No, and even if they did, they didn’t, since he’s from the Pittsburgh area.

USA's first win since 2008? I wonder what that means......?All that bloody whoopin'-an-a-hollerin'
I think it's just a blip. There were 10 matches that were decided by one hole or all square and the USA won six of them and halved two. That means if three European putts had gone in and three US ones had lipped out the score would have been 14 all. Amazingly fine margins even with an apparently over-whelming score.
the teams are very evenly matched and all results will be tight.
That golf is a crime against humanity and must be stopped?
It might be forcasting a change of leadership from one side to another. This time the USA were TRiUMPhant.
The crowd of baying imbeciles swayed it, more or less as Willet forecast. That's what I thought, anyway.
Wet Spam don't need vice captains, the board members deal with all the vice.
That really is a USA thing IMHO.
I worked for a USA client a few yrs ago that were post start-up mode, and had between
30-100 personnel all in. And everybody seemed to be "Vice-president" of something.
When your company is that small, and the reporting structure that flat, how do you
need that many VPs ??
Because people want that **** on their CVs, ahem, résumés?
But it becomes meaningless.
When I was young, if someone said they were a "company director" ,
I was impressed. But when I went freelance and had to operate as a
ltd company, you realise that for a few quid anyone can become a
director of a ltd company.
If you are an company director at Apple etc, fine. Otherwise, meh.
Similarly so IMHO for "VP" .
Some of them have so many VPs that they need to create more 'senior' titles - senior VPs and executive VPs. The use of the word 'executive' to mean 'very senior' is one of my bugbears. Originally it was use to distinguish between the owners of a company and the hired help. The latter was called an Executive Director because he actually did some work! So an Executive Car is a worker's car......
Yes, there is a lot of ego on this (hence "Senior" , "Principal" etc) .
I never have need of them, and resist if a client tries to foist them on me
while working with them.
An executive director (of a company) is supposed to be one who has
executive powers (decision making/voting etc) on the actions of a ltd company
they are a director of.
