"Who's idea was it to put the cone on your head for the parade? Was that all you?" "Zach Eisenberg [Director, Executive Operations]—I think is his name—he takes care of us a lot at Amerant Bank Arena. I don't know his exact role with the team but he's just kind-of always around, and helps us out. He's friends with Brooks [Koepka.] I think he helps Brooks when he comes to the games. Anyways he found a pylon or I think I might have told him—I was pretty drunk at the time but I think I told him to go get a py—'if you could find a pylon, find one!' 'Cuz they sprung that speech on me, kind-of, last second, you know, five minutes before I was supposed to go up there. I'm like, 'What the fuck am I gonna say?' So I had him go grab the pylon and I grabbed it on the side of the stage right before I was gonna do my speech. And luckily all the clips are of that, you know, me telling him to go fuck himself... 'cuz the rest of my speech was terrible. There's really nothing to it! And I'm so happy that, you know, all the clips are only of that so!" "Yeah, we didn't know you said anything else! I thought that was the entire speech!" "That's all that matters!" "Exactly, exactly! I got away with it there!"

The Cam & Strick Podcast | 7.30.24 (x)

i love finding out they basically told ekky he was gonna have to do a whole speech 5 minutes before he was up while hes been drenched from rainwater and alcohol for like the past 6 hours absolutely pissed out of his mind like yeah no wonder his speech basically culminated to THANK YOU SOUTH FLORIDA AND ALSO GIVE IT UP FOR MY D PARTNER WOOOOO yeah that tracks

"But what golf tournament* were you at shortly after that? Somebody was dressed like a cone? Was that Lomberg who was dressed in like a costume? A cone costume?" "He came—Brooks came up to you—" "No, that was his buddy, that was his buddy. He was actually a Sunrise police officer. I actually saw him last night at the Zach Bryan concert! But yeah, no, that's one of his buddies. No, he was completely put to bed the day after. Right? Like he texted me—I personally didn't care, like, how many people at a hockey game are calling me a cone and telling Barkov he's got no hands like it's—you know, that's hockey. That's sports, right? So I didn't give a shit but—yeah, no, it was all in good fun. And then I got a way to get him back! It's perfect!" "But when you did see the first video of him in the box—and I remember watching that, I'm like, 'this motherfucker is rolling esctasy!' His eyes were fuckin' gigantic, he's like, 'Aaargghh.' Like, 'I can't take him, he's calling me a cone! I can't—' But that is kind-of odd that a professional athlete is gonna call you a cone and he's like a fan of yours...it's just—it was really bizarre!" "Goofy!" "Yeah..." "And his eyes were black which, you know..." "What does that mean?" "I just know what that means... and he was fucked up, you know..." "Yeah, yeah! He was definitely fucked up and he agreed that he was fucked up. And he apologised so I didn't care, obviously. And then when I was at that golf event I should've thrown a beer at his backswing or something—at the LIV event when he was actually competing? I should've fucked with him but I couldn't do it... I couldn't—I couldn't find the courage to throw something at him..." "So did he reach out to you like that night? And say, 'Hey, dude... I was just joking, you know...'" "'I took some pills and...'"

*2023 LIV Golf Team Championship (Miami) held from Oct. 20-22 in Doral

[and i suppose more context here lombo and koepka are friends and he even showed up to his cupday when he went golfing in parkland and not to mention that lombo facilitated koepka apologising to ekky so its why the whole cone costume came to be really]

theres a lot more context about this incident and the ensuing storm after it so for archival sakes here are articles about it (x)(x)(x)(x)(x) because its quite a saga but its water under the bridge and there's only so much tabloid-esque coverage thats been reignited after the ekky speech i can take about an athlete who's dumb enough to insult another guy while hes drunk off as his ass in a fucking public setting

but anyways i think its really funny that i said to myself wow thats an oddly petty thing to admit to you know the whole wanting to throw a beer at his backswing ekky... for such a good vibes sweet man who like the only thing youve particularly said about the cone novella is "we'll never be buddies" to which you quickly retracted and then went "holding ill will against somebody and pulling negativity in your body is never a good thing"

and then i remembered who he attended the liv event with and it all made sense

behind every aqua whos being a little mean there is a much worse much more evil looming presence who is encouraging them down this dark path (a gem but especially a june gem)

truly a tale as old as time

Donald <b>Trump</b> greets Anthony Kim, pro golfers at LIV Golf Miami final round - The Palm Beach Post

New Post has been published on https://www.google.com/url?rct=j&sa=t&url=https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/sports/2024/04/07/donald-trump-attends-final-round-of-liv-golf-miami/73236131007/&ct=ga&cd=CAIyGjUzM2UwMTY5ZmFhZTIwMGQ6Y29tOmVuOlVT&usg=AOvVaw1BJvDciEHHa-9FkCFPIDi0

Donald Trump greets Anthony Kim, pro golfers at LIV Golf Miami final round - The Palm Beach Post

Former U.S. president Donald Trump was at Trump National Doral Miami on Sunday as the final round of LIV Golf Miami started.

