Either their ego is just way too big to allow considering others to be their equals,or they hate to fail (hate to make mistakes) so much that they hate to ever give up the steering wheel.

Wow,the Parker M guy really gave it up on the Nationwide T today.

I don't think it's either of that. If you are talking strictly about the Ryder Cup, I think it just comes down to the fact that the Europeans get along better and they are flat out mentally tougher than we are. I'll take the Scot, the Irishman, or the Brit to an alley fight any day over the guy from the Woodlands or Isleworth.
