He's handled just about everything poorly TBH....

You're right though, doesn't help that for the most part it looks like the USA team could give a **** less. Gutless.

I'm curious, what else has Tom handled poorly

The Europe team is just better (especially with the US missing Tiger, Dufner, Dustin Johnson, Stricker, etc.). There isn't a whole lot anybody could have done about that.

Pairings...who to play and who to sit.

No clue why he sat Spieth/Reed Friday afternoon...Mickelson/Bradley should not have played Friday afternoon Foursomes but should've been out for the Saturday morning Fourball. Playing Walker/Fowler all 4 sessions was a big no no...they were gassed by Friday afternoon and it showed. No clue why he ran out Simpson/Watson in the opening match either...the tone was set when they got trounced.

They care more too...goes a long way, esp. in the Ryder Cup.

Wanna know why we're not winning another RC in the forseeable future....

Hunter Mahan after blowing a 4-up lead: "I'm happy with how I played out there."

LOL.....

Hunter Mahan is a devout coward. Always has been. Nice guy, but he has the guts of a turd burglar.

The US team was clearly outclassed, but Watson did them no favors. I know it won't be a popular opinion on here, but the guy has always been an arrogant sonofabitch. Not surprising his stubbornness bit him in the ass here.

Paul Azinger should be the RC captain from now until he doesn't want it any more...only winning captain in the last 15 years...and has the balls and the guts to wear off on his players, not this gee golly shucks bullshit we keep seeing.

So sick of the U.S' players attitudes toward this...you would NEVER see the Euros do some of the things the American players do, they want to stomp our brains out.

Mickelson and Watson taking pretty open shots at each other during the post matches press conference...WOW...this has been more entertaining than the matches lol.

The Ryder cup: played every few years to remind the world that America cannot play golf as a team

Mickelson showing some of his true colors there. He might be right, but just not the time/place to rip on a captain in Tom Watson like that.

That's exactly the place to do it. Phil stood up for Mahan when he was a blubbering mess in the last cup.He's been an exemplary teammate

Tim Rosaforte was saying on the GC that Mickelson text him and told him he wasn't the only player that felt that way...sounded like the majority did.

If you watched the PC it really came off as Mickelson speaking up for the team and stating how they all felt...Bradley and Furyk both had chances to disagree with him and they didn't, speaks volumes.

Watson took some cheap shots at Mickelson too, insinuating he was out of shape and what not. It was pretty crazy to watch...

Again, it's not popular to say, but as I mentioned earlier, Watson has always been more of a bastard than people around the KC area want to admit.

Mickelson played fine this week. He's the senior player on the team. He's tried to instill more of a RC atmosphere amongst the young players by having them play money matches on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and he's made a habit of picking up his teammates, with Mahan being the most notable example.

Watson sat him for the entire day on Saturday despite multiple pleas to play. He'd earned the right to play, and if you look at the results, it's fair to say that the outcome certainly wouldn't have been any worse.
