Oh stop. You say professional golf has been killed, and it’s obviously because of LIV. So how is it not a LIV vs PGA thing? you're upset that someone challenged the PGAs mode of operation and it didn’t fail before it began. I don’t love the division in golf but I do laugh at the PGA die hards who think all the blame lies with LIV Golf.
-
Agreed. The PGA tour should have thwarted this when they had the chance by contracting their players.

Just because I like to play devils advocate, if the PGA had their smaller, no cut, elevated field events every week (which was a direct reactionary move to LIV) there would be a much better chance of seeing someone win an event and then follow it up with a last place finish or vice versa. Gary Woodland shot +8 today at tpc Scottsdale I guess he had brain surgery recently but he’s a top level player and former major champion So what’s your point with Mito? He shot 6 over… and? Are you suggesting LIV events are not played on professional level courses and all players should be under par every event?

I mean, he’s just a figurehead. No different than Dubya.

Show us where Jon Rahm touched you -
Hit all the ny/dal props. So I assume tonight will be a Jamal Murray scoring night and Joker will be all about the assists . Although to be fair I played almost every prop down

yep. I loaded my account before football season and have basically just been cycling the same $$. lose lose lose, win a decent bet, lose, win, lose. Lose like 10 in a row and then hit a 5 leg parlay etc, etc... . I withdrew $100 twice I think just so I could be like yeah! paid for a few rounds of golf!

I have the current leader and current last place on my DFS (Theegala and Hadwin ) Hadwin has played well here in the past too.

if the criteria were sheer stupidity, peefoamutoilet would still be up there for sure... but I think i'd have voted for Raven -
This is going to be a hell of a tough year for Tampa in terms of fantasy, I think. Between the Franco stuff, McClanahan injury, and the teams utter refusal to make any sort of big splash (not that they really need to),.... as mentioned in another thread, just glad they flipped Glasnow to an unowned team and brought Pepiot back in return as exclusive. Have been updating my spreadsheet and getting amped for the season

I was saying it was the battle cry of the PGA as players began defecting to LIV. this is fact. I agree, im sure it's going to bother Jon Rahm. I'm sure he also weighed out Ryder cup stuff since he cares a lot about that, and Seve and blah blah. Which is why it was extra funny when Rory immediately changed his tune about Ryder Cup inclusion.
-
1. I didn't initially quote you. I was making my own point. So we were talking about two different things Rahm pointed out. I was alluding to his comments about Niemann not being able to play in majors (aside from the Open)... hence why I was discussing major qualification 2. In regards to prestige, it absolutely matters. How much, in 2022 and into 2023 before Jay backstabbed them, did the PGA take the stance of "we play for history and prestige!" If that is going to be your battle cry, then it's only fair to point out that you've had a monopoly on it all. 3. the emotional stuff you are talking about, I don't disagree with. Never said I did
-
legacy and competition is another joke reasoning. again, the PGA Tour (which was it's own breakaway from the PGA because top level pros wanted more $$) has been the only game in town. they have all they legacy by default. I think some of the guys heading to LIV now are doing so because they see the writing on the wall, that eventually all roads will lead to merging anyway. Regardless of anyone's decision, and knowing the setup, doesn't mean they can't point out the very obvious faults or hypocritical nature of certain things like major qualification.
-
If the Giants and Jets were not so bad, I wonder if Hurts would still have NJ. Probably. Northern NJ will always split between NYG/NYJ while southern NJ will be all Philly.

Rahm does have a point, which others have had all along that almost every other tour has a path for it's players to play in the majors. I would say to this point the only reason LIV does not (aside from going through qualifying where possible or being past winners) is because the PGA/R&A is just bitter. Lesser tours were never a threat. as i've said before, when the PGA banned players who signed with LIV, it was odd because they do not ban players who play in euro tour events. why? because the euro tour is no real threat and for decades, the PGA has poached top euro talent. Their best guys come live in the US and end up playing PGA full time. They got upset that they might not be the only game in town, and handled it poorly. I think a lot of people get confused with being LIV fans when in actuality it's more about being tired of the way the PGA was acting / operating. When you finally have Rory Monohan admitting that LIV exposed flaws in the PGA operations, hard to ignore. My hope is at the end of the day, everything merges again and golf is in a better place.

I just don't think it's fun to go with all the usual suspects.
