This story seems bs 1bil to play soccer for season? It's probably money laundering. Is there even another soccer player making over $80 mil a season? Even the WWE was only getting paid $60 mil a show to look bad for taking SA $$$

They’re paying Benzena like 100 million a year, Ronaldo 110 million and they offered Messi I think 500 million a season for 3 years.

I would just leave it there. They are now, though. That's our whole culture. It's going to change, tho, like I sed. It can't go on like this forever. People are gonna wake up. I still don't think the Saudis have the structure to do bball, but they could do an all star game as said, they could put up some money for like 1 on 1, all star, and give a bunch to the winner so dudes actually tried. That would be something worth watching, and they could probably even make a lot of the money back. It would be a good investment, but yeah... NBA isn't 'immune,' but it's gonna take a long time for Saudi to get the structure that the NBA has. There's a reason NBA is what it is. It's in decline, and they might need to change how they are doing things so that at some point dudes don't dip in their stuff, but if they do, it will be well deserved cuz they would be sleeping and the players would choose money over comp (which they already do, which we somehow need to stop praising.)
It's not even about the blood money, per se, because it's all gross out there. It's just about someone coming in and taking our stuff. It's like China bullying us in various ways. Not a good look. We need to make it stop. It's depressing lol.
Edit: dudes should take all the saudi money and go play for them all while taking the money and investing it in their military. hue hue hue. We def could use some of their change, but them just taking it from us is signaling to our population that our country is in decline. Which it is, but they don't need to rub it in our faces.

Yeah the US has been used to being able to buy everything, but now other countries are richer.

That's why we gotta stop playing ourselves and remember the true currency is military power and as we lose more and more of that, we are gonna just keep gettin shit on. "Sad."

If they could come up with an interesting new format for basketball that would be cool. First to 100 points wins games. Real skill challenge tournaments like a 3 point shoot out for millions. One on one games for millions. They could introduce the 4 point shot. Anything but another generic standard basketball league.

Saudi has been trying very hard to diversify its portfolio since oil business may not be as good as before anymore. That's oil money they want to invest in entertainment business.

The true currency is culture and people don't want Hollywood anymore.
The last Hollywood movie I watched was Dune 2 and before that Blade Runner 2.

Our culture erodes and it has value but military power is first to me, even tho things like religion survived much persecution and book burning. I’m sure things, great works etc, were lost. You gotta be able to defend your stuff. They take your women and your culture right after they tap u out.
Hollywood was probably doomed from the start, a place where culture is made is a faulty set up. Def good movies but imagine how many women and ideas/great works were swallowed or corrupted by that monster.

Inflation is a problem right now and what better way to erode confidence is to make it seem $$ seem worthless. NFTs and Paying a soccer player +800% what he's worth.
SA were buying western credibility with WWE and the PGA but even they can't lose $700 million on an athlete.