[tsportsday]

This is where the PGA Tour is right now: A popular player's decision not to leave for LIV Golf is unexpectedly welcome news.LIV Golf and its advocates, supporters, fans and fanboys have turned "Just wait until you see who's coming to LIV next!" into ongoing performance art. This includes Phil Mickelson, who spent much of last month's LIV team championship in Miami hinting that he was "excited about who's coming next year." We've heard these kinds of big promises from LIV before, and all too often they turned out to be ... well, no offense to the players that joined, but they weren't Jon Rahm.That is, until Jon Rahm joined LIV.Whether Mickelson knew that Rahm was in the process of making the jump, or just doing some of his usual trolling/needling, doesn't really even matter. LIV bagged a massive score in Rahm, and that means it's now impossible to discount anything that LIV and its allies say as mere hype.Tony Finau is staying with the PGA Tour. (Douglas P. DeFelice/Getty Images)So when Tony Finau released his year-end thank-you message on Instagram with a not-so-subtle reference to his 2024 status, there had to be at least some sighs of relief at PGA Tour HQ. "I’m excited for 2024 and looking forward to playing my 10th season on the PGA Tour!" he wrote, ending his message with #imnotleaving — apparently putting to rest any rumors that he would be leaving for LIV.Those departure rumors, which also include at least one more top-25 player, basically had Finau already named as a member of Rahm's new LIV team. If that had happened — losing one of the more popular young players in the game — the cracks in the Tour's foundation would have grown even wider.Finau has six PGA Tour wins, but hasn't had breakthrough success in majors; his best finish to date is third at the 2019 Open. He's best-known for 1. dislocating his ankle and then popping it back into place during a celebration at the par-3 competition before the 2018 Masters and 2. being the most memorable focus of the popular "Masters Update" from Memphis broadcaster Chris Vernon. ("Tony Finau! Where he be now?") Finau has always been one of the game's more affable players, and his segment with his entire family in the Netflix "Full Swing" series helped level up his popularity.The Tour is in the final weeks of a self-imposed negotiating period with the Saudi Public Investment Fund, the financial backer of LIV Golf. The aim of the negotiations is to bring the two sides together to form a new alliance for professional golf going forward. But Rahm's signing is a clear shot across the bow from LIV, either to help kick-start negotiations or threaten the PGA Tour that LIV will continue even if the negotiations fail.Worth noting: More than one player, starting with Rahm himself, has professed allegiance to the PGA Tour only to switch sides at a later date ... perhaps when LIV's offer sweetened by a few more million. So what's true right now might not be true in January ... or even next week. But at the moment, the PGA Tour is holding onto one of its own.

In this installment of Next Tee News on a historic day (“EclipseMania 2024”) we look back at the Augusta National Women’s Amateur, the T-Mobile Match Play presented by MGM, the Valero Texas Open, and a hot take. Plus more!!! Until The Next Tee!! #fightandgrind #seeuonthenexttee

....."Saudi Arabia 

From December 2016 through February of 2017, Saudi government lobbyists reserved blocks of rooms at Trump’s D.C. hotel, “paying for an estimated 500 nights at the luxury hotel in just three months,” and spending at least $270,000 at the property in total. Trump continued to benefit from Saudi business in office. When the Saudi Crown Prince visited New York in 2018, several members of his entourage stayed at the Trump International Hotel in Manhattan. Earnings from the room rentals caused revenue to spike 13 percent, putting the hotel “back in the black” after two years of decline. Weeks before the murder of Washington Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi by agents of the Saudi government, Trump’s business partner in Indonesia signed an agreement for a Saudi-backed company to work on a development with Trump-branded elements. Asked about the deal, “an official with the Saudi-tied firm also said they expect to be involved in the development of a different Trump-branded project in the future.” Trump returned the favor, shielding Saudi leaders from criticism after Khashoggi’s murder and going so far as to allege Khashoggi was tied to terrorist groups. 

Qatar

After several Middle Eastern countries cut diplomatic ties with Qatar for allegedly backing terrorists, Qatar spent hundreds of thousands on lobbying to put itself back into Trump and the U.S.’s good graces. They purchased a $6.5 million condo in Trump World Tower, and started renting space in the “most valuable asset” in Trump’s portfolio, a San Francisco building he co-owns, directing $125,000 per year in rent to the president. After Qatar finished renovations in February 2018, the office sat completely vacant. In April 2018 he welcomed the Emir of Qatar to the Oval Office and praised the country for fighting against extremism. 

