  1. If it's ok for the NBA to do business with China then it's ok for the PGA Tour to do business with the Saudis.

  2. Saudis getting ready to back BRICS gold-based currency- thus ending the singuarity of US Petro-Dollars.. this will seem very pedestrian in comparision… Everyone needs to walk through this not run..

  3. The PGA Tour needs Jay Monahan and Jimmy Dunne to be gone. This deal stinks! It stunk in the beginning, and it still stinks over a month later.

  4. For all the Gomer Pyles of the world, this is one of the times Congress serves a purpose. After the hearings we know far more than before, not from testimony, but from documents released. How would people feel if the Saudis were using the PIF to buy the NFL. 32 teams at $6 billion, and we'll just round up to $200 billion. They can afford it.

  5. I'm not a union guy, but the players need to unionize, like yesterday. They need to be represented in whatever comes of this!

  6. I dont think people realize just how much power Saudi Arabia and their oil ministers have. Abu Dubai is a prime example. They want super skyscrapers in the desert. Problem? Nope its done. They want a national airline? Sounds good. They need more pilots and flight attendants? Offer the biggest bonuses of any airline in the world. They want their own golf league? Just buy the americans. They killed a worldwide known journalist? They have oil and the US needs partners in the middle east so they wont do anything to them. This mentality keeps working for them. Money is a powerful argument.
