Presidents Cup-Call it

Americans v. the rest of world (excluding Europe)
to me the Presidents Cup has always fulfilled two niches
1. find a team the americans can beat on a consistent basis
2. gin up a made for television "us against them" event that will generate boat loads of cash
I don't really care one way or the other, but at least it provides something do watch on the golf channel instead of those Euro tournaments with a bunch of people you've never heard of playing on courses that make my muny look like Augusta....
Americans win in spite of El Tigre doing everything he can to hand it to the other guys
