My thought is that the MLF is in a tough situation. 2 of the main talking points when MLF was formed were 1) no entry fees and 2) a clear path to the BPT tour, from high school to college to AAA/FLW to BPT. 3 years later, granted the world has been crazy, those two priorities do not seem likely any time soon. Especially when the current roster will vote on the process. Is there any chance the current anglers will vote to be cut from the tour? I think we know that answer. They will vote in their best interest (i dont blame them), not the best interest of the league. Actually when BPT was formed the plan was to have entry fees and much higher payouts. Then the anglers voted for no entry fees

Then the anglers voted for no entry fees Definitely trust you on that. I am more referring to the anglers interviewed after the switch and those two seemed like the most common themes. But you are correct that it wasnt an official MLF bullet point upon formation.

Like I said, it’s all in the deceptive marketing. Some people toss out all kinds of things to deflect criticism towards MLF and it infuriates them when the truth is spoken to them. Look at the highlighted text.

I never said anything about how you advance. But once again you just blabber on. It's easy to just spout off whatever nonsense you want when you hide behind screen names( big o, seminole wind)

But I have to make an exception in this case to suggest that you may want to get the prescription for your reading glasses updated. Please re-read what I posted and focus on the “first 10 words” of the highlighted text in the graphic that was attached and recognize what it refers to. Furthermore, no-entry fees has been the primary talking point from the inception of BPT; how else do you think they attracted all those other lemmings to move from an established and stable circuit? It may have been voted on by those who had acting parts in the reality TV MLF Cups, but the no entry fees was the talking point that was the bait put the hook in the mouth of the suckers who believed in the Marketing!

You are just wrong. The original plan was to have entry fees and along with sponsor money have a much larger payback. It was after all the anglers had already signed up that they voted no entry fee. Which is what boyd1002 and me were talking about. Since they didn't own FLW when they formed BPT. What you posted has no relevance to what the original plan was

... MLF fishing has achieved 850 hours of TV exposure a year over 5 networks and it is now rated as the #1 rated outdoor program... That’s a self proclaimed narrative that no one believes, including the sponsors that pulled out of MLF/BPT after 1 year and felt like they were sold a bill of goods because they realized those numbers weren’t coming even close to adding up. Oh, you also omitted that KSE (majority owner in MLF) also has majority ownership stakes in 4 of the 5 networks they put broadcast hours on. If they were doing so good they wouldn’t have cheated the anglers out of so much purse money in 2020. Can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2021 after the success they had last year. That was a slick move on the skimming of $100k out from under the FLW Pro AOY winner! - There are shysters from around the world that are envious and are now incorporating the phrase “TBD” into their contracts. Who knew such a simple insert into rules and regulations document create such a nice pay. And BOOM! He's back

Speaking of decorum issues, I am asking everyone to tone the rhetoric and personal attacks down. Thank you.
