Are you kidding me? This was a mockery today. No one who has been working tirelessly to change things in the game, and that have been making progress, were representated.. Their efforts were obfuscated by lies, misrepresentations and innuendo. I'm surprised that someone that makes their living in the game would perpetuate the crap that we just listened to for 4 hours... It's irresponsible to be unaware of what is actually being attempted and accomplished.

Sorry to be harsh about it but accepting the bullsh+t from the likes of Jess Jackson is outrageous.

I'm completely aware of the measurements being taken, of the new committees and groups formed. My golf partner is one a few of those committees. I know.

And no, I don't think today's hearings were the end-all, be-all, nor the answer. But its funny how someone outside our industry finally calls us out, and suddenly, we have this giant defensive stance. It's like an ostrich sticking its head in the sand.
