...I didn't say it would be a good excuse!Originally posted by FiveTimes View PostTiger has/had an awful ryder cup record and his absence can only help the yanks.... I think it will be close and I'm going for 14-14.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.

The inside track is that USA have the better players and home advantage which is huge. Hence I would be amazed if Europe won again.Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostYeah, I am sure you have the inside track, and the bookies and I are barking up the wrong tree.

I wouldn't say they had the better players, but maybe they can get team spirit this year which has been lacking for the past 3 cups.Originally posted by oracleslave View PostThe inside track is that USA have the better players and home advantage which is huge.

Europe should be strong enough to retain the cup, but it will be good watching.Comment

So who's going to be top points scorer for Europe this year ?
Safe bet Harrington or will Mickelson do better without Woodsy ?Comment

Indeed, the US team have lost 5 out of six Ryder Cups since Woods started playing in it, the exception being the controversial Brookline match.Originally posted by FiveTimes View PostTiger has/had an awful ryder cup record and his absence can only help the yanks.... I think it will be close and I'm going for 14-14.
Before that, they'd only lost about 5 in 70 years.
The inside track is that the Tiger Cult has been a pain in the arse for the other US players.
Expect USA to flourish without him and win - because they won't keep getting told it all hinges on Tiger, they'll all get a share of the attention, and no-one has to partner Woods and get treated like a sub-human hacker. No more "F*** off out of the way Mickelson, here comes Tiger..."
(furthermore, the US are at home, and Faldo could make a complete c*** of the captain's job)
So put your house on the US winning it back!Last edited by stackpole; 18 September 2008, 15:48.Comment
