May 23, 2012 2:32 AM

UPDATE:  In order to accommodate the enjoyment of malted beverages without the worry of returning to a place of employment, Citizen Dique and Cinnamon!, captains of this year's Ironhead Cup, have rescheduled The Draft to 3:00 pm.  Same day, same location.

The Weekend of Man is proud to announce that the date of the 2012 Ironhead Cup draft will be at Noon on Friday, May 25th, 2012 at The Bulldog Lowertown in St. Paul, MN.

To prepare Citizen Dique and and Cinnamon!, the 2012 Ironhead Cup captains, Undrafted Jeff and The Bobocracy have put together a Draft Kit to assist them in picking their teams.

Dr. Chuck and Mr. Solheid (Hdcp:  5.0)

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Solid 5 pointer -  all phases of the game are great.  Smell can be distracting. Biggest Pro: Great putting. Biggest Con: Rancid gas.	By far the strongest player in this year's field. Biggest Pro: Model of golfing consistency. Biggest Con: What the hell is he thinking about when he stands over the ball?

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Like a wolf on the course….Lone Wolf McQuade. Biggest Pro: Surprising golf moxie. Biggest Con: People scare him.	Isolation during 2010 (MMX) leaves many wondering what golf game he will bring to the course. Biggest Pro: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xnfbh2_snl-hambone_shortfilms Biggest Con: May lock himself inside a villa with his neighbors again.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Excellent golfer.  Terrible gangster. Biggest Pro: Great shots in the clutch. Biggest Con: Doesn't know his own theme song.	Kept Mesabi team in it during 2011 Cup.  Mental hiccup on the final day. Biggest Pro: Consistent, low-handicapper. Biggest Con: 2011 mental state a fluke or could another collapse be on the horizon?

The Bobocracy (Hdcp:  10.4)

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Has The Bishop (Caddyshack) qualities.  Could conceivably break the course record, but ends up pseudo swearing and getting hit by lightning. Biggest Pro: The long ball. Biggest Con: Wrath of God.	Most likely the longest hitter in this year's field; Flashy but inconsistent game works well in match play. Biggest Pro: He is as likely to make birdies as anybody. Biggest Con: He doesn't play well drunk.

Kjoe (The K is Silent) (Hdcp:  10.4)

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
New guy - scouts like his demographic profile. Biggest Pro: Lives on a golf course. Biggest Con: Big Grey Poupon guy.	His rookie/unknown status could land him near the bottom of the draft pool despite his handicap. Biggest Pro: Lives on a golf course so he must be able to play golf. Biggest Con: He's a total unknown.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Dali Lama of the group.  However slow play kills the fun factor. Biggest Pro: Huge hitter.  Long.  Flowing. Biggest Con: Over-thinking club selection while discussing in length the finer points of film making.	While not hiting the ball as far as he used to, he still can make the putts, and that's what counts. Biggest Pro: Can compete with anybody if he brings his A game. Biggest Con: Might go missing looking for lost ball.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Can be a great golfer with the right caddie. Biggest Pro: Risk taker. Biggest Con: Risk taker.	His game is better than his handicap suggests. Biggest Pro: Team chemistry and sandbagging. Biggest Con: A recent move and two young children:  Can he focus?

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Golf game summarized by a Katy Perry song - Hot and Cold. Biggest Pro: Can get very hot. Biggest Con: Can get very cold…Hence the song.	After a few bright flashes to open the 2011 Ironhead Cup, he got down on himself and failed to contribute. Biggest Pro: Has the potential to scrap out a few holes. Biggest Con: Terrible taste in beer.  Summer Shandy?  Really?

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Golf is a big part of his "job." Biggest Pro: Stays within his game. Biggest Con: God complex.	A possible sleeper pick for this year, he is capable of playing anywhere from the high 70s to high 90s. Biggest Pro: You know what you are going to get with his game. Biggest Con: Shorter hitter;  with match play and long par 4s, the other team has opportunities against him.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Strong silent type of golfer…not sure what that even means. Biggest Pro: Strings shots together with the best of them. Biggest Con: Tends to dangerously mix over the counter drugs that wind up hindering his performance.	Guaranteed to play hung over.  Tweaks excessively after taking 12,000% of his daily B vitamins and a five hour energy.  Temper. Biggest Pro: Good for one or two surprise shots a round that could mentally break the other team. Biggest Con: He is known to break clubs on the course.  The most is two in a round. On the same hole.

The Phony Peroni (Hdcp:  18.0)

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Greatness when playing against Undrafted Jeff. Biggest Pro: Hitting the fairway at 95% clip. Biggest Con: Not always playing Undrafted Jeff.	Who would have thought that a middle-of-the-draft player would ice the 2011 Ironhead Cup for the Vermilion Team?  Biggest Pro: He can stay calm and help you solve a "105 pound problem." Biggest Con: Can he actually replicate last year's defining performance again this year?

