Captain America: Keegan Bradley Grabbed A US Flag From A Fan And Ran Up The 18th Fairway With It, Got All Of Bethpage Fired Up

Oh fuck yeah, Keegan. If we win this thing, this is the image I will have in my head. It's perfect because nobody in America cares about the Ryder Cup more than Keegan Bradley. I don't even think that's hyperbolic or anything, it's just how he's wired. It's why he's the perfect captain. Plus, he's got Rick Pitino on his side

Nobody has embraced being the captain of this team like Keegan Bradley. He was put in the brutal spot of having to pick himself to play, something that would happen almost any other year and now is the leader of a team that HAS to win. It's been talked about, but this is that important of a Ryder Cup. You can't lose at home, coming off the ass kicking in Rome, with the world's best golfer on your team. 

He's also embracing the whole people's course

Not sure the whole point there, but fuck it. If Keegan Bradley thinks a good idea I'm blindly agreeing until he forces me to think otherwise. He's done everything right to this point. I don't really have any problems with the 6 he picked for the team, you can argue a couple guys, but it's all too close to have any real misses.

We're less than an hour from finding out the morning pairings. Give me Bryson and JT right off the bat as the first pair and give me Keegan running around with a flag to start us off.
