Ever since ESPN purchased BASS it has went been all about dollars and "Do as we say".

When BASS was owned by the membership we had a say on how things went.

Who is to say ESPN won't mandate something next year like "You have to have a Triton Boat" to fish a tournament or pay a higher fee. Something silly like that.

Not saying FLW is perfect, by any means. But ESPN "HAS" tried to stick it to the little guy already, do we want to sign up for more???
