Ah yes, capitalism. Smells like money.
Never imagined a merger so quickly. As the saying goes, "united we stand, divided we fall". More money to be made by just burying the hatchet and getting along.
And that’s what the elite P5 teams will do once the ACC works out the GOR issue and old tv contacts are expendable. Follow the money. Greed will be the common bond.
If enough money is out there, I can envision the Vandys of the world getting cut out for FB. Either at the inception or down the road.
At least the SBC seems secure for the next 5 to 10 years.
That and neither did PIF want a financial exam in court. Plus PIF could have drained PGA TOUR dry, kept signing players and won in the end.
This way the Tour gets paid and their members will all get paid, not as much as the LIV guys got, but the LIV guys took the chance and won.
Realignment is not done, and look for more movement, at least the announcements, over the next 12 months.
There was no way the LIV tour could have driven the PGA out of business. The LIV tour was DOA. The issue is the PGA players who were threatened by the tour to be permanently barred from tour events if they signed a deal with the LIV tour. Those players have a hell of a case now if they decide to sue the tour themselves. If there was ever a case of anti trust, this is it.
