    I like RAHM

    First and Right.

    Respek to Phil with that final round.
    I wanted to root for Phil. Was a long time Team Phil guy.

    But I’m consistent in my anti camel fucker stance.
    The propaganda worked if they got you to turn on a lifelong rooting interest.
    I don't think it's propaganda, nor is my take on LIV especially controversial.
    LIV can suck and guys don't have to be pariahs for taking the cash at the same time. Phil is 52 and has 6 majors. Going for a $100 million+ cash grab for him is fine. LIV can suck and guys don't have to be pariahs for taking the cash at the same time.

    What are your thoughts on Lebron?

    The thing about LIV is that if the players who went just said, "fuck this, I'm taking the cash because ... I like money," I wouldn't have any issues. But the whole bullshit around "growing the game" and making it anything other than a money grab is just a bunch of lies. Taking the most money you possibly can for a job is the American way. Just own up to it and admit it.

    A few of the players have been honest about it, but most have been duplicitous douche bags.

    Brooks admitted he was worried about his health. He is a straight shooter

    For guys like Lee Westwood it's pretty much a no brainer to take the cash

    America has a long love hate relationship with the Saudis. The tour is using that to their advantage

    The tour would still be playing in China if not for covid

    To me the politics are a wash. The tour is still better in my opinion

    But it would be better with Brooks too

    If we are being honest, the best part (or one of the best parts) about Brooks was that he didn’t give a shit about the week to week stops of the tour and instead brought it all out for the majors. If he’s back, then it doesn’t matter what tour he plays week to week.

    The designated events have the guys interested. Maybe Brooks would have been too

    I like the guy with 15 majors and 67 other wins

    Brooks is out of exemptions after this year. 2nd place gets him in the Masters next year

    @RaceBannon do you see an alternate history where Tiger is more chill on the training and breaks 20 majors rather easily? Lefty still looks soft and I think he's go another major win in him potentially.

    Yes but then he wouldn't be Tiger

    So it's hard to say

    Moobs/Lefty looked fitter than ever.
