  1. It always amazes me when networks persist with universally loathed commentators like Faldo.  Surely, Phil can just walk into that booth and tell Faldo to fuck off back across the pond whenever he pleases.

    This is the right answer. Survive and advance.

    USA is 8-2-2 in Friday foursomes over the last three home Ryder Cups.  USA Ryder Cups are a completely different event from Euro Ryder Cups.

  4. Entitled and soft players attending an entitled and soft university located in an entitled and soft city.

    That said, Mack was as entitled and soft as they come and he made it work.  Just need nationally elite QB play.

    Bryson is top 20 in strokes gained putting. 

    Third best on the team after English and Xander.  If that is suspect putting, we are fucked.  Morikawa can't putt but he will put it closer to the pin than anyone else in the world.

  6. The starting lineup and formation were incredibly bizarre and further evidence of just how out of his depth Greggg is at this level.  Starts 4 CBs, benches Antonee Robinson and moves Adams to wingback.  Then we still don't track a runner and let a ball bounce in our box on the Honduras goal.  How the fuck does that happen?  Usually when the players have no idea what their role and defensive responsibilities are.  Completely inept.  I am a bit surprised Greggg acknowledged his stupidity at HT by reverting to a more customary lineup and formation.  Regardless of the ultimate result, Greggg should be fired today for his player selection and formation.  They both reveal absolute incompetence.  This guy has zero idea what he is doing and this cycle is a waste of time with him at the helm.

    Going forward, Greggg needs to keep it simple with both his formation and player selections.  It doesn't matter if you call it a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-3-3 but Adams and one of Acosta and McKennie need to play the double pivot or 6/8 with Reyna as the 10.  Pulisic should start on the left opposite Aaronson with Pepi up front.  Dest and Robinson are the FBs with Yedlin filling in until Dest returns.  Robinson and Brooks should be the CBs.  GK is the hardest decision.  Subs should come from whoever doesn't start from McKennie/Acosta plus Lletget, Konrad, Weah and Hoppe.  Sargent shouldn't even be in the 23 at this point much less starting on the wing. Imagine concluding that Sargent is a superior option to Aaronson on the wing in a must win game.
