Schulz MVP…..Bud Light extends lead……Cycles win-finally

Schulz MVP…..Bud Light extends lead……Cycles win-finally

Good morning Bud Light sports fan!

First of all I would like to give a shout out to all of the men and women who work so hard at the Carroll Country Club to make our club experience what it should be. On Monday night the Carroll Country Club hosted their employee’s party with golf, pool and food. While they enjoyed a night for themselves your Carroll Country Club Board of Directors ran the show in clubhouse…on the beer cart…in the snack shack….at the pool and in the pro shop. A big thank you from this reporter to our employees and our board for all of their efforts for making the Carroll Country Club the place to be!

The night started with your Bud Light team grasping onto a six point lead over Captain Comito’s Stiffsticks and ended with your Bud Light team solidly in first place with an eleven point lead over Stiffsticks and a 16 point lead over the Soggy Subs with one week to play. Bud Light was lead by 2007 Carroll Country Club President and season MVP contender Mike Schulz who beat Pete Collison 12 to 6. Our sponsors Steve “Hans” Auen tied KKRL’s head disc jockey Pat “Jazzy” Macke 9 to 9 and Troy Auen tied Billy Badding 9 to 9. The only loss of the night came from Steve Sinnard who was beaten by Chad Kanne 10 to 8. Overall it was a 38 to 34 win for the Bud Light team and more importantly an eleven point cushion going into the last week of the year.

The Bud Light lead was extended due to Byron’s Boyz upset win over the Stiffsticks 39 to 33. Paul Reicks subbed for the sticks and was their only winner as Comito, Cross and Eich all lost. In the press room after the match Comito stated that it was going to be hard to beat the Bud Light team but they will give it their best shot next week. Don’t be fooled into thinking that Stiffsticks will lay down and die as they are former champions of Supper League and will fight to the finish.

Papa Joe’s Subway team came up with an impressive 45 to 27 win over Zach Johnson league leaders Prenger La-z-boys. This reporter is disappointed by the efforts of BUD ONE Jim Auen for losing to Captain Pick 13 to 5. Report sources have told me that Auen lost a club during the match only to have it found after the match in the bag of Captain Pick. Charges are pending in this case but with all due respect it would take more than one missing club to overcome a beating like that. In the battle of Hyvee store directors retired store director Randy Hockum rolled over for tired store director Randy Kruse 13 to 5. For his efforts Kruse was awarded two golfing balls for tying low gross with Papa Joe and low net team. Tom “Duffer” Duff was on a family vacation and the Junk Yard dog also won his match. This reporter would like to express his dissatisfaction with the current Hyvee store director for having 1,000 miniature Iowa State statues in the front of the store and there are no Iowa Hawkeye statues to be found.

It has been awhile but Carroll Cycle Center finally got back on the winning track. The cycles were carried by team MVP Joe Joe Hinners and Jay Drees. Sources tell me that Hinners was one over par teeing off on the par 3 fourth hole when he about took out Howard Drees sitting on his deck. The penalty gave Hinners a 6 on the hole to end up with a great gross 41 and earn him low net honors with net 30. Team captain Terry Ruchti and Dr. J.B. Greenwell were on life support when the electricity went out causing cardiac arrest. As you can imagine both were losers. The Cycles have a slim chance to still win the league as they are only 10 behind CCSB and one ahead of the La-z-boys.

Other news making headlines………..

• Best of luck to all of the seniors today playing in the Senior City Tournament
• In the battle of the Pettitt’s congrats go out to Nate Pettitt for capturing low gross honors with a 32 and beating Flying Bob Raue 11 to 7. Kirby shot 33, Wade 34 and Car Wash Todd 34.
• Congrats to Flying Bob Raue for the longest putt on 18. You may think that all of the planes flying around the course are crop dusting planes but in actuality they are covering the action for the report. Flying Bob has taken his job as the report aviation expert a little too serious and will be asked by the report to be more restrictive on the air space around the course.
• Captain Franey played for Miller Lite and tied Cole Reiman
• Long time subscriber, top local amateur, highly successful and more veteran golfer Craig Mertz was on an unapproved family vacation.

That’s a wrap! Go Bud Light!

In the words of our sponsor “This Bud’s for you”!

Fairway and greens to all
2008 Bud Light Captain
