Just signed up this morning.

Looks like we won't have a contest this week, so I can relax and watch Kuchar collapse down the stretch again in the season-long contest we have running ....

Edit: Just noticed that the contest appears to be for a different week, which confuses me. Good news is that I can still watch Kuchar collapse down the stretch just about any week he's competing.

It's the US Open contest, which will probably end up being a $10 entry, so I imagine this one will be canceled and a new one started. I did try a $3 contest with bigger payoffs for this week.

No worries. A week off now and then is good for my wallet.

Is that $5 US Open league going to be canceled and a $10 one started? Or should I just join that one?

Jason Day is the SoSH7 favorite, on 4 cards. I admit I am a bit jealous of the 3 who identified Kjeldsen - seems like very good value at $6400, I somehow never noticed him.

I grabbed him. I am NOT jealous of the other 2 that did however.

I also took Bubba, the only one to do so, and he scares me--that $9500 was a lot for a guy that could finish anywhere from 1st to last.

I am crashing and burning in our league but right now I'm 5th out of 3,300 in another DK league.

Still hanging on in the other one--I have DJ, Sergio, and Piercy. All in top 3 as of now.

Piercy struggled some today, so I've dropped out of the money. I'm in 49th at 288 and top 30 get paid, and the guy sitting in 30th is at 293.50. I also have Dufner and Na, both in 12th.

My issue is Mickelson missing the cut, so I'm not sure I'll be able to catch up, I've about 8-12 fewer holes left than most of the contenders. First place is at 362. I need Piercy to play really well, he's only at about 3.5% ownership.

This was a very low entry league. First place is $1000, then drops quickly.

I'm up to 12th---5 guys all in top 8. I have 389 points and 11 holes left. Five guys ahead of me have more holes remaining.

I'm traveling this week, so I'll get the updated money list out as soon as I can. This week's contest has been created, we have one person sitting out, so it's winner take all this week.

I ended up winning like $5 and finishing in 18th out of 3300. Since it was a free contest, the prizes went from like $1000, to $100, to $40 for the top three spots. My final points were pretty ridiculous though. I would have finished 50+ points ahead in our league here.

Was in the car when I remembered and had to stop before I crossed the CT border and enter on my iPad. The marvels of modern technology never cease to amaze.

Anyway, I'm in. (Good thing I had an early meeting in CT.)

Daniel Berger - withdraws after the first tee shot on #1 - screws me in one of my Fantasy teams but not the sosh league.

- quick look shows no one drafted him in our league

Dammit Koepka.

I guess I shouldn't have reminded everyone to sign up this week, would've saved me some cash.

More participants would be great, and I am not upset to lose out on the small payoff. That said, we did pay out for second place at the US Open, which also had 7 participants (albeit at a higher entry fee). Mostly I was just surprised to see I was not getting paid when I just assumed I would - obviously I had not looked at the contest rules this week. My vote would be second place gets their entry fee back, or thereabouts, but it won't stop me from playing if we continue with winner take all.

Noren, Stenson: 3/7
Cabrere-Bello, Molinari, Piercy, Scott, Luiten, Sergio, DJ, Sullivan, Scott: 2/7
Spieth, Day, Kuchar: just 1
McIlroy: just me (Yay--so far.)

That accounts for 28 of the 42 owned.

My lineup would be cleaning up right now. Had DJ and Rahm with a bunch of other guys that are currently under par.

Usually enter a few contests with the same lineup and didn't this time...
