Super League Predictions

Par4QC So then, any time they want to play an 'easier' field of golfers, they can just enter a KF tournament? I. Don't. Think so.
Not sure if they're eligible to play for a much bigger purse on the PGA Tour they'd want to skip that tournament and play for much less money.
Par4QC Hands were forced by just 1 person, not by 'goodness of hearts'.
I think you have to follow the money trail, and that only leads to one person MbS.
Norman probably doesn't have one dime of his own skin in this game, he's just their figurehead/puppet.
When all the new dust has cleared, I bet it comes out the Saudi's FIRST approached Norman and NOT the
other way around like some may believe. JMO
Eguller Some would say PhillyMick was the instigator
He's been at Monahan for years, and got nowhere, but he does deserve some credit.
His lack of results is likely why the defection to LIV was larger than expected.
Disgruntled employees were not heard. The PGA has themselves to blame, in spite of the finger pointing by them.
Par4QC Yes, just the facts ma'am!
This article is clearer, I think:

Spuzz Andy Ogletree. Hopefully he got paid some 'real' money up front to join LIV, so he can now chase qualifiers, IF Monahan sees things as he should. He was never a member of the PGA (??), never passed through a Q in order to play in any tournament. If it doesn't go his way in discussions, he'll either be staying/playing in Europe, or quit altogether, which he was already thinking about.
He said that he did not choose a LIV Golf event over a conflicting PGA Tour event. "I didn't like that I was grouped into this category of these guys that kind of rebelled against the Tour or chose a different path. I didn't choose a different path, I just chose to play in a golf tournament."
Very true, and if anyone could win a lawsuit, I'd think this is the guy. If it comes to that, which imo, should not. But, I only worked for Holiday Inn 23 years.
I would be fine letting LIV players back on the PGA tour if they go through Q school and or the KFT to earn their way back on.

This may explain the absence of the Japan players, all of a sudden.
Monahan has officially upped his bully game, to no one's surprise I might add.

Looks like Pelley has upped his bully game too:

Monohan is acting like a petulant 6 year old - If you go play in the sandbox with those guys you can't come back here and play with me in my sandbox. The players are just as bad - if you go play in that other sandbox we aren't friends anymore...My reaction to them would be if my decisions for me and my family mean you are no longer my friend, we weren't really friends in the first place - so go perform an impossible biological act upon yourself and lose my phone number...I think that in the near future Prince what's-his-name is going to start putting some pressure on some sponsors hinting that if Monohan isn't brought under control they might have a more difficult time doing business in Saudi Arabia...
Just my $.02 worth...
Saw Fred Couples whining about Cameron Smith bolting. What's with him and DLIII? It's almost like they're bitter that they were from the era that a bunch of international players came and snatched their majors out from under them. I can see why prominent players get attention, but do they somehow feel entitled to lecture more accomplished players like Phil, DJ, and Brooks? Or even players that have already proved to be their equal like Cameron, Patrick, and a slew of international major winners now on the LIV tour? I guess I can understand the old guys fighting for what they love, but it should be obvious to them that it isn't what it used to be. It's not just the players that have changed, the organization has changed and the world has changed.

And they are bitching/complaining as they clean up all their adjustable equipment. 
No one has the balls to come right out and say what they really mean. They are very afraid to do such. Maybe they should be, who can say for sure. As for the money the LIV golfers are making, as for the reduced days they play, they have to like it, and yes, they are jealous it did not happen in 'their time'.
Had this all happened in Sweden, they would all be there, beating on doors, wanting in.
They got no balls, to speak their minds, and are acting like nothing more than the fat kid on the playground. He will bully the smaller kids, but he will not do anything against the teachers, for fear of punishment.
Actually, they are all a bunch of pussies.
And, Gary Player. OMG. Worthless, conceited piece of shit. With a son following in footsteps.
Sneakylong Not because he's not welcome, but because he does not want to.
Just another of the extremely poor media reporters out there today.

Sneakydouche must have me on ignore
LOL
Kaymer ain't feeling the happy happy thoughts vibe of the Cocteau run Utopia, so he's bailing, like a pussy.
He's afraid of Rory Phoenix doing him in but Greg Spartan will take him on.
They need Phil Friendly to step up and lead the resistance with help from Associate Henrick.
johnnydoom the world has changed.
The sound like old cowboys bitching about the automobile.
STFU already, especially Couples, who acts like a cowboy, as he mosies his way to a career of underachieving on 2 tours.
Imagine owning a profitable business that has for years rewarded its employees rather handsomely.
So a guy comes in and opens a new business across town, selling the same stuff that you sell. And he lures your best employees away by offering them more money and less work. Which is all fine and well. It's a free country. No laws have been broken, the owner is within his rights.
Now imagine that new business owner demanding that you change your pay and compensation plan so that his employees can participate in the year-end bonus payout that your company's owner has made part of his employees' annual compensation.
Maybe I'm reaching for some low-hanging fruit, but this sounds an awful lot like socialism 101.
