Raymond Floyd grabs a hold of the celebration

Boo Weekley eloquently described the feeling the players had prior to teeing off for the Ryder Cup singles matches on Sunday afternoon:

"I feel like a dog that somebody done stuck a needle to and it juiced me up like I been runnin around a greyhound track chasin one of them bunnies."

Raymond Floyd even more eloquently described the feeling the players had after winning the cup in this week's

HIGH FIVE: Floyd keeps his celebrating between him and little Floyd.

Henrick Stevenson ... Stevens

Bush isn't the only president who makes a fool of himself when speaking. Former PGA of America President M.G. Orender embarrassed himself and the PGA when he brutally mispronounced Henrick Stenson's name prior to the afternoon match on Saturday. A former PGA of America President shouldn't have to read a card to identify Henrick Stenson ... especially if he has trouble reading.

Henrick Stevenson ... Stevens


OUCH: The PGA of America's former prez stumbles over the extremely difficult to pronounce name "Stenson", pronounced St-en-son. Even the happy-go-lucky announcers couldn't hide M.G. Orender's shame.

Ryder Cup picks have Monty making his 'O' face

This year will mark the first year since 1989 that the Ryder Cup will be played without Colin Montgomerie. Monty and his lofty fade have produced a 20-9-7 lifetime Ryder Cup record, which is impressive to all (except, of course, non-Euro-American golfers, who could give a shit less).

After the captain's picks were released, a reported "war of words" erupted between Ian Poulter and Colin in a west London restaurant. Both the golfers' managers deny the claim, saying it was completely made up.




















"O" SO DIFFERENT: Monty's O-face is not one of pleasure, but rather disgust after failing to receive a captain's pick for this year's Ryder Cup.

The son-in-law shot: Not what you pictured, but you'll take it.

The next time you hit a shot that didn't come off the way you planned but ended up pretty good, bust out the above line. This one works especially well if you are an middle aged man with a recently married daughter like Jack (Robert De Niro), pictured below. And it's even funnier if your new son-in-law's name is Gaylord Focker.

And finally, with all this recent talk of drilling in ANWR, remember to make your voices heard in this election season. Help protect the pristine landscape of the American wildlife refuge from pumpjacks, oil rigs and diesels. Work to spare those open fields, dense patches of trees, challenging slopes with slight dog legs and large patches of fescue. After all, that area would be perfect for a couple of sweet golf courses!

Think about the future, people!

Until next week ...
