Master's Side Bet

OK Joel/Excal... let's do this thing. $50 for best team, $25 if you pick the winner. Five players each, no Tiger, highest combined earnings wins. I'll even let you pick first.

Talon... I've won't succumb to peer pressure...

You are a wise man, and seemingly know your way around a bet. As such, I am sure you realize that the key to being a succesful gambler is to always have an edge... that is why I don't play the $5/10 No Limit games in Vegas... sure, I probably could beat them, but I know I can crush the $2 / 5 games. I take the same approach with my golf wagers... only take the ones you have a good chance of winning (no offense excal)... you should see the hole I am tearing in Shades' butt in our weekly bet... he's on pace to lose a couple hundo at this point.

So, once again, I respectfully decline.

Excal... my first pick is a defensive pick... i'll take VJ even though I don't want him in that spot.

I'm staying with the Aussies... Geoff Ogilvy.

I am going with Sports Illustrated's surprise sleeper pick to win it all...

Aaron Baddely

Damn you to hell! I thought I could sneak him in with pick 5.

I need one American on this team, so I'll go with the sentimental favorite... Davis Love.

Ok, here are the teams then:

You: Mickelson, Allenby, Howell, Furyk, Els

Me: VJ, Adam Scott, G. Ogilvy, Baddeley, DL3.

You have 2 of my frigging FPGPers you dick!
