  1. lol at the euro fans waving their hats at Cantlay.
  2. They are just mostly showing the matches that are nearly closed out because after that they’ll be showing all of the other two matches. edit: but also why you said.
  3. Koepka and Scheffler now hold the biggest loss since the switch from 36 hole matches to 18 These are the biggest blowouts, by format, in Ryder Cup history for 18 holes matches. Singles Twice in Ryder Cup history a golfer has won a singles match by an 8-and-7 score. Both times, the winner was American. In the 1989 Ryder Cup, Tom Kite defeated Howard Clark by 8 and 7 (meaning the match ended after the 12th hole, when Kite reached an insurmountable lead of eight holes ahead with only seven holes left on the course). And in the 1997 Ryder Cup, Fred Couples won by an 8-and-7 score over Ian Woosnam. No European golfer has yet won an 18-hole singles match by more than a 5-and-4 margin. Foursomes The largest winning margin in an 18-hole foursomes match is 7 and 6, and Kite is once again involved. In the 1979 Ryder Cup, Kite and partner Hale Irwin won by that score over Ken Brown and Des Smyth. The 7-and-6 score has been achieved twice more since then. In the 1991 Ryder Cup, Mark O'Meara and Paul Azinger won by that score over Nick Faldo and David Gilford; and in the 2012 Ryder Cup, Keegan Bradley/Phil Mickelson defeated Luke Donald/Lee Westwood, 7 and 6. The biggest winning foursomes margin by any European side is 7 and 5, achieved twice so far. The teams were Jose Rivero/Jose Maria Canizares (over Kite/Calvin Peete) in 1985; and Woosnam/Bernhard Langer (over Azinger/Payne Stewart) in 1993. Fourballs The score of 7 and 5 is the biggest blowout in the Ryder Cup history of the fourball format, achieved just once so far. That was in the 1981 Ryder Cup, when Lee Trevino and Jerry Pate teamed to dispatch Faldo and Sam Torrance by that score. The European record for fourball winning margin is 6 and 5, achieved multiple times. What About 36-Hole Matches? The fourball format was added to the Ryder Cup in 1963, after the competition had switched to 18-hole matches. Therefore, no 36-hole fourballs have ever been played. But 36-hole foursomes and 36-hole singles matches were played prior to 1961. In fact, they were standard through that point. Biggest winning margin in 36-hole singles match: 10-and-8 by George Duncan over Walter Hagen in the 1929 Ryder Cup. Biggest winning margin in 36-hole foursomes match: 10-and-9, first by Denny Shute/Hagen over Duncan/Arthur Havers in the 1931 Ryder Cup; then by Lew Worsham/Ed Oliver over Henry Cotton/Arthur Lees in the 1947 Ryder Cup.
  4. I’ve seen how bad it can get. I was in the stadium when Iowa beat Penn state 6-4.
  5. It was 52-12 with 2 minutes to play in the 3rd quarter. Washington’s 2nd and 3rd string defenders gave up some back door touchdowns up 40 points has no bearing on their ability to compete for a championship. I’m not saying they will, but those late points after the game was well out of reach are meaningless.
  6. It’s even worse when you see the time of possession.
  7. If the zips can pull it off, it would be their first win over a power 5 team since 2018.
  8. Indy matches. 2OT. Northwestern holds minny to a field goal and then throws a td to win it.
  9. Indiana needs to match a td in OT ti keep it going against Akron

    It's the self righteousness. It’s the NBC contract. It’s because if they’re even sniffing the top 10 they’re given way too much credit and given every opportunity to play for a title they have no business having a sniff at. It’s their entire persona. It’s everything about them.

    “He has lost to Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Michigan twice — and everybody who beats them does so because they’re more physical than Ohio State,” Holtz said. “I think Notre Dame will take that same approach.”

