A little spin on the other Ryder Cup threads.

I find myself in a bind. As an American a truly want the US team to take home a win this year, but, I am a huge fan of every Euro player, and I can't say that about the US players. Anyone else in the same boat?

Slightly. Anthony Kim is my favorite player, so it isn't that tough to root for the Americans. On the other hand, the player I'm told I look like the most is on the European team.

I find myself rooting for the Americans although my favorite player is on the European squad. With the economic struggles and NYC feeling like a funeral, a little bit of patriotism is good for the soul.

That said, get your head outta your butt, Sergio and start hitting some crisp irons.

Sergio is my favorite player; other than that, I hate every other European team player.

I've got to admit I've had a negative opinion of Hunter especially with his remarks about the Cup; however, he has definitely come to play and has contributed as a rookie. I've been pleasantly surprised with Boo and his Boo birds and J.B. For first timers, I'm OK. We'll see tomorrow when it falls on the shoulders of the individual.

There were some crack'in matches today. I found myself cheering for all the players. Each has had their ups and downs but certainly all the golf has been fun to watch. I'm a little disappointed with Perry and Curtis. They have had some excellent chances and have come up short. That said, so have some of my favorite players. It's certainly not over and now Zinger and Faldo have their work cut out for them tomorrow. Who do you match up? Like Garcia said... It's better sleep with the lead; but, the incentive and the "pump" that you get to come from behind to win is better. we'll see. Ole, ole, ole... USA, USA, USA... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... tomorrow we'll know!

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

      Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