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Has accomplished phenomenal things on the golf course… A few even related to golf. Biggest Pro: Fastest club speed on the tour. Biggest Con: Hulk-like rage.	Another of the long hitters, particularly with a sand wedge.  It remains to be seen if he can stay on top of the Golf/Booze Bell Curve. Biggest Pro: Big drives in the fairway could set him up for good holes. Biggest Con: Too much (or too little) booze and the wheels will come off.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Makes a memorable impression on the golf course…. Usually from one of his body parts. Biggest Pro: First guy there if a fight breaks out - so he can get a great seat. Biggest Con: Profound fear of beverage cart girl.	May not be able to handle the pressure of captaining a team.  Lacks killer instinct. Biggest Pro: He's a confirmed natural red-head. Biggest Con: Nobody plays better with clubs that have bent shafts.  His shafts are as straight as they could be.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
You think his lineage would produce a better golfer. Biggest Pro: Even temperament  - steady play. Biggest Con: Ancestry hangs around neck like a anchor.	Partners well with other golfers and was a surprise force in winning it last year for the Vermilion team. Biggest Pro: Can shock many with surprisingly good holes. Biggest Con: He doesn't really want to compete;  Gentle giant attitude.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Brief spots of greatness followed by long durations of terrible golf. Biggest Pro: Stylish shoe/bag combo. Biggest Con: Whenever you really need a shot  - he is not there for you.	After a lot of pre-tourney trash talk, his game fell apart during the last round of 2011.  Can he re-find his mojo? Biggest Pro: Mentally exhausting to the other team. Biggest Con: Mentally exhausting to his own team.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Amazing how well he golfs with one hand (the other is used for holding a beverage of choice). Biggest Pro: Whenever you really need a shot  - he buys a beer for you. Biggest Con: Too many bathroom breaks.	Last year's winning captain, his influence/strategy on team chemistry in the draft cannot be overlooked. Biggest Pro: Game seems impervious to alcohol. Biggest Con: He may not make it to the course if he can't find his keys.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
New guy - scouting report - MM will always miss 100% of the shots he doesn't take, and, statistically speaking, 99% of the shots he does. Biggest Pro: Confident attitude. Biggest Con: Bought clubs at Kmarts sporting goods section.	The only other rookie in the field, he boasts of being able to beat anybody, but he is most likely not talking about golf. Biggest Pro: Unknown game brings draft sleeper potential. Biggest Con: Strong attitude could backfire.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Professional level photography skills does not translate well to the golf course. Biggest Pro: Calm on the course. Biggest Con: Calmness.	Last year's losing captain, his game has improved every year for the past several.  We'll see how far he has come. Biggest Pro: Improving. Biggest Con: He still sucks.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
Enjoying his second tour at WOFM and already posturing for a management position. Biggest Pro: Will cover every square inch of the course. Biggest Con: Rich was overheard saying - "I'm not what I would call a strong swinger"	Took up golf last year and finds himself thrust into the Captain's chair.  Leadership skills will be tested. Biggest Pro: Can't get mad about not playing to his potential when he doesn't have any potential. Biggest Con: All those lost golf balls get expensive.

Undrafted Jeff	The Bobocracy
War Games-like mentality:  The only winning move is not to play. Biggest Pro: Impossible for his score to hurt the team. Biggest Con: Other Men may return to a smelly cabin if all he does is sit around drinking beer and farting all day.	He doesn't play golf, yet was taken ahead of others last year and cheered his team to victory.  Departed early for work, which could sour his potential this year. Biggest Pro: Can go beer-for-beer with any other team member. Biggest Con: Could douche out and disappear to go work again.

The 2011 Ironhead Cup Draft: Results and Analysis

April 17, 2012 3:22 PM

This afternoon over lunch, Good Times Johnny (captain of the Vermilion Team) and Nerd (captain of the Mesabi Team) drafted their 2011 rosters for the Ironhead Cup.  It was moved up from July 21st to take advantage of a deal from Golfsmith that required the teams to be known.  Here’s the draft results and professional analysis by The Bobocracy:


First Round

1.  (1 Overall) – Scholarship
After being chosen by a bartender to have the first pick in the 2011 Draft, Good Times Johnny shocked everyone and took Scholarship with the first overall pick.  The pick was jeered by many in the audience as many other lower handicap golfers were available.  "I wanted to take the guy who has the time and is most likely to improve in the coming month." explained Good Times Johnny, referring to Scholarship's unemployment.  He continued, "Fly Fishing?  F*ck that.  His ass better be at the driving range."

