The 2018 Ryder Cup at Le Golf National (MERGED)

[Superbrit]

are we talking about boring arse soccer?? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

 

 

Hahaha! Soccer! I don't think anyone would be crowing about winning a soccer game. Pretty sure that's a kid's game.

I think the thing I watched was some version of that frat paddle game the Euros like to play, but without the paddle. Tons of really serious injuries that heal almost instantly.

 

Got to love it when Americans make jokes about football (Not soccer) when their 4 biggest sports are all played by about 3 countries each, yet they are the "world champions"

We are back to back world war champions as well :) but fortunately politics are forbidden from WRX so you can have your little fooseball win.

 

You do realise that Ben Affleck film wasn't a true story don't you?

 

Well apart from about 20 mins of it anyway

Yes, that is amusing. Also amusing is your lack of facts. For example, baseball is played all over the world including Europe.

 

"As of 2018, Little League Baseball oversees leagues with close to 2.4 million participants in over 80 countries"

We'll never hear about Tiger's plane party.

 

Unless he told Brooks at one point in time:

 

"And now we fight".

The poster said 3 countries play baseball. It's 80. Just trying to set the record straight. You have a problem with the facts?

No. If I did I would have said netball has 1 billion + participants in 150 + countries.

 

He's obviously taking the piss, especially in relation to football/soccer. I'm pretty sure he knows hockey and basketball are played in more than 3 countries, in addition to baseball. Although it is only baseball that goes so far as to name their domestic league trophy the World Series.

Every discussion that started from a troll post should not be continued because it won't end well ;)

[deasy55]

Can we stop going on about small time US sports and get back to the golf?

[frank700]

Who is going to win .........?

 

Not the World series ......

 

The Ryder Cup!!!!!

 

Europe 14 1/2

US 13 1/2

[elwhippy]

Three days and counting. I hope the weather is good, not too windy and the crowd are supportive but also respectful. The course is awesome and will test every aspect of the 24 players game. Accuracy is vital. Bring it on.

[MattyO1984]

The American team are out, their groups were

 

Tiger, Phil, Patrick Reed and Bryson

DJ, JT, Spieth and Fowler

Finau, Simpson, Koepka and Watson

 

I think everyone thought that Tiger would team up with Bryson but Tiger and Reed perhaps? He and Spieth were Tiger's guys in 2016.

[Superbrit]

I agree, and if America do win they could claim to be world champions, but they wont, so they can't :tongue:

[imakaveli]

What's the weather forecast? the majority of websites way sunny but I found 1 french website with rain on Sunday....

[imakaveli]

Nice touch!

 

[3whacker]

this mornings pods look interesting

 

Tiger, Phil, Reed, Bryson

DJ, Jordan, Rickie, JT

Bubba, Finau, Koepka, Simpson

 

weather looks on the cool side based on the attire of the golfers and those following them

[imakaveli]

Forget the pods, the big question is, is Paulina in Paris?

I'm pretty sure real Madrid crowed about winning the champions league, a final watched by 2 billion people World wide! Sorry I love golf but soccer dwarfs it into nothing very small!

[Canoe Paddler]

Does no one else see the irony of talking about how real a sport is based on participation, viewership and how many countries play it while on a GOLF message board?

 

It would be really nice if the trolls from both the US and Brit would just watch from the sidelines for a while so the rest of us can actually enjoy discussing the event together.

[bscinstnct]

Francesco said he hasnt drank out of the Claret Jug yet.

[imakaveli]

And i was responding to an earlier post about football (as in proper football) if me taking the mick a little bit about other american sports means i'm a troll in your eyes then hey ho, you carry on calling me a troll
