Yeah, I’m looking at 4 of 7 missing the cut with no one within 6 strokes of the lead heading into the weekend. Blech.

Actually, Smotherman snuck in at -2. Got 4 guys making the cut.

Here’s how you know that the Sony Open is an early-season outlier: my team is currently in first followed by DOTB.

I suspect that regression to the mean is coming soon. ;)

Impossible. I think it's been like 2 years since I had someone make a cut.

Noticed on the scoring spreadsheet that KH Lee isn’t being registered on my team for points purposes. Probably because I used his full name. Might want to correct that.

I seem to be having the same issue with S.H. Kim.

My frustration this week was my first 4 picks skipped it, and yeah I know a lot of guys do, but I was shocked Burns who played there last week, didn't hang out for another

It looks like in addition some players not being counted properly because of names that we only have 18 names listed under live standings, I think this same thing happened a couple years ago when I joined where something had to be edited on the spreadsheet to include the new players

Sigh, what a waste of some really nice Thursdays and Fridays. I hope my team is not going to be allergic to weekend golf again this year

Off to a great start: There are two undrafted guys who have more points than anyone on my roster.

Damn, would have been nice to get a win from my 7th round pick. Even a 2nd place finish would have given me the weekly win but once Ryder was the leader for the first 3 rounds I knew there was no chance.

This league has me sweating a Monday finish and openly rooting for Brendon Todd and Brandon Wu to collapse so I can win. What a world
You are a jerkface. This is like the closest I've come to even being in the running to win a week in years. You think you're sweating out a Monday finish.

I hope Justin Rose rolls an ankle.

Is my long national nightmare over?

I can't fucking believe it. I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and gosh darn it, people like me...

I think I have more points already this season than I did all of last year.

I finally had a decent week with three guys in the top 20 and one tied for 5th. Alive!

We're fine. My team is boom or bust. I generally draft around winning majors more than the season long standings. Right now we're busting but I feel confident we'll get it together and pick a few weeks off.

Score sheet hasn’t updated - still has Nick Taylor in the lead - but when it does I believe I’ll end up tied with @scottyno for the week.

I’m kind of pissed that 4 out of 7 missed the cut and cost me the victory. Then again, I should probably be happy that with 4 of 7 missing the cut I tied for first.

Still early, but scottyno’s team looks pretty strong.
