I’m sure everyone here would be thrilled if China bought every NFL team/player and made them play 7 on 7 around the globe for 6 game seasons.


It would help "grow the game".

It would be a wake up call to the NFL that we want change.

I would really dig 3 quarter games and a new draft of new teams every week too!

PGA Tour is gonna have a tough time broadcast wise when LIV shows more shots in 30 minutes than Golf Channel/NBC/CBS show in their entire day.

Does the PGA Tour put up the entire 8.7M purse for the RBC this weekend?

I agree. I was like a lot of people here thinking I wouldn't watch because the field sucks. Then I realized that I watch a ton of amateur golf on YouTube everyday. I subscribe to all of these guys that couldn't make this field, and I'm still entertained. Just give me a ton of golf shots. So far, this is happening with Liv.

The best part is the shotgun start. You can watch the entire round in about 5 hrs and see all,the action.

That’s the ESPN+ version of the PGA broadcast as well.

It’s so much worse once it gets to Golf Channel and NBC/CBS.

They pay for the bulk of it via television rights.

This feels like a PGA event. Golf is golf, I guess. The PGA is going to become so petulant that folks are going to start resenting them. Hell, I don’t think most folks would even give a shite about this event if the PGA wasn’t crowing about it nonstop.

"the bulk of it" is pretty vague & makes the assumption that they pay 850M to the players seem incorrect

Would be nice if they kept the eligible spectator numbers small for a few events and play some of the great courses around the world that can’t hold 1,000s of fans.

See if we’re writing blank checks this is a good idea. Want to draw me in as a viewer? Try to get on Pine Valley for a tourney or something

No cut, 4 million individual payout if I win an event, split 3 million on the side if my team hits, as of now can still play the majors, shittttttt.

Pretty tough to pass up.
