  there will be a complete spectrum of attitudes, actions, and responses to the game being played.

  Try "Ryder Cup behaviour" at the Masters - you will soon experience limits to your "spectrum" in being ushered to the exits.

  There IS a certain behaviour expected by golf fans, and it differs widely from boxing or football or soccer. In the Ryder Cup, they obviously want more fan influence, so be that.

  Sadly, the development there corresponds to developments in other areas, dividing people in hate where they should come together in joy.

  The americans are taught to be loud and brash from kids . Confidence builder thing .

  Hmmm. Interesting take.

  When we first got to the UK we commented to each other about the high drama and theatrics of the Brits. Of all ages. But especially the children as they seemed to be given free reign. "It's all about the little ones don't you know." 

  The ASDA store was great theater. But it might have been a class thing. The nobles probably act more civilized while the common peasants are....ya know.... unruly subjects.

  That whole class thing, caste system, is enough to leave and start a whole nother Country over.

  No, we got over that in 1812 when we burnt your Whitehouse down while we were occupying your capital.*

  Plus, it’s not a British team, it’s a European one. You can blame them for Canada being not quite right, but we do have to accept responsibility for Australia.

  Seams the descendants of the guards and soldiers have gotten power and have in-prisoned the descendants of the criminals we sent their ;). Not even gonna go into your idea of how to get physical labour done. Still a bit touchy, even after Britain, again, stopped the slave trade around the world. You are welcome!

  *Did you not know your National Anthem was written on à British Frigate whilst it was sending ‘rockets bursting in the air’, however in the morning, the prisoner was pleased and inspired that ‘the flag was still there? C’mon man. No wonder you elected a vegetable to be your President, Jeeethuz, Corn Pop’s not gonna be impressed!

  I am floored you did not add in the tardiness of our coming to YOUR aid, and FINISHING what you started, in WWII

  Funny how historians write their own reality
