What Players Discuss During Breaks

"I wouldn't mind seeing them stretch the series," said David Bach as we approached the 15th hour of play.

Chris Ferguson agreed. "They could stretch it over a year, and each event four days, and then the next World Series."

"There you go," Perry Friedman chimed in. "No overlap. Zero overlap."

Ferguson got a distant stare in his eyes. "The thing would be eight months long," he mused aloud. Everyone laughed.

David Bach suggested that there would be only one or two events he wouldn't play in such a scenario. Ferguson looked at him like he'd lost his mind.

"What event would you not play?" Ferguson asked.

"The no-limit deuce to--"

Ferguson cut Bach off. "Ok, besides the Ladies Event and the Seniors Event. There are two events I would not play."
