barclays Picks Are Up!
 
Too bad it's not named Hurricane Audra...
 
Let's Get It On!The picks and early round one standings for this week's tournament are up on the site.  We chose 30 golfers.  Steve Stricker was the favorite, picked 12 times.  Jason Day was the second most popular golfer, showing up on 10 teams.  Adam Scott and Luke Donald made the cut for 8 players each.  Jim Furyk got the nod 6 times.  Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson were chosen 5 times each.  Lots of 4-baggers: Webb Simpson, Rickie Fowler, Sergio Garcia, Nick Watney, Matt Kuchar and Keegan Bradley.  No treys this week, but the deuces are Tom Gainey, Gary Woodland and Vijay Singh.

A pretty fair amount of uniques this week, 14, just one short of half the golfers picked.  Mike M. is the leader with 4.  Chris, Dan and Dave B. have 2 each.  Brian, Hugh, Mike D. and Dave A. check-in with 1 each.  The other six pool players are not uniquing it this week.

We have a very interesting set of picks this week, but kind of what I would expect coming down to the end of the year.  A couple of favorites and near-favorites, then lots of risk-taking.  You got to love this down-to-the-wire golf pooling.  Unfortunately it looks like the weather will be more bizarre than our picks;  A 3 hour thunderstorm delay today and a hurricane due by Sunday.  I wonder how they're going to get this one in?  If they were real men they'd play through the hurricane.  It's just a little wind and rain... but the wimps probably won't do it.  Nick, Heath and Jarrod would play through a hurricane.  Though Heath would probably get knocked out and abducted by bad guys and Jarrod would try to sue it.  But Nick... Nick would kick that hurricane's ass.  Audra would of course just stand around and look good, saying as little as possible.  Hurricane or not, you know damn well its gonna be a good one... it has to be, it's the Playoffs!

Let's get it on!

Later,
