Let's annex the Sudetenland fourteenth hole

Huh.  I never knew that there was a Hitler's Cup trophy for golf:

The Hitler Cup, one of sport's most unusual trophies, has turned up in a businessman's display case in Glasgow, solving one of golf's strangest mysteries.
Competing theories have been aired in newspapers and golfing journals about the whereabouts of the amber-encrusted brass salver, which provoked a temper tantrum from Adolf Hitler when it was won by English golfers.
Weird.

    Heh.

    It seems they stopped giving it out because Der Fuhrer always got pissed off.

    Rigid ideologues often descend into temper tantrums when reality shatters their fragile, fantasy-driven world-views.

    Now I understand recent behavior in the MSM, in Wisconsin, and other 'blue' places.
