AND IN OTHER NEWS....
After 31 years at the helm, (with one year off, 2014, for good behavior) I have decided to accept the SIGL Executive Committee's generous golden parachute offer, and will be retiring from administering the league.
We were prepared to begin a nation-wide search for a suitable replacement complete with a grueling interview process......
SIGL INTERVIEWER: So, I can tell by looking at
you that you are breathing.
APPLICANT: Yes, I am.
SIGL INTERVIEWER: Great! When can you start?
But, there will be no need for that since Mr. J. Gregory Paone has generously agreed to step up again and take the reins. And TJ has agreed to stay on as an able-bodied assistant. They can be reached at paonejg@yahoo.com and tjgolfer@aol.com.
It all began in the late 1970's or early '80's when Sam Solari, Earl Cain, and Bob Thompson, owners of small Stoughton industrial companies (sheet metal, machine shops, etc.) decided that for their benefit and that of their employees, they would start a small golf league at Cedar Hill Golf Course in Stoughton, and thus was born the Stoughton Industrial Golf League. After a couple of years at Cedar Hill, they moved the league to Easton Country Club, where it has been ever since. So for almost 40 straight years, SIGL golfers have been teeing it up every Tuesday during the season at Easton. No doubt the league began with a dozen or so participants and by 2021 we had an all-time high of 68 players on the roster.
Throughout the years, there have been hundreds of golfers who have been on the SIGL roster at one time or another. But only a select few can say they have been around since almost the beginning. A tip of the cap to my esteemed playing partners Brian Murphy and Ed Finn, who are the longest tenured SIGLers, having joined the league in the mid-eighties (35+ years). And an honorable mention to our other partner Rick Walsh, and the team of Alex Turchette, Joe Curtis, John MacNeil, and Ed MacNeil who all can claim almost three decades of continuous SIGL play.
From the beginning, I have always had valuable assistance, and would like to acknowledge and thank friends Ed Solari, John Carrabino, Greg Paone, and TJ for their support through the years. And a special thanks to Bino for starting the website way back when.
The founding principles of the league were to have a weekday activity where the guys could look forward to getting together, play some golf, have some fun, yet in a stimulating competitive format. Through the years, we have striven to keep those principles in mind.
So, a new chapter begins and let's hope everyone is back for a great 2022 season. See ya then.
THANKS FOR THE MAMMARIES
SORRY, THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES

Week 17 was pretty much straight down the middle with 22 plus scores, 24 minus, and 4 even.
Congrats to rookie Tim Greene, who broke 80 for the first time in his golf career and who topped it off with a 1st Individual at +6. Bill Simmons had his best day of the year, also posting a strong +6, and will take 2nd Individual after a card-off with Tim. Ted Meyer gets on the board for the second week in a row with a sterling +4, edging out Nick Dejesus and John Hrenko in a card-off.
Ed MacNeil had a fine +3 and couldn't have asked for a better partner when he drew Bill Simmons (+6) as an alternate and they will be awarded 1st Team with their +9 total.
Bill was back in the act again when his +6 was complemented by a steady +1 from alternate Terry Moore. And the scorecards say that their +7 was better than the +7 of John Hrenko (+4) and the red-hot Mike Leonard (+3) for 2nd Team. John and Mike will have 3rd Team envelopes coming.
It wasn't quite like the one inch CTP recorded by Greg Paone last week, but a fine shot on the 4th got Big Bill Doonan to within 7'11" of the hole, only inches more than his height, for a CTP win this week.
The 1st was the only hole not birdied Tuesday, as we had six skins live: Co-star of the day Bill Simmons on 2, the always steady Bob Bourne on 3, sweet-swinging Mike McNeice on 4, the violent swinging Mike Bradley on 5, the resurgent Greg Paone (7), and fellow co-star of the day Tim Greene on 8. The 6th hole (Meyer, Hrenko) and the 9th (Leonard, Babyak, Simmons) were smashed.
We had 29 players sign up for the Backnine skins pool, but only seven birds were sunk, with three surviving. Chris Haslam will be rewarded for his 3 on the 12th, Tim Greene on 14, and the still steady Bob Bourne on 15. As required, the 13th was easily smashed (Curtis, Doonan, Murphy, Dugan).
Of the 22 plus scores this week, nine were "exceptional" (+3 or better). Seven of the nine won money, and the two hard-luck standouts who didn't cash were Nick Dejesus at +4 and Andrew Dugan at +3. Highpointers were Bill Simmons, Greg Paone, and Mike McNeice with 17 points each.
And finally, only one week left to the regular season. Sorry for the truncated season, but factors beyond our control (rain outs, wash outs, aeration course closure) made it difficult to get out on the course this year. However, we will have an increased amount of cash left over to be applied to tournament prize money, etc.
Today is the last day to let us know if you are out for the tourney. Thanks.
See you next Tuesday.
