McManus Picks 
Can we point out the fact that while I AM leading the women…I am also beating Dad…which means Dad falls into the women category. No offense.
I take great pride in having produced both the girl-child and the boy-child who is leading the whole shabang. Since Dad is doing so poorly we have to conclude that the significant sports-guessing gene is on the Schur/Irwin side. Who’d a thought? Maybe Nannie would have been the Shwammy of her generation if given the potential.
