Ok, maybe it's tough to be there in person, with such a big crowd. but then, so maybe is a Super Bowl. But for human drama, I can't think of an event that matches it. These guys absolutely play their hearts out. Top athletes who are playing for pride, for thier country, and for their team. The Ryder Cup is what sports is all about, or should be all about.

Some memorable moments...Stricker's putt for par and a halve on 18 on Saturday to keep the US lead...Anthony Kim's whomping of Sergio...Hunter Mahan's long putt on 17. And just about anything coming out of Boo Weekly's mouth. And even though the match was over before the Curtis/Westwood match concluded, that was a great effort by Ben over the back nine.

Ian Poulter was a Lion for the Euros in a losing cause. 5 points!

Congrats to the US squad, and Cap'n A!

Glad you enjoyed it so much. The only thing really good about it is that I believe it raises money for charity. I'm glad the US won, I'll leave it at that.
