Under author, I wondered about that, I thought I was supposed to put my user ID,but I guess they wanted the actual cnbc writer...good call

“PHIL MICKELSON UNDER SERIOUS INVESTIGATION BY FBI”

Does the FBI do non serious investigations?

Allegation: Primary gives info to a secondary who then passes it on to a third party. If he did not tell the third party how he got it, howe can it be insider info?

Serious investigation?

Seriously? Are we sure it isn’t really a non-serious investigation?

Phil on Trump

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/golf/article-3153633/Phil-Mickelson-laments-Donald-Trump-immigration-comments.html

Phil Mickelson has expressed his disappointment at the comments on immigration made by Donald Trump and the ‘awkward situation’ they have created for professional golf.

I think we were all disappointed to hear his comments,’ Mickelson said ahead of the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open at Gullane.

those are just 2 snips

The PGA is overwhelmingly republican. Most people want to keep the money they make and golfers, especially world class golfers, make a lot of money. Here’s a list of well known golfers, then a list of athletes, who are probably republican.

Likely written by his PR people. Phil has endorsements that total north of $50 million annually. Many of these companies likely rely on Hispanic consumers. His golf game is clearly past its peak, and endorsements are his long term lifeline.

Congress made the steroid bit in MLB as a concern for national security, and spent a huge amount on hearings and bravado. Maybe golfers are the next target. Of course, there are no other pressing matters in the country. /s

One of the reasons they live in Texas and Florida is the no state income tax. Say what you want about Tiger Woods but that was one of the first things he did when he started winning and one of the reasons he rarely plays in the tournaments in California unless it is a major.

Of course all of the states with income tax devised the scheme that pro sports and their athletes must pay out of state income taxes on the moneys they earn when they play games in those states.

“Look how fast the Feds move on this as opposed to moving on Hillary and the Server!”

Those of us who watch golf on TV have known about this investigation for nearly a year now. The rumors about Phil popped up during the Ryder Cup last year.

Meanwhile, there are unconfirmed reports that a humorous investigation of several other golfers is also underway.

agreed goes without saying, my point was just that Phil is not necessarily any more conservative than Tiger, both are A political to an extent.
