  1. New name for combined tour. PBGA, Professional Bonesaw Golf Association, Jay Monahan, commish.

  2. After watching this I was reminded of why I stopped watching these two senile old men. They are so incredibly disconnected with the reality of situations. Wilbon saying that stop crying because you all got paid! Huge difference between a couple million dollars and HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars. People that have money are so disconnected with the reality of people that don’t.

  3. Jay Monahan got what he wanted — and he used plenty of people over the past two years to receive a lifetime job.

  4. Money vs. "Do the Right Thing!" is like Devil vs. Not, The Devil … Saudi gov't help fund Plane hitting Pentagon (Killing my colleagues), Plane demolishing World Trade Center (Killing one of my Family Members), Plane killing brave Americans who stood up to Terrorist Preventing them from hitting the White House. $600B Dollar War Chest means American Soccer, American/World Golf and other Sports will make the same Evil deals.

  5. Jay Monahan and the PGA had no clue what they could be up to on the lawsuit … unfortunately in the end the court wanted the PGA (Jay Monahan) to open their books but Jay M. refused …. that decision was a catastrophic error a blunder of EPIC proportion …. as such the PGA and JM was Checkmate. Jay lied to the PGA players …. he told them "don't take the $ dont go to LIV …. in the end he did the exact opposite … Jay took the deal (only who knows how much $ he is going to get from this deal ) and sold the PGA….. talk about Hypocrisy that is Jay Monahan….

    Choker Rory McIlroy nowhere to be found … he and Cry baby Billy Horcshel are at Hooters with Greg begging to get a deal …. unfortunately there is lol nothing left for them except a job at the cleaners. Good for them what goes around comes around.

  6. Pretty disappointing neither one of y’all spoke about the involvement the Saudi government had with 9/11 and how the PGA just spat in the faces of thousands of victims.

  7. Question: TLDR – PGA/LIV Tour Merger who is merging with who? Usually one entity merges with another one.

  8. So if they offered Tiger 800 million how much did the commissioner and PGA staff get 😮

  9. Cowards, nothing but cowards, all this talk about patriotism and waving the flag, hypocrites, the sports world is showing it's true colors – $$$ – Blood money, everyone knows Saudi Arabia was behind September 11th!!! I don't bother to watch gold and don't watch Korn-hole or Wilbonnet any longer!

  10. I don't know what the big deal is. Those who in the know, know, that 9/11 was fully orchestrated by the federal government. There's not one thing that ties the attacks to Saudi Arabia. You can try, but I'll tell you otherwise. Nothing about the so called "evidence" from that day makes any sense.

  11. Ain’t no way they knew the pga was gonna merge with liv. Cmon hindsight is 20-20

  12. They can buy the entire NFL, NBA and MLB combined and have change left. People really dont seem to understand just how DEEP their pockets are.

    NFL Total Value – $212 Billion
    NBA Total Value – $167 Billion
    MLB Total Value – $164 Billion

    Saudi Family Estimated Net Worth – $847 Billion

  13. The PGA tour, brought to you by Mohammad. I can see the protestors gathering at the 1st tee now

  14. saudis just coopted a western sport institution and injected an obscene immoral complacency, and at the same time gave us a mirror for how pathetic and immoral we are as a culture. boycott it if yu have a pulse of decency or a drop of pride to fight for our civilization

  15. Ummm… This is your biggest takeaways?!?!?! How about the fact that Saudis are pure evil? How about the fact that they chopped a U.S. Journalist into pieces? How about the fact that they behead people on the streets? How about the fact that they are anti-female? How about the fact that the killed 3,000 Americans on 9/11?!?!?!?!

  16. AFL and ABA weren’t backed by blood money and a regime that sponsors terrorism and killing journalists or dissenters and oppresses women Wilbon you complete idiot!! Money isn’t everything some things are about principles. Used to like this guy, what a jackass.

  17. Boycott the PGA. Time for Tiger & the big money players to start their own league. REMEMBER 911.

  18. How much money did Wilbon get paid? A house in Utah, clothes, private school tuitions, cars….follow the money. And ESPN fired The Truth.

  19. Wilbon needs to stop making the comparison to past merges of AFL-NFL and ABA-NBA. This is nothing like that. Those mergers were between US based/owner leagues. LIV is a front for the Saudi sovereign wealth fund. This "merger" represents a take over of a major US sport association by a foreign government. Not to mention the fairly dubious policies and practices of that nation.

    Ultimately, I think this sell out by the PGA will end up to be a negative for them and the players. Money can not be the answer to every issue.

  20. Wilbon, you'd sell your mother for a big check. You're projecting. You don't even MENTION the 9/11 families, or the murder of an American journalist.
    You're as pathetic as the Bears.

  21. Hey we all like loads of money but is there ever a point where you have enough and you can make decisions based on whether it's morally sound or not. Now this sport is owned by the Saudis. Slippery bedfellows.

  22. Disgusting, these maniacs killed 3000 Americans on on our on soil , and now we're playing golf with them? Change the name to BIGPOS and let it reflect who they all really are 💩

  23. Golf is brought to you by The blood and death of the victims of 9-11- and Money, if you want your entire life to be about hypocrisy get yourself some money and make it more important than you're soul💰 Well be back with more of the Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi Golf Classic, right after these messages from Fox News 🫡
