Thanks gents. Stanley definitely got my Irish up the entire time I was watching that fiasco. Over and over I'm screaming at the TV, basically, WTF IS HE DOING? Shot after shot. Pretty much scared my 10 year old son as he's never seen me that lit up about anything.
We (my co-owner and myself) already got a win out of Stricker. So this would have been our second win and put us in the league lead. More importantly, in my side bets, we would have been up 2-0 in three different bets ($150, $100, $100). In a league where 5 wins usually wins the league, to get two before the Masters would be huge. Then to have him hand the W over to a guy we have a side bet with? Instead of being up 2-0, we're tied 1-1? Well that's just perfect.
Luckily it's a long season and this happened early on. Ultimately, it may not matter at all. But it never hurts to pile up wins then let the chips fall where they may.
