Arabs and their spring...training

Game of Gulf: Which we, ourselves, have become accustomed to...as in re-naming things to suit our-selves...but they, way over in what's called the Middle, eastern states...seem to only want to do in over-sized quantities...as in HUGE paydays for not only the winner, but second, third...as in LIV Golf - Roman numerals reflecting the number of holes but which should, based on the sponsorship of the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, be $X$X$X! 

Bridging the Gap: As in London Bridge, which congers up all kinds of historical images...including when our own version of "futbol" became a matter of interest, and is now played out, on "the pitch" (which may sound more like the game that opened up in what's called the "far east" as in Japan, and the MLB), as in "going long", to "throw out the first pitch"...as in fusion food...fight!  

Flagging interest: Rates of, that is. Only rumor that it's partly what prompted the NFL to be lured into going to a place with firmer footing😕for at least one regular season game...as in the NFL to UAE (we're talking "True Grit" here)...sounds like more like "Do Buy" if you ask me...along with one of the most quoted quotes from the quotable Jerry Maguire and the voice of Tom Cruise, who knows a lot about showing up, all over the place...

"Show me, the money!" (AKA "CHA CHING...bring the bling!") Call me a cynic, just don't call me when the game's starting, as I've lost interest...

Speaking of getting to the green...

"Welcome to Augusta!" where all...some, almost 300 men and since 2012, a few select women, are allowed to wear the green, on the club grounds (wouldn't want the field to get too crowded would we?)...where even if you are a winner! while being allowed to play the course you still lack a few privileges of those dues payers...where for four days per year you can at least tune in for the "Masters" and get the exclusive treatment ...

LIV it, love it…leave it.

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
