Sorry but there is no fun in that. Correctly so the man who said that got thrown the fuck out. Idiotic fans the whole weekend and if you can't see that you must be one of them.

I disagree but it doesn't mean I'm not fun. It was distasteful. Much like your lite beer
See you in Paris 2018.
It was distasteful but funny. I wasnt there but i laughed hysterically when i heard it even though it was distasteful. Yes, i agree that guy is an ass and should habe been kicked out thoughI disagree but it doesn't mean I'm not fun. It was distasteful. Much like your lite beer

Most American beer is very shit. I mostly really drink craft beer. The only big american beers i drink are Yuengling and Sam Adams. Sometimes i'll have a blue moon. I also love Molson(which is Canadian) and Guiness(irish). But besides that, coors, bud, keystone, natty, genny, pbr, etc. all get big fat NO's from me.

At least we can agree on some things. Your taste in beer is good
if you're ever in Ireland I'll look after your craft beer needsThere are some awesome craft breweries in the states from anywhere with decent distribution around me in NY so i get to have alot of them. However, probably the best veer i've ever had is one thats only available in certain places in Vermont in packs of 4 16 oz cans. Heady Topper, it's called. My brother in law was up there for snowboarding and brought me back a pack. Let me tell you, that beer was absolutely incredible. I miss it.At least we can agree on some things. Your taste in beer is good
I'll get over to Europe soon. Need to do a few things over there before i get settled(if i ever do) like oktoberfest, go to some football matches, go to amsterdam, guiness brewery, etc.

I think we probably let them win this time as it was in danger of becoming too one sided. Normal service will be resumed in two years time.
Not quite sure why sky etc were making out it was best Ryder cup etc...it wasn't because with hours to go it was clear usa were going to win...the only question mark was by how much...only in first 90 minutes was there lots of blue medinah style on the board, but for the most part it was red...in fact, when you consider usa never trailed, the standard of golf may have been high, but the match was americas from the first session

Got to hand it to them there were some incredible puts sunk in those singles matches.
Two main games for me were the Reed/McIlroy trading blow for blow with both riding off the emotion of the crowd and the Big Phil/Sergio match where they were both playing some of the most incredible aproaches into the greens consistently hitting it to 6ft from the hole.
I know they were saying that Mickleson hit 10 birdies and still didn't get the win but I'd love to see what the stroke play scores would have been like as it felt when watching as if nearly every hole was being birdied just for a half point.
American team fully deserved it, as for the crowd troubles well they were to be expected. That doesn't make it right but it's not a suprise. In a perfect workd you'd hope that they celebrated their own good shots without shouting at the players mid-swing or hurling abuse at them. Some of the incidents were just disgusting and it makes me wonder if some of the american fans like @yankspurs are even aware of some of the abuse as I'm sure it wouldn't be reported over there in the same way it was over here

The sad counter arguement is the same thing happens when we host, but that is simply not the case...there might be the odd cheer when an American hits a poor shot, but it's never hostile abuse like our players suffer over there...in fact the atmosphere, while patriotic, is far more upbeat, positive and banterous...the worry I have is that with each American Ryder cup like this one, that people watching over here will decide to avenge it and do the same thing...I hope not...such vitriol obviously has it's place on football, but is just so wrong on a golf course where respect is a key part of the game

Masters this week, can't wait. Rose is great value e/w 25/1 with PP paying 8 places.
I've put 20 e/w. Who's everyone backing?

Haven't a clue at the moment, Rose is great value as you say but I'm also tempted by Bubba at 40/1, Adam Scott at 30/1, Rickie Fowler at 20/1 and I also think Tyrell Hatton is worth a look at 50/1.
So erm yeah, not quite decided yet

Looked at Bubba. Loves it at Augusta and coming into a bit of form. Good bet.Haven't a clue at the moment, Rose is great value as you say but I'm also tempted by Bubba at 40/1, Adam Scott at 30/1, Rickie Fowler at 20/1 and I also think Tyrell Hatton is worth a look at 50/1.

40/1 for a 2 time winner! Massive odds
I usually have one 'proper' bet and then a couple of smaller £1 e/w ones

That is great odds for Day, there is a bit of a classic script there for him to win after his mothers recent cancer battle
