I mean that’s a pretty strong statement. Hard to go back on that

Brandel is basically admitting defeat. That if the pga tour doesn’t do this they will cease to exist
That is so far different from choosing to take the money as a player simply because you want to be richer
Look, I don’t blame the players for taking the money. But what brandel is saying the tour needs to do now is not hypocritical from bashing the players who simply chose to out of luxury

The number of people on here pulling for a Saudi sports washing golf league to ruin professional golf is mind boggling. I figured most middle aged golfers here were Merica fuk yeah capitalists but I guess not. What we will end up with in 5 years as spectators will be so much worse than what we had. I truly don’t get why so many want to see the carnage.
I don't think there are that many LIV fans on here that are just straight up pulling for Saudis like you're making it seems. Hell there aren't that many LIV fans on here in general, it's just that they can be outspoken so it stands out.
The PGA Tour is the better tour, that can't be argued. But I do enjoy LIV, it's a good product whether people want to admit it or not, most people won't. Having music on the course and guys wearing shorts does not disqualify it from being a good product.
But one thing everyone should agree on, PGA Tour fanboy or LIV fanboy, you should absolutely hate Brandel Chamblee. He is the biggest douche in all of television, much less just the golf world. In no way should he have a job being on TV talking about golf. He should be an irrelevant podcaster, but TGC keeps him around for hot takes. He's the Stephen A Smith of golf talk but about 10x worse. AK's tweet is pretty retarded, specially with the spelling, but I'd be fine if every single person on every tour would bash Chamblee if that's what it took to get him off TV. Him flipping his opinion was just a matter of time since the player who's dick he has been riding since all of this started changed his tune.

So what you’re saying is that Brandel’s convictions stop if the tour’s existence is threatened?

I think he is saying choosing to do business with pieces of shite just to be richer is wrong, doing it out of necessity for survival is acceptable
I mean, I don’t agree with the blood money angle to start, but the above doesn’t seem that crazy or “doing a 180” to me

Couldn’t agree more. Some how all MAGA golfers got together and decided that a tour with the Saudis is the most American thing ever.
Times have changed for the grand ole party.

This is the #1 hypocritical thing to me, and it ain’t from brandel
“Who cares who runs LIV???It’s sport, just watch the damn product. LIv is awesome!!!”
Also
“I hope the PGA tour fails because I can’t stand the damn people that run it. Screw Jay!!!”

Regardless, saying that making a deal with them is wrong & then saying making a deal with them out of necessity is now okay is a total 180

Come on man, stop, this is a flip flop. This guy has made a living bashing LIV for 2(?) years now and still doing it after the merger announcement.
I mean this tweet was just from 2 months ago...
Going from that to "a deal with the Saudis is what's best" is a flip flop. He's been as hard against LIV and the merger as anyone, you know that. But Rory changed his tune so Brandel had to in some way.. He's a little bitch and shouldn't be defended by anyone.

Brandel is a raging douche canoe
But I just don’t think him or Rory really flopped much
They went from “frick liv” to “frick liv but if we don’t do a deal the tour is fricked”

Yeah, but that’s…like what this is. It’s okay to have a problem or not have a problem with it. But it’s sport washing and there’s no denying that.
Look, I'm a traditionalist. I wish LIV had never come along. However, Jay and all the other hypocrites made it extremely easy to side with the LIV guys. When you wrap yourselves in the white garb of moral purity, you better be certain your side is truly pure. Hell, my hero, Jack Nicklaus has done business in Saudi Arabia. Eldrick has been in business and played in Islamic countries before. When you have Shambles and Keith Olbermann tub thumping your side, you need to reevaluate.

didn't a lot of this start because the PGA Tour, under Jay Monahan's leadership, was not very open about where the money they made went? Aka, there were billions of dollars coming in, and the players didn't get to see where a lot of that billions was going, since they knew they weren't getting it?
