OK, I missed the explanation for this, so I have to ask again. What is the significance of the player's name under the poster's screen name. I thought it was just the name of a player selected by the poster as a favorite or something. But then I noticed that Dante Bichette's name is under mine. What exactly does this mean???

It has to do with the amount you post. The higher the post count the better the player.

Well, your contract is attractive for the amount of your production, but I still don't think you're going to be worth that much unless he throws in someone like Star. |

Hey lark,
Here's a little simple tip for you on your putting. When you step up to address the ball on your putts, get lined up and ready like your going to pull the trigger and while your over the ball have someonoe(or you can do it) Drop a ball from you eyeline down to the ground.
The idea with that is you want your head/eyes directly above your ball while your putting. If you drop the a ball from your head and it hits somewhere other than where your ball/putter is then your not "over the ball well" and that can cause some bad putting. Just a thought...................

Star is like Pokey Reese...he is untouchable..but yes I am very tradeable..may be me and a poster-to be -named? |
