It was a four-day weekend stuffed with 27 featured tourneys—and even two holidays. The first of those calendar signposts was Valentine’s Day. And though their link was purely circumstantial, Sally Wang Goodall and Eric Boyd were quite the pair on Friday.
It’s hard to believe, but the inaugural Flo-Cal Faceoff is now just two weeks away.
I’m hard pressed to think of another weekend that contains two holidays. That’s the case this weekend with Valentine’s Day on Friday and Presidents Day on Monday. We’ll have featured-tourney action all four days, and should you win any of the games, your heart will undoubtedly skip a beat as the band strikes up “Hail to the Chief”.
As mandatory-race meetings go, today’s meeting to discuss Saturday’s compulsory contests was pretty uneventful.
The eight mandatory races for Friday were selected a short time ago. In case you haven’t seen them, here they are:
With NHC week now upon us, it’s no shock that eight final online spots and 24 Last Chance Tournament berths were awarded this past weekend. It was all part of a weekend that saw some excellent individual performances and (especially on Sunday) some fantastic finishes. The weekend winning got off to a quick start on Friday when a classic winner earned a spot at the place of his greatest triumph.
Confetti will be raining down not just on the Super Bowl winner, but on 22 of you this weekend as well…because that’s how many featured events we have going on here this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Just like the Chiefs and 49ers, it’s an even matchup on paper between Friday/Saturday (11 features) and Sunday (also 11 features). If the Super Bowl comes down to a late field goal attempt, you’ll see a lot of praying going on. You can kind of think of these moments as Kick & Prays. Such prayers are sometimes answered (Vinatieri), sometimes not (Norwood). So it is with Pick & Prays as well, and we certainly have a lot of those going on this weekend. Let’s start with Friday.