2.  (2 Overall) - The Bobocracy
One of the top prospects in this year's draft, Nerd went with the player bringing by far the most local knowledge of the Iron Range golf courses.  A very long hitter with a good enough short game should offer scoring opportunities for the Mesabi Team.  There are some lingering concerns with The Bobocracy's game however.  His play tends to be incredibly streaky, going from brilliant to horrific from day-to-day.  A high-reward pick could become high-risk, especially if he plays with a hangover.

Second Round

1.  (3 Overall) - Master Baiter Jason
Good Times Johnny opened the second round with a brilliant pick, taking Master Baiter Jason.  Jason's consistency and attitude will be welcomed to the Vermilion Team.  His ability to go beer-for-beer with Good Times Johnny should be a strong addition to the team's chemistry.  A lack of golf over the summer by paying way too much attention to his pregnant wife may mean a rusty golf game for Master Baiter Jason.

2.  (4 Overall) - Nondescript Doug
A low handicapper that nobody but Scottish Rob knows, Nerd went with an "on-paper" pick, taking a single-digit handicap in the second round.  Descriptions of Doug have ranged from "kind of an average laid-back guy" to "nothing really of note."  Time will tell if Nerd's blind pick will match the paper qualifications, or if the Mesabi Team just acquired their own JaMarcus Russell.

Third Round

1.  (5 Overall) - The Phony Peroni
Another contraversial pick by Good Times Johnny started the third round with the selection of The Phony Peroni.  Known to break down mentally on the golf course, The Phony Peroni will have a lot to prove for the Vermilion Team.  All is not bad though, as The Phony Peroni has shown tremendous improvement recently and could be defined as this draft's sleeper pick.

2.  (6 Overall) - Kahnke Kong
Nerd and the Mesabi Team could not look past Kahnke Kong's claims of being an "average 300 yard driver" in the third round.  Unmentioned by Khanke Kong was the consistency of and direction in which the 300 yards would be, and the number of shots required to cover such a distance.  Not an accurate golfer, Kahnke Kong's game could play well to the best ball match play scoring in the Ironhead Cup with a few low scores scattered throughout the round.  The other thing Kahnke Kong is sure to bring is really bad beer.

Fourth Round

1.  (7 Overall) - Cinnamon!
Almost universally analyzed as possibly the worst pick in the draft, Good Times Johnny went with another team chemistry pick with a pretty horrible golf game.  Cinnamon is a short hitter and a poor putter.  While many better picks were on the board and available, Good Times Johnny revealed an interesting strategy.  Cinnamon's terrible slice will be a massive advantage on all the dogleg-right holes.  Of the 54 different holes on the 3 Ironhead Cup courses, 3 holes play to the right.

2.  (8 Overall) - Undrafted Jeff
Undrafted no longer, Nerd and the Mesabi Team took Undrafted Jeff with the 8th overall pick.  A lack of play in 2011 may hurt Undrafted Jeff in the Ironhead Cup, however he has recently attempted to "buy a game" by equipping himself with a new driver and hybrid (utility club, not car.)  Hyper-competitiveness and an anything-to-win attitude could offer strong locker room presence.

Fifth Round

1.  (9 Overall) - Sporadic Jack
During the 2011 Ironhead Cup Draft, Sporadic Jack, who was projected as a high first-round pick, was taken by Good Times Johnny and the Vermilion Team with the 1st pick in the 5th round, the 9th overall pick after the teams, even those in need of a veteran low-handicap golfer, were concerned with Sporadic Jack's well-documented course management problems. Before the draft Sporadic Jack was quoted as saying teams that pass on him "will regret it once they see what kind of a player I am and what kind of guy I really am."

2.  (10 Overall) - Macho Rod
Macho Rod, who can hit a driver 280 yards and a sand wedge 250, is an interesting fifth round pick.  Macho Rod's putter is the make-or-break portion of his game and it remains to be seen which putter (literally, he has several) Macho Rod brings to the 2011 Ironhead Cup.  Macho Rod has also battled injury problems in past years, and there is some concern that he is playing on the same team as The Bobocracy,  who's fat ass caused said injuries.

Sixth Round

1.  (11 Overall) - Sir Mix-A-Lot
Proving its not what you know but who you know, Sir Mix-A-Lot was picked by his own neighbor, Good Times Johnny, with the 11th overall pick.  Sir Mix-A-Lot brings with him a decent golf game that is well-complimented by the beverage cart.  Critics point to Sir Mix-A-Lot's tendency to "mix-a-lot" the night before as a potential downside to his game.

2.  (12 Overall) - The Nordique
Another relative unknown, The Nordique slid down the board despite a decent handicap due to relative obscurity, just like most other French Canadians.  Speculation abounds about a second potential cause for staying on the board until later rounds due to The Nordique's inability to correctly say "Chowder" while in Boston.  A pre-draft email from The Nordique boasted of his game by saying "I want to thank the other team in advance for letting me win, because you've seen [due to the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals] what happens when Canadians lose."

