Good luck Brian!!!!!!!
I won’t be able to see any updates after today because I’m going away for 3 weeks, so I hope you win.
hahaha!
he’s in 69th place right now, kevins favorite number :D
Go Brian! Anyone who has any association with The Office deserves to win at life. Because The Office is delightful. Karma is at work if he wins.
Yay Brian! You’ve already made it this far… and probably much further. Kudos to you, dude.
Good luck Brian!
Good luck, Brian!!!
i love golf and my handicap is a 17, as of today. so you’re beating me, brian! good luck!
Best of luck, Brian! Show them those mad skills on da green!
I always loved golfing. But my short game sucks so bad!
Let’s hope the weather isn’t too hot there!
GOOD LUCK BRIAN!!!
(hahah shortbusdriver, nice comment!)
I always thought in golf that if your score is in the minus that’s good! Less hits to make the hole. I have so much to learn! (Hey…less hits…etc…THATS WHAT SHE SAID!) :)
[from tanster: please proofread and re-post. thanks!]
Good luck!!!! But isn’t a minus good? So why is he so far down?
Hey, we’ve got a picture now! Best of luck, Brian!
Golfing usually is based on the fewer strokes the better hence negative scores being good. But in this tournament they have a scoring system, if you look at the top of the score board you will see what earns points and what loses you points, IE +1 for pars or -2 for Double Bogies
So in this case it isn’t how many swings it takes you to complete a hole but how you complete the whole which earns you points. The more points you earn the better.
He may be losing on the scoreboard, but I bet he’s killing Barkley at Acey Ducey and Bingo Bango Bongo.
golf is confusing
good luck 2 brian
I just got back from the tournament. The scoring system is not the normal golfing one. It’s a different kind of system called modified Stableford scoring. It is possible to earn zero points or even lose a point or 2 on a hole. So a minus is really not good. But trust me, they are having a lot of fun out there. A few take it pretty seriously but most are just out to have a good time. Was there for 4 nights and it was a party at Harrah’s every night! Don’t know how some of them got up for their early tee times…
I went there today and got to talk to him and he took a picture with me. He is a really nice guy.
At least he beat Charles Barkley (anyone who saw highlights of Barkley’s swing knows what I mean – OMG!). I’m sure Brian would have had a better score if it weren’t such a fun event – I know I wouldn’t have been able to focus on golf!
Brian Brian Brian… I’m a huge fan but being that I’m from San Francisco, that Dodgers cap has got to go. I kid, good luck!
