For people saying we are going to get killed in Ryder Cup. We just had 3 of the top 5 baws. Maybe 4 if Ryan is picked. Don't count the USA out.

Once PEEJ picked Rickie, we all knew he was doomed.

Palmer won't be picked. His putter is not what you want in match play

Sunday Convo with Rory

Pussy was clouding his judgement last year. He does all but admit it.

Crazy to think he's only one behind Phil and Seve. That really puts it in perspective.

That and the $200 million Nike gave him probably added a little pressure. While not paying off in 2013, I'm quite certain that Nike is happy with their investment in 2014.

At this rate you damn right he will. He is confident as all get out right now. Tons of nitro.

His press conference and interviews have been pretty impressive. He's so calm. He knows he is playing to his potential.

How many back-to-back major winners have there been?

last one was Harrington I believe back in 08 or so. I think Tiger was the one before that.

It was all part of Rory's growing process in 2013. Sure, the Woziniwitski love affair was part of the problem, but he had a big adjustment that year. He won the PGA late in 2012. That gave him two majors and he also played well in the Ryder Cup scoring a big point after arriving for Sunday's match about 8 minutes before tee time. It's a huge adjustment to go from being a new up and comer, hungry to reach the top, and to finally be THE MAN. He was the #1 player in the world, and Nike kicked in that huge contract. With all of that came a ton of new fame and attention. Rory wasn't ready for it. Add in that he had new equipment to sort out to start the 2013 year, and Rory fell flat on his face. Let's not forget that awful toothache at Jack's tournament

Rory learned a lot last year, and he's talked about it a good bit this summer. In his words, he's ready to handle all of the fame coming his way. He wasn't ready for that last year. I don't expect 2015 to look like 2013 at all.
