So Matt is admitting at this point that he can't hang with the big boys yet he is trying to qualify to play with the big boys? really?

Andy-IN

This will give some of the FLW anglers an awesome experience to fish with some legends.

PA Crankbait

Our education system has created this entitlement situation.

Ryan Kentucky

9:31

Is Matt a liberal? This isnt a handout. You fish against the fish not your competitor . We have a few guys in our usabassin group that are sponsored and fish semi professional against us weekend warriors and to he honest I cant think of a single time they have won.

Rules dont matter and contracts dont matter. MLF has put the BPT guys in a pr night mare.

Matt from MN

9:30

This is getting uncomfortable.... can we get a guest?? LOLOL

Will IN

9:30

Mark I'm just being funny. I Really love this show but you do get going sometimes

Andy-IN

9:29

I agree with you Mark. I think it gives some of the anglers on the FLW to test themselves.

Mark-Minnesota

9:29

I can see both sides. There is a big opportunity for the FLW guys to do well. There will be more interest in these events now too. It does kind of dampen it as a feeder system against a similar level of angler to develop your skills and sponsorship portfolios though.

TOM from NY

9:29

I thought the idea of BPT was to separate the TRUE PROFESSIONALS from the everyday guy trying to make it ?

Rus

9:29

Matt/ Mark- does the NBA or any other PRO sports leauge make their pros PAY-TO-PLAY college ball now? lol

Maynard

9:29

Are the BPT pro's going to pay their own entries or will a sponsor pick it up ?

Andy-IN

9:28

They will get more coverage with the BPT guys there. It could spotlight a new angler that wouldn't have got the coverage in another time

TOM from NY

9:28

JAY NYCE ! BOOM DONE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD HYPOCRITES !

Will IN

9:28

Up next Mark insulting Combs cranking ability

Craig T

9:28

Matt,Mark is delusional in his argument!

TOS Matt

9:27

Bottom line is it sucks. It is what it is though.

Jeff - TN

9:27

Love BTL because honesty, truth and facts ALWAYS PREVAIL!

Jay Nyce

9:23

I think the reason I don’t like the BPT anglers being allowed to fish the Pro Circuit is because MLF has touted this “we’re better than everyone else! Look at how we care about all fish By immediately releasing them and all anglers by no entry fees!” Then they go “hey we love 5-fish tournaments and entry fees when our backs are against the wall.” I know it’s different times. I fully understand, but due to their previous marketing strategy, I feel they lack integrity.

Brian in MN

9:22

Yeah m

Will IN

9:22

Mark I'm starting to be worried about your blood pressure.

Rus

9:22

Matt/ Mark- I think "entitlement" was a MAJOR factor with the formation of the BPT to begin with!

Dave

9:22

Crazy, Matt is basically saying he doesn't want to compete with pro's at his current level, but yet he wants to qualify to fish against them? Really?

Brian in MN

9:22

FLW changing the rules again, kind of like the Costa Championship deal?

Nenad

9:22

Good morning. Its a crazy Monday morning on the instatnt feedback and arm wrestle between Mark and Mat. Loving everyone point of view.

Dave

9:15

The standard is catch em no matter where and what you are fishing.

Roy

9:14

I agree with you Mark. Get off my lawn!

Drew

9:10

Matt. Your describing the NPFL league..... are you signed up??

Rus

9:08

who knows maybe the BPT to FLW will show us that BPT truly aint the best in the world when the Gray Bucks show up and whoop em.

Blake-GA

9:08

I like Mark's point... if you catch em you don't have to worry about the BPT guys, imagine what that would show potential sponsors.

Dave

9:08

Well said Mark!

Mark-Minnesota

9:03

Unless the FLW guys do well and/or win some events to show that they belong with them. Matt could have been fishing them if he chose to go to FLW, right?

Andy

9:01

Matt..... Your beef with MLF/FLW from what happened at Costa championship is getting old.....

Dave

9:01

Point(s) taken Tom...We shall see...

Dave w

9:00

I believe the pro circuit changed their venues to appeal to the MLF guys to hopefully get more to fish the events

Rus

9:00

man the FLW stops will be super pressured now

TOS Matt

9:00

Good point. Putting some of the world's best in the way of some other up and coming guys trying to make it.

TOM from NY

8:59

DAVE- Mark my words you heard it here 1st. There will be a Huge change Sponsors already want out. BPT/MLF/FLW are in for huge awakining even with out the PANDEMIC non sense

Dave

8:59

Another rant from Matt cuz he got shafted outta the Costa Championship???

Mark-Minnesota

8:59

Can all of the MLF anglers fish or will the only take a certain amount? That would put it at over 200 boats right? They will be fun to watch though. Expanded coverage to all 4 days live.
