Only Pope Francis Not Yet Mentioned As USA Ryder Cup Savior

And I’m pretty sure at this pace Pope Francis is next on someone’s list.

Here's a quick roundup of those nominated or discouraged from taking the currently mythical job of helping Team USA not embarrass itself at future Ryder Cups...

Gary Williams says former Deutsche Bank CEO Seth Waugh would be an agent for change capable of bringing a “cache of humility” to solve Team USA’s various issues. I can't disagree, though I'm not sure the problems Team USA face are worth wasting the time of an ex-CEO who could probably make greater societal contributions than ensuring millionaires tell millionaires if they are playing afternoon foursomes.

Doug Ferguson nominates no one but is clear who should not take the job: Paul Azinger. Why? Because “his reputation only grows each time the Americans fail. Why would he want to risk that when there is no guarantee of reward?”

wants us to take a Team USA basketball approach and look to someone like former Suns owner and dour personality extraordinaire Jerry Colangelo to structure the Golf USA model. Why not the Pope?
