2014 Ryder Cup

[IrishGolfer]

Something to ponder regarding team spirit. The European team has always included the caddies in preparations. They travel and stay with the players over the last several Ryder Cups. They are treated extremely well. As far as I know the US caddies are left to their own devices. If the US won I can't see this happending.

It's pretty funny stuff.

If the US won, they would all be in a strip club banging seven chicks at the same time. That's why you never see video of it...no camera's allowed in the strip joints.

I'm curious what the ratings for the Ryder Cup were this year in Europe vs here.

Even when I was a die hard golf fan I really didn't care about the RC. I mean I would care who won the East Podunk Open on the Nationwide tour, but could care less about the RC.

I bet a lot of American golf fans are the same way and would be willing to bet deep down that many of our Pros feel that way.

Point is, it's a way bigger deal in Europe to be on and wind a Ryder Cup.

Apparently Tom Watson consistently screwed the pooch. "10 times worse than Hal Sutton or Lanny Watkins..."

Maybe I don't understand the role he played...but doesn't he just chose who plays what days?

Yup. I think he picks the unis too. Some captains delegate that to their wife though.

I'd make it look like Colombia's cycling uniforms...

You want to see Phil in one of those?

Well they all played like a women's cycling team...could it hurt?

Sure, so long as Amy wears one, too.

Rory McIlroy ‘bit fuzzy’ on mini-kilt photo

“Honestly? Honestly ... I don’t remember,” McIlroy said on Wednesday. “The timeline gets a bit fuzzy about midnight.”

Good article. Great quote of McIlroy - stepping up and taking a leadership role (at 25 yo). Aargh!! ... will someone give Adam Scott a shot of testosterone please.