Seventh Round

1.  (13 Overall) - Scottish Rob
Scottish Rob and his uncanny resemblence to both the Gordon's Fisherman and an Old Spice commercial started the seventh round with a pick by Good Times Johnny.  The lateness of the pick is most likely a result of recent complains about a sore hip, a lack of dedication to the golf (as opposed to sailing), and a golf game where no raw talent stands out.  Scottish Rob's strongest asset is that he actually is Scottish, and they did invent the game.  "How else are you supposed to keep yourself entertained while herding sheep?" asked Scottish Rob.  No analysts wanted to provide a strongly-obvious answer.

(14 Overall) - Critical Steve
A fractured shin bone lands Critical Steve as the last pick in the seventh round.  While he assured both captains that doctors have paced his recovery well ahead of the Ironhead Cup, it was only Nerd who was willing to bet on it.  Critical Steve is an infrequent golfer and has a rusty game that may not score well for the Measbi Team.  His uncanny ability to over-react to mundane things might create problems within the team.

Eighth Round

1.  (15 Overall) - The Swiss Miss-ter
Good Times Johnny again focused on team chemistry by taking his non-golfer pick earlier in the draft.  The Swiss Miss-ter is a native of the Iron Range and with a general dislike of people, promises an interesting persective for the other members of the Vermilion Team.  While analysts question taking a non-golfer while some were still on the board, Good Times Johnny has brushed away the criticism almost as fast as The Swiss Miss-ter brushes away chances with women.

2.  (16 Overall) - The Wizard
Clearly a pressure pick after Good Times Johnny took the Swiss Miss-ter with the first pick in the 8th round, Nerd selected The Wizard, the other non-golfer in this year's draft.  The Wizard's spell casting abilities involving alcohol have the potential to wreak havoc on the Mesabi Team.  Despite the concern, Nerd has repeatedly voiced his confidence in the Wizard.


Ninth Round

1.  (17 Overall) - Citizen Dique
Only recently taking up golf dropped Citizen Dique to the final round of the 2011 Ironhead Cup Draft.  Citizen Dique does bring with him the ability to drink cheap beer with ease, a common trait amongst the draft targets for Good Times Johnny and the Vermilion Team.  When asked about how he plans to contribute to the team, Citizen Dique answered with "I'm a self-contained unit."

2.  (18 Overall) -
With only one left on the draft board and the last pick in the draft, Nerd drafted a player-to-be-named-later.  it isn't yet known what this unknown player may or may not bring to the team, but it is certain that it will be uncertain.  "Party" was the simple response offered by Nerd.

 
Overall Handicaps:
Mesabi Team (Nerd):  21.75
Vermilion Team (Good Times Johnny):  21.0

The Officials of Man

April 22, 2010 3:01 AM

After careful deliberation of a select few Men, it has been decided to bestow the most honorable of awards upon an exclusive group of merchants that have been found to provide quite simply the finest products and services available to Men.

It is with great pleasure that I announce to the finest of Men the selections for The Weekend of Man 2010. While on this planet exists an unbelievably vast network of merchants capable of providing objects of desire to Men, only the best even come remotely close to the nearly unreachable standards of The Weekend of Man.

While traditionally commerce would establish roles such as customer and vendor, it is contrary to the objective of which The Weekend of Man seeks to accomplish. Our goal is quite simple: Create relationships. We will seek to build long-term value by those esteemed enough to reach the lofty Weekend of Man standards.

You can view the Inaugural class on The Officials of Man.

Maybe we should add meatballs to the menu.

The Bacon Explosion

February 1, 2010 6:54 PM

Any man dare attempt to cook and/or eat the Bacon Explosion during The Weekend of Man?

It's a "weave" of bacon that surrounds a layer of pork sausage that surrounds a layer of crispy diced bacon. This amazing bacon bounty is then coated in BBQ sauce, you know, for looks.

This might be too much for even the finest of men.

See the recipe here:

Reservations Made

February 1, 2010 6:47 PM

Men,

Man Weekend 2009 closed successfully, albeit cold, and so the planning for The Weekend of Man, MMX begins.

I have finalized our reservations and am happy to inform you that we will have the exact same accommodations we had last year. In addition, due to an expected increase in demand, we will add one more villa to The Home of Man. Should this become unnecessary due to lower-than-expected attendance, I will modify our reservation.

Bruce-in-Law has been appointed as the Treasurer for the Man Weekend Alumni Association and will be coordinating our related financials. I have been happy to inform him that I have negotiated a discount for our group in excess of 31% for our lodging from this year's rates.

I encourage you to visit regularly to stay up-to-date on The Blog of Man as I will post regular updates here rather than sending lengthy emails to you about all things Man.
