Well the weather is getting cold and you know what that means — no more golf season.  We may have a few more weeks of potential play, but my own personal cut off is 50 degrees Fahrenheit.  That means we are in the shoulder season between golf and skiing.  I’m happy to report that La Nina has brought enough snow to the west to allow some ski resorts to open mid-November, but realistically I don’t see myself hitting the slopes until January (unless of course if we set up a “Guys Only” trip for Tahoe in December again).  So what’s a degen to do?  Drink obviously, but as you can tell by this post and Pipes’ missives below, it’s time to get back in blogging game.  Buckle up Monkey fans, a lot of crazy shit has happened since we were last blogging regularly, was there an election recently?  We also have a new provider of content as we are proud to add Irish Jesus to the site.  He only blogs when he’s not sober, so you can expect commentary from him all the time.

As IJ likes to say, Let’s Go!

Let’s get Moe some run support today.

Either Pipes’ ADHD has kicked in or he has conceded that he will never figure out what is inside Joe’s head as he has apparently abdicated the responsibility to publish the WWMD posts.  Never fear intrepid gambler, I am here to help.  You know what to do.

Pipes is slacking so I am filling in.

NEVER MIND, IT’S A DAY GAME.

I’m pinch hitting for Pipes again today as he is busy celebrating his freedom.  You know what to do.

Special SeaDick birthday edition. Look for me in the front row wearing my “Try Not to Suck” shirt.

I know, I know, you all are saying WTF SeaDick?  Where were the MMFUs over the weekend?  I say, keep your damn pants on.  I love you all, but there was wall to wall March Madness (and hockey and Warriors/Spurs and one of my daughters playing a garden tool in her Spring Musical — So proud) and, if we are being honest with each other, blogging comes well behind all of those items. As you can guess from the video clip above Dr. Evil (formerly Kool, but he’s no longer Kool to me after the weekend) has taken a lead in the picks.  As you can see below, we’ve wagered on 52 games, both picking 26.  Dr. Evil is 12-13-1 and I am 11-15.  So really just a three game difference.  You are undoubtedly saying “But SeaDick if it’s only a 3 game difference why is Dr. Evil cackling?”  A good question my friend.  The answer, as you may have guessed, is that the games where we doubled the bet have been killing me.  In those, Dr. Evil is  3-4-1 and I’m 2-6.
