We just sat through an Olympics in China. They had their ski jumping on top of a coal plant and the brought out a Uyghur to light the torch. All the athletes wore masks because of the China Virus. Everyone can fuck off with their latest outrage for eternity.MikeDamone said:
Setting up competition is a dick move? Weird take.Bendintheriver said:
Who doesn't enjoy the free market? Do you think that doesn't make what they have done a dick move? Free market has nothing to do with any of this, it has to do with shitting in the palm of the hand that fed you. About getting into bed with the slimy saudi's and ignoring their atrocities against man kind and women so that you can make a few bucks. I hope that jerk off Ian Poulter stays out of this country for good so maybe there is a sliver lining to this afterall.MikeDamone said:
I enjoy the free martlet and competition. Seems like some of you don't.Bendintheriver said:I can't wait for the first player to complain about anything like the spoiled players here do. These golfers are the saudi's newest little toy, they won't like it when they complain like they have done about the hand that fed them here (The PGA).
Anyone think the saudi's are going to put up with negative comments about their new league?
I live on an island that has 28 PGA tour players living on it. Most I have never heard of. One hosted a campaign event I went to. He is a nobody in the PGA but his house was incredible and he is clearly doing very well with his endorsements. These guys aren't starving. Chasing the sun and playing a non-contact sport seems to be good to them.
Greg Norman is worth a half of a billion dollars. Does anyone think we would have ever heard of him without the PGA tour? It is always interesting to me to watch greed destroy the vehicle that put you on its back and drove you there.
The market will work it out.
I think they should make all the money they can but decisions are not made in a vacuum, there are perceptions and consequences. I think they look ridiculous. The new little saudi play things being led around by a hooded bearded one with a dollar bill on a fish hook.
What I will be interested in seeing is if any networks here schedule to televise. The uber rich saudi's don't care if they get sponsorship dollars but after awhile people who are so motivated will tire of watching this shit on pay per view YouTube. You think the lineup here is full of nobody's? Wait until a regular tournament for this LIV league. There will be 10 names and then 60 strangers.
It will succeed or fail if it's merits. You seem pretty fragile about it. Especially your moral outrage about the Saudis. I'm guessing you're still buying gas and own many things made in China. -
Antifa will be out to toss milkshakes at Bryson. They’ll ignore the fact that half the members at Pumpkin are highly paid Nike execs.RaceBannon said:Bryson just joined. Too bad he's broken

Still, their reputations are shot. I think the Masters stays with their required tour winnings requirements along with the PGA. Will be tough for a non-major winner to stay qualified.Bob_C said:
I was gonna say the opposite. Phil got like $200m and DJ got like $150-$200. Both are basically exempt in all majors for awhile. DJ would have to win ten FedEx cups in a row to make that kind of cash. He could win another 10 pga tour events and it wouldn’t improve his legacy even close to what another major or two would do.WestlinnDuck said:
A no brainer for the average golfer. But the douce Dustin Johnson has a new worth of $50 million and now he has more and a reputation he had worked pretty hard on restoring is now shot. Same with Phil. He will have a hard time replacing all his lost endorsement money. Americans don't like an uneven playing field unless you are a democrat. Very few democratic Americans left.Bob_C said:I would have sold out for the money to be clear.

Fragile? What the fuck are you talking about? My opinion differs from yours so I am "fragile"? FFS man, discuss the point or don't but stop with the bullshit about fragility or free markets. My points had nothing to do with any of that.MikeDamone said:

Norman and the saudi's aren't trying to play in concert with the PGA, they are trying to end it, and I hope they fall flat on their face. -
That's absolutely the first thing I noticed in this photo.Alexis said:
She's going to hook the shit out of the ball. No way to hit the deep right pin with that grip.PurpleThrobber said:
BTW, you guys are fags. -
