No thread yet? Can't see one...

Well, it's been a bit quiet so far but it's come on to the front pages with a boom!

The team that is victorious on Sunday will be able to attribute their success to three factors: the influence the captains will have on their players, the influence the players will have on each other, and the influence the crowd will have on everyone.

So, after the captains have picked their pairs, and the players have exerted their influence over each other (for better or worse), it is the crowd that will have the biggest impact.

Team USA have only won five of the last 16 Ryder Cups. Four of those five victories have come on home soil. For the Americans to stand a chance of winning, they need their baying mob of imbeciles to caress their egos every step of the way. Like one of those brainless bds from your childhood, the one that pulled down your shorts during the school’s Christmas assembly (f**k you, Paul Jennings), they only have the courage to keg you if they’re backed up by a giggling group of reprobates. Team Europe needs to shut those groupies up.

They need to silence the pudgy, basement-dwelling, irritants, stuffed on cookie dough and pissy beer, pausing between mouthfuls of hotdog so they can scream ‘Baba booey’ until their jelly faces turn red.

They need to stun the angry, unwashed, Make America Great Again swarm, desperately gripping their concealed-carry compensators and belting out a mini-erection inducing ‘mashed potato,’ hoping to impress their cousin.

They need to smash the obnoxious dads, with their shiny teeth, Lego man hair, medicated ex-wives, and resentful children. Squeezed into their cargo shorts and boating shoes, they’ll bellow ‘get in the hole’ whilst high-fiving all the other members of the Dentists’ Big Game Hunt Society.

Team Europe need to silence these cretins quickly.

Sergio is enjoying himself this afternoon. This is great stuff now.

He certainly is, fantastic performance. Hope Justin and Henrik can keep their point, 5-3 will do nicely after the disaster this morning.

I'm starting to understand why yanks like guns so much. If some fat redneck kept screaming baba booey in my ear I'd shoot that fker in the face.

[hornetrider]

RPG would be my preferred weapon of choice.

[hornetrider]

The standard of golf is unreal.

Can't believe the Spaniards rescued that half point earlier, a real body blow that. Outstanding.

[hornetrider]

And Rory is turning into some talisman eh. What a player.

Sensing a bit of momentum here.... Putts dropping left right and centre

[hornetrider]

I'd love to see the putt stats for today. The yanks have been holing them from everywhere.

Phil is also playing a stormer.

Nope, criminal
