The United States Solheim Cup team did not lose to Team Europe because they had celebratory beers on the team bus Saturday night, with the score tied 8-8. Optically, though, it was not a great look. <\/p>\n
Of course, no one would have cared if they had just kept it to themselves. In fairness, that\u2019s impossible to do in the modern day social media age. Camera phones are out. The record button is always on. There are likes and reposts to be had. It\u2019s the world we live in. <\/p>\n
With all that said, this image of U.S. Captain Angela Stanford from Saturday evening is one that probably should have stayed in drafts:<\/p>\n
Even Kobe Bryant\u2019s biggest hater (RIP), Alex Myers, couldn\u2019t help but reference his famous \u201cJob\u2019s not finished\u201d quote from the post Game 2 press conference of the 2009 NBA Finals. The L.A. Lakers had just taken a 2-0 lead over the Orlando Magic, and a reporter asked Bryant why he couldn\u2019t even crack a smile. Those three words\u2014a stern look back\u2014followed, and the rest is history. The Lakers won the series 4-1, then repeated the following year in 2010.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That wasn\u2019t the only thing the U.S. side got optically wrong, either, this past week. We get into all of that, plus Shane Lowry\u2019s dominant win and a WILD pro shop viral video, on this week\u2019s episode of The Loop podcast below.
