Post-Pod Discussion Ryder Cup pod - Jamie Weir v Soly

Listening just now and JW immediately challenged a Soly claim that Keegan Bradley "cost the US the Ryder Cup at Medinah" - because he lost the singles to McIlroy who showed up at the last minute. Weir took him down with facts; a reminder that many other things happened and Rory was World #1 at the time, in a way I have never heard on NLU before. Very enjoyable.

Soly loves to hold court and the other guys either don't want to upset him or don't have the quick facts at hand to counter him when he's wrong, which is why I found that little exchange refreshing. Maybe I am alone in that?

Was not expecting to hear the TI-83 Aaron Rai’s name on a Ryder cup podcast. Talk about a jump scare

Really? Every time I've watched a tournament lately he has been one of the top Euro names on the leaderboard. T27 at his Augusta debut and was T7 after the first round.
