Remember Charlie Brown and Lucy and the football?

"...before I’m going to put Dubai on our 2010 calendar 100 percent there are additional guarantees, assurances and measures we are going to require to just make 100 percent sure what happened last week couldn’t possibly happen again."

Wasn't that also supposed to happen last year? Or did they think that Doha had solved the problem...

I'm too exhausted to comment on Larry Scott or the players inability to support a fellow player.

The problem for me the horse bolted from the stable along time ago and I feel any gesture or action is a sham.

Thank you again Diane for your blogging.

You're welcome, dearg. I feel pretty much as you do--too little, too late. The organization was supposedly blind-sided, but really--how naive are they? I feel bad for Shahar.

Anon, that brings up the subject you introduced. Yes, it's possible the tour thought that admission to Doha was a good sign; I don't know.
