March 2003:
My wife is an avid golf fan. I am an avid NASCAR
fan. She complained that I got
to watch all my favorite drivers because they show
up every week. She says all her favorite players do
not show up every week My response was they had to in order to win the
national championship just like any other sport. Her reply, "There
is no National championship".. I looked at the situation
and found lots of good individual championships, but not any
overall national championship for all the regular
tournaments. Nothing that encourages all the players to show up every
week.
|
Thus, I developed a scoring system that I believe
accomplishes this. The lady in this house now
wants the rankings processed after every
tournament as soon as I put in all the scores.
She wants to see if her favorite players have
moved up or down in the standings.
I am now a golf fan.
Flipping channels constantly.

Bear in mind I am an outside observer that sees
things from a different viewpoint and I have a
tendency to express my personal point of view
whenever I feel it is justified.

Please note:
When golf is on, she watches it on the
27" TV and I watch racing on the 13" in my office, except for the Daytona 500.
