@ricksinger7070 @JonnyRoot_ How the fuck would he feel vindicated? Are you all there Rick? What legacy does that kid have? Besides for being a case study of how pride can ruin your life.
English

@WolfSprintSaint @JonnyRoot_ Right. Such a ridiculous comparison. There are over 40 tournaments to choose from. By the end of the season, Rory will pay in more tournaments than the LIV schedule.
English

Rory skipping tournaments and LIV players leaving the Tour are two completely different things. PGA guys have always managed their schedules, especially the bigger names. That’s not the same as jumping to a rival league throwing around Saudi money. And the “teacher’s pet” stuff is lazy. Rory was one of the few dudes actually willing to speak up while everybody else tried to play both sides. Bryson took the LIV money, which is fine, but people acting mad because Rory called it what it was need to get over it.
English

@VickVinegar007 @JonnyRoot_ Some players care more about legacy and competition than money. Nothing wrong with that. And given that LIV will probably fold within the next year, my guess is that Zalatoris feels vindicated.
English

@JonnyRoot_ If Rory didn’t get that 9 figure Nike deal early in his career.. he would’ve accepted the LIV offer also. He’s bitter about the easy money. Still can’t get over Will Zalatoris turning down $100million because of his pride. Imagine living life knowing what could have been.

@UsedGolfFacts @Thatll_Play @BenColeyGolf Tried something new & put more money into it than any profit-oriented investor would. There was never a way this would make money. Crazy upfront payments, way too high purses. And with that, virtually no ratings and a couple of successful events in places that have no pro golf.
English

@ricksinger7070 @Thatll_Play @BenColeyGolf I think they proved that LIV’s approach was not viable for the PIF.
They did not prove that team golf or international golf were non-viable.
The question is: did their billions of dollars of outlay create anything of value? Personally, I think the answer to that is “yes.”
English

The PGA Tour put all of their eggs in the “LIV is funded with blood money!” basket. It was a very effective narrative that the Mainstream Golf Media was happy to push.
But if LIV finds an outside investor, what’s the argument against its place in professional golf going forward?
Flushing It@flushingitgolf
Bryson DeChambeau has been attending potential investor pitches/meetings with LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil and has been more involved with the business side of the league than he ever has in the past. “As long as LIV is here, I would figure out a way for it to make sense.”
English

@UsedGolfFacts @Thatll_Play @BenColeyGolf I think they all learned through LIV that it's not viable. The way LIV executed, with huge upfront payments and purses that were not justifiable, has probably scared serious investors away.
English

@Thatll_Play @BenColeyGolf There have been multiple groups of investors that have floated the idea of creating something similar to LIV over the last few decades.
Whether you are able to see it or not, there are people that believe there’s some value in the concept of creating a league with team golf.
English

@peterjkostis There is no investor who will be willing to lose the millions or billions it takes to pay huge purses, crazy appearance contracts and an on-site buildout like the use now. If they continue, it will be a shell of what they are now. It's about math.

@barrysvrluga Going from my old favorite sports section to my new favorite sports section...congratulations!
English

@jcarter54 @bluecheckdrew @Rachel__Nichols @TheHerd Isn't gameday the only thing that matters if you're....going to the game?
English

@bluecheckdrew @Rachel__Nichols @TheHerd Yes it is from downtown. Maybe not on GAMEDAY if you don't go early
English

@Moussak_22 @Coach_Manalac @CoachCandle @Coach_Chance @alexgleitman You'll do great there. They're getting a talented, hard working athlete. Good luck!
English

@Moussak_22 @alexgleitman @CoachAlexCoombs @Coachlanese13 @farrellportal Hey @Moussak_22 , Rutgers could use a corner like you. Good luck wherever you wind up.
English

@Riley_Gaines_ It's treasonous to wave another country's flag? Do you understand what treason actually is or do you just toss that out against anyone you don't like or doesn't conform to you way of thinking? In case you need help, this is not treason or even anywhere close.
English

@ClayTravis Hope you're enjoying that vat of Kool Aid you must be drinking. Sorry about Tennessee football....again.
English

@BobHarig @yourstatmanager Hard to argue with people who refuse to look at all the information and just focus on what supports their view, no matter how lacking in the broad picture. But @BobHarig I admire you for trying.
English

@yourstatmanager Still crying about a shot that saved lives. Right on brand
English

@lindayaX @travelingflying Huh? I've seen stories on MN on several of those networks. Maybe you need to check out something other than X. It's not real thanks to you and Elon.
English

@mc_chase @MadBeachMafia @luxcompute @KatieMiller So not true. There are bad lawyers, businessmen, doctors, cops and on and on. In general, NFPs are hard working organizations doing good in the world. Using a few bad ones to make them all look bad is a major disservice to people who are trying to make the world better.
English

@ricksinger7070 @MadBeachMafia @luxcompute @KatieMiller Non profits are very lucrative scams. At least that’s how they can be run.
English

The CEO of Feeding America’s salary for this year was $1,113,502.
Pop Base@PopBase
Taylor Swift has made a $1 MILLION donation to Feeding America, the charity reveals.
English

@jobro1969 @luxcompute @KatieMiller No. Smart donors know how much the CEO makes and decides if the job they do is worth it. That's what's important....does the organization deliver results. Would you rather pay a lot less and get worse results? Often that's your choice.
English

@luxcompute @KatieMiller This is why I don’t give to charity anymore - what’s the justification for paying this CEO that much money? I betcha your average donor doesn’t know this figure, & that they’d be mortified to know that their donation has gone not to the needy but to this giant salary.
English

@JosiahInsights @luxcompute @KatieMiller Shouldn't you judge the charity on how effective it is rather than how much the CEO gets paid? If a CEO is impactful in changing lives for the better, who cares how much they get paid?
English

@luxcompute @KatieMiller So there aren’t any willing and qualified candidates who can do the job for a reasonable salary??? I hardly doubt that. If this NP is paying the CEO over a million a year, then I seriously question where all this money is going.
English

I hear what you’re saying. But I know the nonprofit industry reasonably well, and these gigs are frequently political rewards to unqualified people. Kind of like letting your wife run her shop on Main Street at a loss.
A truly accomplished executive would never be seen accepting that kind of pay as head of a non profit.
