Saudi money is changing the landscape for many sports. First soccer, then golf, now tennis.

When you know and understand the consequences your actions will change

And we're not even going into the whole sports washing objective Saudis are really up to.

Sports washing is a western term to shyt on oppressive states while ignoring that major companies do the same thing.

The Miami Heat's arena was called FTX Arena, which was trying to sports wash.

you gotta be a old ass dumb ass boomer in denial
Benz the best and most clinical striker in the world

Fool said china

You must only be playing FIFA and not actually watching him play. He's washed. Vini Jr. is the star of that team now. As for the most clinical, obviously Mbappe and Haaland are far superior right now.

While I do think what the Saudis do with the LIV golf and Newcastle is sports washing, he's right that FTX (and Crypto companies in general) are basically doing the same thing.

He's washed but still scored more than mbappe

Mbappe is more clinical than benzema

And you talking fifa

La liga>>>> that farmer league of croissant boys

Boy took 30 more shots for 1 less goal than benz this season

And they force feed mbappe like he a got an eating condition at psg

I for one is happy there is another player in sports to provide people with alternatives. Keeps everyone competitive.

What's stopping the Saudis from creating another basketball league in America and paying everyone 100 million a year?
They clearly have the money to burn

I used FTX as an example, but the gambling by companies, auto industry, financial sector, athletic compnies, etc. Unless it’s some small mom and pop place, they all do it. Major corporate sponsorship is sports washing.

Are we really comparing what FTX does to the atrocities committed by the Saudis?

Are you really that obtuse and dense to not realize that my point is atrocities are still atrocities? FTX stole billions from people.

Nothing I am saying is absolving the Saudis, but instead asking you to do something that you may not be capable of which is think critically.

They can do whatever they want, but players are not going to Saudi Arabia to play professional hoops. You brehs are not close to understanding why the Saudis are doing this and what the end goal is---they want hte 2030 World Cup and will use former stars to help push it. It's what Qatar did for the 2022 World Cup bid.

why would they start liv golf if not to do something like this

They don't operate that way. And won't be able to compete with already established teams in the same market place.

 

[hood b. goode]

Saudis dont really care about basketball like that.

Messi and ronaldo have been worshipped by arabs for years, which is why they are about to get messi now and complete the cypher

LIV golf was a smart play. They saw a market inefficiency and pounced on it.
