    Reed is definitely in my top 3 professional athletes I’d like to punch in the face.

    The wife is at a bachelorette, the baby is asleep, a nice bottle of Zinfandel is open, a crap ton of sushi is on its way and this is looking like it’s gonna be good

    I have a sneaking suspicion that we're going to choke this away after coming out so hot (USA)

    Of Course I’m cheering for the Internationals.. they need to turn this around quickly.  The USA was there for the taking and they are letting them off the hook.

    A bit better than solid. 3-0, the best player on the American team.

    My hot tiger take is that he’ll have his biggest accomplishment yet and get back to 1 in the world

    The US is fat and happy.  They play only courses that they have approved the setup for during the PGA tour.  They just don't have any heart in team competitions.  A few might. 

    I just don’t think many of them can play strategic golf. You see it in the opens and team events when it’s not bomb and gouge. They can’t play golf on the ground 
    On second thought, maybe it just took them a few days to figure out some really really hard greens

    Oh for sure, far and away the best on the team.

    I think Tiger will be #1 in the world again at some point this coming year. Also amazing to think that he'll likely lock up an Olymipics team spot as well at this point in his career. Wow.

    So Tiger is a better captain than some folks thought, eh?

    Looking forward to 83 at either Torrey or Augusta...

    Or worse because technically they should have blown them out of the water. Hell of a win though

    The course was absolutely amazing though. Elevated the event. So many awesome and strategic shots you don’t see regularly. Quail hollow next...yawn...

    Like I said a month ago, "You pick Reed because of Sunday singles".  I knew it!  Ha.  No, he is a waste of talent.

    They won in spite of Reed and some odd pairings from Tiger.  Or maybe Ernie Els is that good of a captain.

    I wish I was good enough to really enjoy a course that made you be strategic.  With my skills I can only swing and hope for the best.    I have to practice like 4 times a week during the winter and then 5 times a week leading up to my Ireland trip in the summer.  Have to at least have some idea of consistency to not make a fool of myself and to get the most enjoyment out of this trip.  Don't want to take it for granted.
