Athletes should always take the 'insane amount of money' when offered because sports leagues have zero loyalty to players
If somebody is offering you an insane amount of money to play a sport, you should probably take that money. Because guess what? When it comes down to it, the league that you have any sort of loyalty to will not have any loyalty to you whatsoever if they can make a 10th of a percent more in net profit 10 years from now. Anytime somebody can pay you 10 times your total income to play a sport for fewer days a year... absolutely, a hundred percent, take that money.

Jay Monahan, the biggest scumbag in the world, the biggest scumbag in the world. He brought in 9/11 families to act as a human shield for what he was doing behind the scenes, which was negotiating with the LIV tour to try to make the PGA tour more money in the long run. While again telling the golfers on the PGA tour, don't do business with these people. They are evil. So yes, he's the biggest piece of shit in the world.
LIV Golf comes out of the merger looking like the Michael Scott Paper Company
The LIV tour, by the way, they come out of this smelling like roses. They're the Michael Scott Paper Company comparably to the PGA tour. They started their own tour. Everybody laughed at 'em. Their ratings were bad. But at some point along the way, the PGA tour needed the LIV tour just as much as the LIV guys needed the PGA tour.
In 10 years, PGA players will realize the LIV merger was the moment they started making a lot more money
It's gotta suck to be a PGA tour player today because they were blindsided. [But] in like 10 years they'll probably look back and be like, yeah, we did make a lot more money. They already are making more money because of the PGA having to compete with LIV. They're probably all gonna make a shitload more money now.
