Hey, pretty well said, i think pga of america aka “we run these US home team cup events”, should take a que from the Masters to instill (demand) a little respect/decorum and as Rory said a higher level should be expected than other sports. And pick a better 1st tee host that chooses not to lead the fans in fbomb rory geer/cheers… and americans half-million-a-piece stipend/paycheck with a 60% charity of your choice 40 you’re own your own, sorta reeks… I know the Europe guys didn’t get a dime and their tour has “no pension/retirement plan” whatsoever. Most of the old school Eur team legendary cuppers lead a fairly.meager post-tour life compared to their us counterparts. No doubt to me they just want these cups more… Anywho, hope you guys are doing well. Our 4th little one is one the way in January. Tell Greg i said hello and certainly enjoyed seeing him the couple of times my wife and i visited his Southeast Houston congregation back in the day. Kim’s Dad was a staff elder there for many years. cheers, DP

  Yes, I did not see the so called comedian leading profane cheers. Whoever was responsible for that debacle should be canned. Unbelievable. I had forgotten the connection to SE Houston Church. I’ll pass along greetings to Greg. Ray and Bobbie Smiley, I believe Ray was also an elder at SE, passed away within a month of each other this summer. Greg’s wife Jill’s parents. I did not realize the American players were getting a payment. PGA is getting a incredible revenue windfall from all this Ryder Cup passion. Wish they were better stewards of what they manage…bt
