Bizarro World: The FedEx Cup
Dr. Peter Venkman: This city FedEx Cup is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Mayor: What do you mean, “biblical”?
Dr. Ray Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
Dr. Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes…
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!
That’s what we’re heading for my friends if this FedEx Cup thing continues. Ok, maybe the dead won’t rise.
Sure, Phil won…oh and so did Tiger. And this isn’t the Ryder Cup or the President’s Cup or a Cup o’Noodles(which are underrated in their deliciousness by the way)…but the FedEx Cup has done what no one thought possible – deliver a seemingly satisfying result in one tournament to Tiger and Phil fanboys alike. The end is near.
There’s really nothing to add to the commentary at this point on the general FUBAR‘dness of the FedEx Cup.
Sure, it gave a moment of rare mutual satisfaction for many in the golf world. But it feels similar to when the college football national championship was decided by different polls and you had one team claiming they were the champs, just like another. Unsatisfying.
Like most things, there is a good Seinfeld reference to explain it all. The FedEx Cup is the Bizarro World of golf. I’ll let Jerry explain.
I totally forgot about Bizarro world. How can you remember all this stuff?
Let’s just say I prioritized Seinfeld over Science in college. My parents are so proud.

Maybe next year the FedEx Cup could be a fusilli Tiger? Would that be satisfying?
