Watching U.S. fans being instructed on practice chants at Bethpage had to be the lowest moment of the Ryder Cup so far

There’s nothing more embarrassing, nothing more pathetic, than watching American fans at Bethpage being instructed to learn practice chants on the morning of Ryder Cup Saturday.

Practicing Chants at Bethpage? Can’t happen.

What the hell are we doing here? We’re supposed to be defending home turf, changing the vibe, clawing our way back into this thing and instead we’ve got some rehearsal session like it’s middle school choir practice.

Ryder Cup: Europe puts the Americans back in a hole on Saturday morning at Bethpage

It was somehow worse than watching Collin Morikawa and Harris English play golf and as sad as every American’s putter. Just plain bad. The whole point of Bethpage, the whole point of New York, is unhinged, raw chaos.

Boo, scream, let it fly. We don’t need structured chants like we’re trying to cosplay as Europe. The only thing that salvaged my mood was Bryson and Cam Young strutting out to “Hells Bells.”

That actually felt like the Ryder Cup. That was juice. The chanting practice made me want to wave the white flag and not even show up tomorrow.

Either just scream at the top of your lungs, or hand the whole operation over to an SEC sorority during rush week. Nobody on Earth runs coordinated chants like that. Anything besides this mess. We’re lucky the U.S. even made birdie on 1 after watching that fiasco.

Day 2 is supposed to be a fight. Not choir rehearsal. Stick to what we know: chant “U-S-A” and boo the hell out of Europe. That’s it.
