All this talk about Saudi blood money is amusing.

Our own government has assassinated hundreds or thousands and sent hellfire missiles to the wrong address. Most every government in the world has blood on their hands so the moral posturing is ridiculous.

Enlightening. "Not" a merger with LIV, says he.

Agreed, some players were big losers in this fight. But once Jay Monahan saw the Saudi checkbook his true loyalty came out. Sold out Tiger, Rory and Jordan just to name a few. So much for the PGA being ran by the players, Jay cut the deal without so much as a consult.

The Saudis just want to sportswash and eliminate holes 9-11.

Not at all.

LIV was the big winner and have essentially absorbed the PGA Tour and have full control.

[Worldseries27]

Let's hope they unite to protect all of our sports from international take overs
pass some damn legislation ! To do so

[Rich Iwaszko]

Someone in congress has proposed a bill to remove the PGA Tour from Tax exempt status,

makes a lot of sense..........

yes, i knew people who worked in the WTC as the company i work for owned a couple of floors, and a couple from my home town, with whom i have played soccer, but i don't remember him, were lost in one of the planes.

It appears that the Saudis bought the PGA, merger is a finance washing, and most likely, Moynihan had been bought with money and power. Its sports washing at the worst as the saudis trying to buy interests around the world. . but the outcome is in the future and the future hasn't arrived yet . .

the question from Golfing eagles is here as well:

do you care about the differences in other cultures from which you buy goods or services?
China, Saudi Arabia, Russia, etc.
Do you want people to follow the rules or do you want cheap labor at home in our culture?
undocumented migrants in FL?

same question i posted in about the new FL law with Edocument

22 days until former corp finance guy

I don't see how the players lost anything. They had a cash offer from LIV and some of them turned it down. It was their choice.
