And the 2007 PGA Tour Fantasy League is underway

Wow!

The 2007 season started without me and now I'm playing "catchup".

First, in December, I relocated to a very rural area of Southwestern Utah and we've had either snow or have been below freezing pretty much since I got here.

What's that got to do with golf? Everything... you see, I'm on a satellite connection and it can get a little spotty from time to time. Besides that, I do have another life, one of earning my living on the Internet, so first I work, then I play.

Ok, enough about me... now about the 2007 PGA Tour Fantasy League.

I joined the first league I could find, once I was finally able to get registered for this year. Silly me, I figured if I was registered last year, it would carry over... NOT!

I'm the 8th member of the league, and as usual I believe I'm the only woman... Shades of last year.

The biggest difference this year is that about 30 minutes before the live draft, our satellite connection died, not just for a few minutes... for 5 long days. Thankfully, there was an "auto draft" for those of us who couldn't make it.

Here's my initial 12-man team.
  1. Charles Howell III
  2. Ryan Palmer
  3. Carl Pettersson
  4. Heath Slocum
  5. Stuart Appleby
  6. Richard S. Johnson
  7. Geoff Ogilvy
  8. Jose Olazabal
  9. Greg Owen
  10. Brett Quigley
  11. Steve Stricker
  12. Bo Van Pelt
My two "franchise" players are Geoff Ogilvey and Stuart Appleby. That means they must remain on my team throughout the season.

Overall, for not having had any input, I believe I've fared pretty well. Next posts will discuss each of my team.