United Arab Emirates

Trump raked in money from the United Arab Emirates through his Dubai golf course amid concerns about corruption and human rights abuses in the country. Before taking office, Trump was paid as much as $10 million in royalties from the golf course and other projects in Dubai. On top of that, the U.A.E. spent up to $10 thousand per night for rooms at Trump’s D.C. hotel from late 2017 to mid 2018. Trump acted favorably to the U.A.E. in many ways during this time, from his administration’s “maximum pressure” agenda against U.A.E. adversary Iran to supporting a $23 billion arms deal with Abu Dhabi in 2020. 

Turkey

In 2017 and 2019 groups with ties to the Turkish government held four events at Trump properties and Turkish officials made 15 visits to the Trump Hotel in D.C., where they spent up to $10,000 per night on rooms. Around the same time, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan pressured Trump to shut down an investigation into sanctions violations by a state-owned Turkish bank. DOJ officials attempted to quash the investigation on the orders of Trump, though it ultimately proceeded. 

Kuwait

The Embassy of Kuwait hosted three independence day parties at the D.C. hotel. In turn, Trump bestowed a “top U.S. honor” to Kuwait’s ruling emir.

Trump has been anything but shy about how much he appreciates the business. As Trump bragged about his ties with the Saudis, “They buy apartments from me. They spend $40 million, $50 million… Am I supposed to dislike them? I like them very much.” That’s held true after Trump’s presidency: During a Saudi-backed LIV golf league tournament last year at Trump’s Doral golf club in Miami, Trump said of LIV, “It’s big time and it’s big-time money. It’s unlimited money. They love golf and the Saudis have done a fantastic job.” LIV golf recently announced its $50 million championship would move from Jeddah to Trump’s Doral golf club in Miami.

The $9.6 million that we know Trump made from Middle Eastern countries during his presidency is likely just the tip of the iceberg. CREW tracked conflicts of interest involving multiple countries that are not even present on his tax returns. For example, officials from Iraq, Oman and Yemen made visits to Trump properties while he was president. Because we don’t know the total cost for these visits, we did not include them in the tally.

What we do know is that becoming president was Trump’s best business decision, and his tax returns show how great the office was for his bottom line. As the 2024 election creeps closer, foreign interests including those in the Middle East are already buying access to Trump and pouring money into his pockets."

N'Golo Kante joins Saudi champions.

N’GOLO KANTE HAS joined Saudi Arabian champions Al Ittihad, the club said in a statement, joining up with French compatriot Karim Benzema. “Kante is an Ittihad player now!” the club said on Twitter, while chairman Anmar al-Hailee tweeted: “Welcome to our new tiger Kante,” a reference to the team’s nickname. The 32-year-old midfielder who joined Chelsea in 216 from Leicester becomes the latest in a line of European stars choosing to ply their trade in the desert kingdom, which is making big-money moves across elite sport. A dynamic and industrious midfielder, Kante won the World Cup with France in 2018. His club career also glitters. He won the Champions League and World Club Cup with Chelsea, as well as back-to-back Premier League titles with Leicester City and Chelsea. Kante’s contract with the London club was set to expire this month. He has signed a three-year deal with Al Ittihad, the Jeddah-based team said in a statement, though it gave no details of how much Kante will earn. “Kante’s addition to Al-Ittihad is considered one of the most high-profile and impactful signings in the club’s history,” the statement added. “It is part of the club’s efforts to establish itself as a top choice for world-class players in the Saudi Professional League.” Current Ballon d’Or holder Benzema joined Al-Ittihad earlier this month, after 14 seasons with Real Madrid in which he won five Champions Leagues, four La Liga titles and three Copas del Rey. The kingdom’s league had already signed up five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo, who joined Al-Nassr in January. His fellow Portuguese international Ruben Neves, currently of Wolves, is reportedly set to join Al Hilal. Argentina legend Lionel Messi, widely considered the greatest player of all time, declined to make a similar move despite a lengthy Saudi courtship, and will instead join Inter Miami in the United States. With its oil riches, Saudi Arabia — a conservative monarchy frequently criticised over its human rights record — has swiftly achieved a prominent role in world sports. In football, the presumed goal is hosting the World Cup, which is intended to lift Saudi Arabia’s profile and prestige as it tries to diversify its oil-reliant economy by attracting tourists and investors. In the coming years, Saudi Arabia will organise the men’s Asian Cup football, the Olympic-style Asian Games and even the Asian Winter Games in 2029. The Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), the state’s sovereign wealth vehicle, holds an 80% stake in Newcastle United, who finished fourth in the Premier League last season. In golf, the PIF has also ruffled feathers. It bankrolls LIV Golf, whose clash with the PGA Tour nearly caused a rupture in the sport. A surprise merger between the rival tours earlier this month settled a legal battle, only a year after LIV Golf launched with several stars who had jumped from the PGA for big-money offers from the upstart series.
