Do you think Jonny Morris will ever pick his side and cut off BASS $$

Dave

9:19

Bass had 15, 10 and 7 before 5?

Stu in AL

9:19

Mark, let the grasshopper roll

ChadInCanada

Haters gonna hate, anglers gonna fish...

TOS Matt

9:19

Panger with the Star bellie Sneetch ref

Jim - Indiana

9:18

G said the 5 fish format is engraved in our DNA

Robert

9:18

For a group (MLF) that said over and over that they are making history and "growing the sport", they have done nothing but shit on grassroots anglers from the start of this acquisition.

ChadInCanada

9:18

Legally is their an obligation? No. Is it a shitty thing to do to a potential rising star in the sport and he likely won't forget it? TOTALLY!

Dave

9:18

But C'mon Matt. All this rumor and drama had started about the MLF buying FLW. Don't get me wrong, I feel bad for this guy, but he shouldn't have been that naive and put all his eggs in that basket. I do hope they or someone helps him out.

SmallmouthCrush

9:17

Why would he want to continue to fish FLW after what they have done to him....?

Mike_Cus from NY

9:17

TBF - should cover the whole nut. It's their program they use to get members.

Dave

9:17

Strike King makes alot of their stuff in MX...Wish we could keep some manufacturing in the US but the truth is alot of the folks in the US are willing to do that type of work for the true wages that they should get paid and think these jobs should pay 25 or 30 bucks an hour!

Mike_Cus from NY

9:17

Disagree... when you sign up to join TBF, they push the living the dream program. They don't say they are only paying 50% of the entry fees.

Dave

9:17

C'mon this was a business deal and the timing screwed some of those involved. Impossible to make and keep everyone happy. Don't get me wrong If this would have happened to me I would be pissed too. But to bash an organization for buying a unprofitable company and trying to help our sport.

Derek-NC

9:17

Lol yeah way to go MLF/FLW on "Growing the sport"

David - WI

9:17

Hey, G said it yesterday. MLF is about the money instead of being personable. With the amount of $ they spending left and right, they need every cent they can get. You know they're not going to honor that Living the Dream package

BRIAN IN CA

9:17

now we know why brandon left. he see's whats really going on with mlf. good ol boys club.

Philmanchu

9:17

If BASS doesn't see an opportunity here and get him in the Classic.

Jim - Indiana

9:16

They likely figured that most fans never knew about this, and it would go away ... Matt is keeping it alive!

Karl from Ohio

9:16

Is it getting clearer why the guys left BPT

Jim - Indiana

9:16

So what is the total dollar amount?

Craig,Oneida Lake

9:16

So what,BASS will come out on top if they do something for this guy !

Karl from Ohio

9:16

He lost 10 grand just from the cup

Derrick from Lake Fork

9:16

The difference with the kid that qualified is he was told it was going to be covered. The other guys have just qualified.

Jim - Indiana

9:15

The guy that ran Cabelas in the ground could afford it!

Dave

9:06

I am definitely interested to see if MLF follows through on the conservation efforts they mentioned that they will be starting.

sam from ct

9:06

i bet they pay him after this maybe?

Kevin--WV

9:06

My understanding of an "asset buyout" is that to be able to purchase the assets of a company, the selling company must be able to show they have sufficient assets to cover liabilities. The Cup payouts and these other things would be a liability it seems to me.

Stu in AL

9:04

Dave- Fact!

TOS Matt

9:04

At our annual meeting last month the TN TBF director told our members the living the dream would continue according to the secretary's notes.

Dave

9:04

But this is not MLFs fault they bailed out FLW because they (FLW) was going broke and in serious debt.

Stu in AL

9:03

Wouldn’t be surprised if BPT changes minimum weight at an event on the fly. They’ve got that capability for certain
