Photos: Ryder Cup WAGs enjoy their big night out

Because it's only contested over three days, the Ryder Cup doesn't get started until Friday, which, for golf fans accustomed to getting things underway on Thursdays every week, makes the buildup that much longer. As we speak, Golf Channel is currently running the piece on the time Tiger and Phil played together at the 2004 Ryder Cup for the 300th time, and we still haven't even gotten to the opening ceremony. Just get on with it already!

This Kingsford Charcoal commercial starring Bartolo Colon is Big Sexy’s finest hour

The Academy Awards have become nothing short of an abomination. This once-proud awards show somehow quickly turned into a four-hour night of pontificating and ass-kissing by a bunch of sycophants of whose opinions you should not give one shit about. “Oh my goshhh your dress looks so good, NO YOURS DOES! NO DAMMIT! YOURS DOES! HAHA, WELL MAYBE MINE DOES TOO. AREN'T WE ALL SO AMAZING!!” I'd liken sitting through this hot pile of garbage now to a root canal, but I've personally experienced a root canal and lemme tell ya folks, a root canal is more enjoyable.

THAT BEING SAID, there is one way the Oscars can win me back this February.
How, you ask? Oh, you didn't ask. Cool, I'm going to tell you anyway. If the Academy has one ounce of integrity, they will give this Kingsford Charcoal ad starring Bartolo Colon way-too early consideration for “Best Picture.” I'll even ..

PGA Tour caddie uses off-season to create Oscar-level movie trailer involving his boss

The PGA Tour's short off-season has been lampooned through the years, but one caddie took advantage of the (limited) time off and created a work of art. Geno Bonnalie made a movie trailer for a fictional film he dubbed “The Quest For Employment,” which features himself as well as his boss, PGA Tour pro Joel Dahmen. And apparently, Bonnalie is part caddie, part Steven Spielberg, because this thing is spectacular. Have a look:

Bravo, Geno. Bravo.
Here was Dahmen's reaction:

Dahmen and Bonnalie are coming off a successful campaign in which Dahmen earned nearly $1.5 million on the PGA Tour to regain full playing privileges for the 2018-2019 season. A season that starts next week, exactly 11 days after the conclusion of the previous season.

The 5 most American whiskeys to sip while watching the 2018 Ryder Cup

JIM WATSONIt’s Ryder Cup time again. It’s America vs. Europe for all the marbles, and you’re sure as hell not going to sit there and sip on French wine or a Belgian dubbel as Tiger goes head hunting for every pin and Reed and Rory come to almost literal blows down the stretch on Sunday. You’re going to want the most damn American thing you can drink outside of a melted-down rocket pop, and that, my friends, is unquestionably whiskey. So join us as we crack five of the single most ‘Merica whiskeys you can buy this fall, featuring everything from Prohibition recipes to good old-fashioned Canadian camaraderie. Even if Team Europe does eventually come out on top, at least you can say you drank your part.

Peak Anthony Kim, Ian Poulter discovers his powers and a bull-riding Boo Weekley: Revisiting the 2008 Ryder Cup

Harry How(Photo by Harry How/Getty Images)It was supposed to be a bloodbath, the 2008 Ryder Cup. The United States had lost three consecutive matches and five of the last six, and would be without its best player, Tiger Woods, who had missed the second half of the summer following knee surgery. The Americans had six rookies, only a handful of players who were considered in their prime and more than a couple journeymen. Moreover, the Europeans boasted a seemingly perfect alchemy of youth and experience, firepower and steady hands. It would be over before it started.
However, the players who would dress for the red, white and blue had other intentions that week, with the U.S. pulling off one of the bigger upsets in the history of the biennial event. From a bull dance to a downtrodden Nick Faldo to a star who never shined brighter, here's a look back at the 2008 Ryder Cup at Valhalla.
