"The Americans are too good", they said. "It will be a one-sided affair, Europe does not stand a chance", they insisted. "Just look at the rankings", they argued.

It's just like one of those crappy American films were the skinny wimpy kid ends up winning the game for his team against all odds against the kids from the rich side of town.

An Amazing American comeback tommorrow you say?, nah!! I may not believe in Jesus, and I may not believe in Allah, but I do certainly believe in Sergio and Monty :p

Is it just me? or does that make no sense to other people as well?

I didn't know what the living fuck he was talking about either. Watching golf is nearly as boring as playing it (as far as I'm concerned), but he's talking about the Ryder Cup.



Ryder-Europe aiming to close out comfortable Cup victory

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Michigan, Sept 19 (Reuters) - Unless golf history is made, Europe will comfortably retain the Ryder Cup on Sunday against a U.S. team which has been in disarray for the first two days.

Unlike his European counterpart Bernhard Langer, the U.S. skipper Hal Sutton has largely relied on his 12 higher-ranked players to make their own preparations for the fiercely contested biennial contest.

"These guys play big tournaments week in week out," Sutton told a news conference before Friday's tee-off. "I've just told 'em to be ready when the play starts."

They have proved anything but ready for an inspired European onslaught which left the previously fancied U.S. team looking at the wrong end of an 11-5 scoreline by Saturday evening after the opening 16 fourball and foursomes play. No team in Ryder Cup history since the first match in 1927 has lost with such an advantage although the U.S. did famously overturn a 10-6 deficit in 1999 at Brookline.

Oh no. The Brits beat us at golf. Everyone in America shall now commit mass suicide.

I heard they field a mighty tiddly-winks team as well. I bet Linalieweeicial will make a trash-talking thread when they beat us in that too.
