The dubs were fun out there, and I always seem to throw better during dubs rounds, but singles is just more fun for me. I don't spend any thought worrying about screwing anyone else's round up that way.

If you start showing up, we can play whatever Keizer wants!

I know people don't like Young because it has too many trees in fairways and it's nit a bomber course. That's the complaint I hear most, anyway.
As for Legacy, is that still a doubles league?

When it's not doubles, people don't come back.  Don't get me wrong, I like doubles too, but why does everyone stop wanting to play when it's singles?   I have a hunch that if I ran it as a doubles league every Friday, we'd be back to the same regulars and the numbers would go up.   Maybe it's just seen as more of a Rec league or something?

Thanks Eric...game on at 6 tonight!

So, do you mean 6?   Or more like 5:58 for the start time?

Just keep in mind that the individuals that frequent/post on this board represent a very small number of the active disc golfers in KC.  Don't get discouraged.  I've had discs find their way back to me after YEARS.

I just got one back from you that I hadn't seen in two or more years.

nice.

Any chance of doubles coming back to Friday nights?

The other half really enjoyed getting the chance watch & learn from the better players.

Or they enjoyed winning money by drawing one of the long bombers.

I'm pretty sure that beer is a slightly less polarizing topic than politics.

I guess I'm just trying to understand your question then, are tournaments on Saturday unusual?  I've played a lot of PDGA tournaments in my day, plenty on both Saturday and Sunday, even a few Fridays in there.

I'm not a big fan of the keyboard commando mentality, and this isn't a message board with much anonymity.

Are we truly so far gone that we don't have the decency to keep vendettas and personal grudges out of the message board?  Loomis, you yourself have said to me that we're very harsh to each other in comparison to other clubs.  We don't need the real-life arguments and dysfunction on here.  You can call me a sandbagger, or you can call Jack a crazy, drunk ginger, and it won't bother me at all (it might bother Jack?).  However, I DO like to think that if someone had a real issue with me, we could settle it as adults and not smear each in a serious manner all over the board.  You may enjoy reading that kind of stuff, but I'm not a big fan.  This isn't 4Chan.

Point being, most of us know each other.  Let's have some respect for each other.

Obligatory, "CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?"

Tact, in this situation, would be to take the personal issues offline.  There's no need to air dirty laundry or hard feelings on the message board.  Just my opinion, of course.  I've poked and prodded in the past too, but i don't let my gripes with others taint the general candor of the message board.

That's a BS argument Cooper.  Just because you CAN be a d**k, doesn't mean you should be.  There is something called tact.

Shape the arguments however you want.

Matt, I think that Loomis is trying to get a rise out of you.  Just maybe.
