Except on days like today when Europe beat the USA of Americaland in the Ryder cup.

We were more betterer with our golf bats than you!

Gloating is pointless since the current form of golf was invented in Scotland. Come back when you have a football (not soccer) team that can beat one of ours.

Anyway...



Wasn't the most exciting Ryder Cup i've seen but was still entertaining. Americans really need to learn how to play on more challenging courses. Just making them longer, doesn't make them more challenging.

Or rather, you come back when you can play rugby without a plastic suit of armor and tights.

Comparing Rugby and Football to each other is like comparing Nascar to F1. There's very little in common, so you only make yourself look like an idiot doing so. Less of one though, than the one who brought any of that up in the first place though.

Maybe now they'll go back to the classic rules where black people weren't allowed on golf courses.

They're kind of similar and I don't care about either one of them so they have that in common. Smiley: tongue

The only sports I really care about are hockey (the field version) and speed skating anyway.

Thus proving beyond any doubt that your taste in sports is atrocious and cannot be trusted.

Ice hockey FTW.

On the contrary, it shows that I have played hockey and I enjoy the high paced, tactical game (and woman's hockey. 20 women in short skirts running around) and I'm Dutch so how could I not like speed skating?

Field hockey is far too slow paced by comparison to, well, really, anything.

Wait, people actually play golf?

I had always assumed "Playing golf this weekend" was old white guy for "Seeing the Mistress".

Mea culpa.

I heard Tiger was playing. Did he blow up in embarrassing fashion and then blow off the last few holes with a barmaid?

Either he blows or she needs to; it's the source of all his power.

Ahem. In most British golf clubs the standards are usually Victorian. No blacks, no jews, no wimminz; ties/cravats, cufflinks and spats must be worn at all times. . .

This, however, was in Wales.

If Papa Doc Duvalier had turned up wearing ripped jeans and leading a mangy dog on a bit of string, he'd have looked classy by local standards.

American golfers have no idea what a challenging course looks like until they experience the British Open. It's unfair really, to even send them over the pond.

I never said Europeans were better golfers. Just that their courses are more challenging.
