MLF is about it.
BASS is just following the typical business model of trying to eliminate the competition.
I enjoyed watching them both head to head too. Not sure what else is coming down the pipe. Thinking BASS is going to try to get more of the bigger names from FLW and they be only pro civility out there. I hope not.
Sure seems like that's the case. I know it's just business but I would be willing to bet that 90+% of their fan base wouldn't like that decision. Greed always gets you.
What does the statement "greed always gets you" have to do with anything? Everyone realizes that BASS, FLW and MLF are "for profit" businesses correct? They're not charities.
Secondly, BASS has a vested interest in assisting Toyota as their title partner. No one wants to see this event completely go away as it makes a direct economic impact here in Texas that anglers benefit from. Not to mention it's a great format and good time.
I'm thrilled they were able to keep it alive and appreciate the contribution by Toyota for the last decade. It's in good hands with BASS.
