Well yeah, that was kind of my point. He's talking out of his ass to try to sound smarter than the average bear, as he generally likes to do. Much like what got him into the argument with Duval.

Sorry, you put that up while I was responding and it kicked to a new page. Didn't see it. We clearly agree.
First off I should have put that in quotes to make it clear that is what Chamblee was stating. I also should have pointed out that he literally stated that any other random two players picked from the team would have been a better pairing. I just thought that was interesting based on the information that has been out there regarding DLIII using advanced statistics to pick the teams.
Obviously there is some disconnect between Chamblee's use of statistics and DLIII's.

In summary, Chamblee is a gaping cornhole with no merit or intelligence. He's all hottakez and nothing else.
The PGA app is live broadcasting the first tee and is currently panning the stands. Are you wearing any identifiable garb?
Not in the stands, on the railing. Basically facing the players when they feel off. Blue USA quarter zip red shorts and white hat, handsome face.
Apparently Rory is not into hats with no swoosh. It would have been great if DL3 had found Phil a US flag binder clip for his cap.
In match 3, ZJ with a little passionate swipe of the tee after ripping down the middle it on the 1st. Kaymer hit his in the rough - not sure where. This match seems huge to me. ZJ and Jimmy Walker are sort of afterthoughts on this team. if they can take down two of Europe's big dogs, it would be unexpected and really exciting.
3 groups on the course and we're already missing tee shots after missing half the introduction of the 3rd group. GJGE.
for those at work, rydercup.com and golfchannel.com have different streams going... did i mention over/under on work done by me today is approx. 6.5 minutes?
Westwood/Pieters doesn't make one shake in their boots, but I don't think anything can be taken for granted.
That said, I'm taking Spieth and Reed for granted. That is a legitimately good team.
I was obviously being a little facetious... but upon seeing pairings, #1 and #4 looked solidly US while #2/#3 were pretty solidly Euros. On paper.
Westwood not exactly shouldering the burden so far with the big rookie. He'll probably start to come around at some pint soon, though.
I don't know if I'd say #1 was solidly US - yes, Spieth/Reed is a great team, but Stenson and Rose are just as formidable. So far, US leads, but I had this one as a toss up. Hope I'm wrong. Of course, I also had ZJ and Walker actually putting well.
If they can stay up in the bookend matches and get a halve out of the middle matches I'll be very happy.
Ha! It might help them both to calm down a bit.Typo or do you think he is going to pound a couple?
Normally I'd agree... But Stenson a little hobbled made it move to "solidly" in my view. Plus, Reed lives for this crap. Obviously, "solidly" was a strong word when talking about going against Rose/Stenson.
I forgot about his knee...that's a good point. Spieth needs to capitalize on Stenson's mistake here.
