@jas1564@BobHarig What other organizations have successfully fended off a hostile incursion from a foreign government with a billion dollar war chest? Maybe the PGAT should have learned from them. ๐
@StephenRoche100@SmartGolfInfo I never said anything about meritocracy. Teams are based on nothing but adding up scores, putting that in the same category as real team sports is silly.
I donโt care if one event is different, proves nothing.
In real team sports players have roles and positions, coaches make decisions based on matchups, even in golf there is an element of strategy around pairings and format. LIV has none of that; four guys in matching outfits, add up the scores, yay. To portray it as anything more is disingenuous.
@NTPGolf66@grumpy_caribou@FowlerIamnot Itโs not a deflection because you are constantly browbeating people for not understanding the complex golf business like you do ๐ You accuse anyone who disagrees with you of lacking โcritical thinkingโ which is not required to recognize a mediocre product poorly executed.
@NTPGolf66@grumpy_caribou@FowlerIamnot You come here touting some knowledge that nobody else has, which is immaterial since anyone but the most delusional optimist has been able to see for a while now that this thing was going nowhere, even PIF sees that too. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
@NTPGolf66@grumpy_caribou@FowlerIamnot Arguing about how many people are in the photo misses the point of the original post entirely ๐๐
Without significant sponsors and 8-9 figure team sales - all predicated on a consistently large fan base - this was never going to work.