  18. I have 2 I can add. 1. When I was 7 my mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I remember my dad coming into the living room to tell me and my sister. I remember pretending to cry because I didn’t really understand what exactly that meant but my dad and my sister were crying so I thought I should too. I was told that it was caught early enough and she’d be ok. The next 7 years were a roller coaster of “this has gotten worse” and “she’s going to be fine”. Multiple surgeries and chemo as it metastasized to her colon. My mom wasn’t fat, but full figured. Between the multiple rounds of chemo and the multiple sections of her colon being removed she was down under 90 pounds and had to walk with a walker. I vividly remember being 14 and frustrated/scared/embarrassed and being impatient at her needing to use a walker one day to get out to the car. She died not long after. I chose to not be in the hospital the day they unplugged the machines keeping her alive. That’s the last memory I have of her. I’ve never fully forgiven myself for that. During the last few years of my mom’s life, my dad’s mom got alzheimer's. It was pretty ugly for my dad. She died a year and 10 days after my mom. All things considered, my dad did a remarkable job leading my sister and me through all of it. Looking back at it decades later I can see how much that time period broke him. I wish I was less of a shit head for him through that and a few years after. 2. May 25th 2019, 3 days after my daughter’s 3rd birthday. My wife, 32 weeks pregnant with our second daughter, had gone to the hospital because she hadn’t felt the baby move in a while. It was late at night, our 3 year old was asleep upstairs when my wife called. There was no heartbeat. Our baby was dead. I had to wait around for my sister in law to get to the house so I could go down to the hospital. Holding my wife’s hand as she sobbed, delivering a lifeless baby was excruciating. After the delivery, the placenta didn’t detach and she was bleeding pretty badly. They had to rush her out to the OR. So there I was sitting alone in a hospital room, moments after they wheeled our dead baby out, moments after they rushed my wife to the OR, not sure if she was going to die or not, thinking about my 3 year old sleeping at home. That was the single hardest moment of my life. They were able to stop the bleeding and moved my wife to the icu. They weren’t able to get all of the placenta out so there would need to be some follow up procedure to take care of that. My wife would be fine. We comforted ourselves with the fact that she was ok, and after she healed up, and we mourned the loss we could have another baby. The follow up appointments and MRI showed that the placenta had grown through the wall of the uterus. She had to have a hysterectomy. There wouldn’t be another baby. A year or so after that my wife started having severe, unrelated, health issues in her colon. Probably 12 ER visits over 24 months, half a dozen colonoscopies, they thought it might be crohns, through all of the hospital stays and repeated rounds of antibiotics, she had developed recurrent CDIFF. Ultimately they got that under control and cauterized part of the inside of her colon that has seemingly been resolved. With all of the physical pain she was in through all of that they kept her on a pretty consistent diet of narcotics, which also made the emotional pain disappear temporarily. That combination lead to a pretty severe narcotics dependency. A year and a few months ago she took the steps to move beyond that, and a really difficult year later she’s in a much better place. she’s still not the person she was before the still birth, and part of me wonders if she’ll ever be able to be as truly happy as she was before that. Now, with all of that hopefully behind us, we’re in a position to start to move forward with surrogacy. Every meeting and appointment we’ve had so far has yielded positive results, but I’ve been so beaten down by the last 4 years that it’s so hard to have real genuine hope for something because I keep just waiting to be kicked back down again.

  20. Taking what I’m sure is an overly simplistic look at this, if the UAW is even slightly successful in negotiating higher pay for its members, doesn’t that put Tesla at an even greater risk of its workers unionizing? Tesla employees would suddenly see their union counterparts making 2-3x what they are making instead of 50%, and their stock options not gaining all that much value over the last 2 years. If someone making the average at Tesla, took the max stock option of 15% of salary and buying at 85% prevailing stock price every month for the last 2 years they would have turned ~$27k into ~38k. The average UAW worker beat that $11k gain by ~$80k in that two year span. How good are those stock options going to look when your counterpart is making 3x what you are? Alternatively, what happens to Tesla if it’s suddenly faced with having to double its workers’ pay? idk, there’s a good chance that I’m a moron, but it doesn’t seem like the UAW getting a pay increase for its members is a clear cut win for Tesla long term.
