Welp I hated the Texans who said this my freshman year of college at OM, I can’t lie. But after living in one of the most liberal towns in the nation, this kinda makes me wanna root for him in a strange patriotic way.

Reed vs Rory has more great golf potential. I hope they go ballistic tomorrow.

From the movie "Geronimo"... character played by Robert Duvall, if I recall: "Texans...lowest form of white man there is."



I know nothing about Reed ...just always chuckled at that movie line.

The Ryder Cup antics don't bother me.... Kicking your parents out of tbe US open because they had the audacity to attend and watch their son is another thing.

He's an absolute piece of shite to his family and his wife is behind most of it. A little digging finds countless relatives debunking everything the batshit succubus wife claims.

I've seen numerous cases like this where the wife/girlfriend brainwashes the guy into separating from his family because she hates them... And this is just another case


Oh... And yeah.. Reed has numerous accusations of him during college of cheating and stealing teammates money and possessions....

Rory clearly despises him too, and made no bones in his post game interview today that he intends to spoil the party for Reed.

I'll be tapping Into the old Gaelic roots tomorrow and rooting against the giant Texacan piece of garbage that is Reed

Reed is the kind of golfer the US needs for the Ryder cup. He's one of those competitors that can get other players off of their game.

That said I hope he never wins anything else. Just the Ryder Cup. He's a douche.

Yeah, it's pretty well-known in the St. Aloysius circles that Reed's batshit crazy wife and her side of the family have basically cutoff the other side from Patrick.

ETA: Facebook post from his sister two year ago.

quote:

“While many people may not know, I am Patrick Reed’s younger sister. Growing up, Patrick and I were closer than normal. Over the past few years, I have sat back and watched the numerous and disgusting accusations his wife, mother-in-law, and everyone now associated as his family, have made. Patrick is not the same person he use to be. He accused me of faking my two kidney surgeries to get him back into my life, completely disowned me, never wishing me a happy birthday, [congratulations] for graduating, [etc]. I have reached out to him various times and get no response. This is not a brother anymore, but a selfish, horrible stranger and it’s heartbreaking. He had an amazing life. My parents gave up everything for his dream of becoming a golfer. How can you win events and not thank your parents? They are the reason you even had your first golf lesson, went to events and spent tons of money so you would have the best possible chance of achieving your dream. There was never ever any abuse, mentally or physically, abuse of alcohol, or fist fights in the parking lot because he had a bad round. The fact that Patrick is allowing his new family to say that is insane. From growing up with him first hand, I know the truth. I am sick and tired of Patrick, his new family, and the media portraying my family, especially my parents, as abusive and crazy people. It is devastating seeing my parents hurt and [suffering] from what is being posted about them. It is time for the media and everyone to understand the truth. How can his new family say these things when they weren’t even there? I was. It is time for the world to know how Patrick is continuing to play the victim. I never wanted to do this, but it is what’s right. If Patrick was the same person he used to be, then he would see it too. I don’t want your money or anything from you. None of my family does. The money you’re earning is based off lies. Money is not everything. At the end of the say, your character is what counts. The character you are living, Patrick Reed, is not how our parents raised us.”

Personal opinion - it came from the people around him when he was in his early teenage years.

From the very beginning, people surrounded him and wanted to latch on to what was obvious talent. From one side there was the propping up and lauding that led to his (what some would call) overconfidence, and on the other side there were the “groupies” that followed him everywhere.

That overconfidence led to arrogance, and when he felt like he had too many (or unwarranted) people latching on to him, the only way to get rid of them was to be a dick. That turned a lot of people off. I witnessed that first hand on multiple occasions, and only in one part of his very turbulent youth (in regards to where he lived, where he played, who he played with, etc.)
