None of them, IMO, are bigger names than Kraft, at this point...not even Tiger. Been there, done that, with him already.

I don't know. The press would chomp at the bit to rake Tiger through the coals again and possibly Jack Nicklaus? I guess bigger would depend on your circle in terms of favorite sport no?

I wonder if what someone posted above though is correct. The media does what they always do and rush to the story without all the facts. Maybe the initial report was there was going to be big name and that name ended up being Kraft?!!?!?

I simply don't trust the media these days to get anything completely accurate.

I think I was clear. I never said that. Please go back and read the posts I made. Never made an absolute statement.

I think it's intellectually dishonest to go rent a hooker and pretend like you have no idea that the act of solicitation isn't likely to support the continued victimization of human trafficking victims. What you're inferring is not even close to what I said.


I edited a few things, and you are clear.

Admit we were having message board miscommunication, and are more or less on the same page.

"Intellectually dishonest" is something I would really have no say in but respect the argument, just do not really have anything to say about that.

Are these guys linked to this story or do they just happen to be residents there?

Residents? Southpaw put the list up there. Not sure where it's sourced. I don't follow where golfers live.

Some anonymous sources are saying that Robert Kraft is not the biggest name on the suspect list.

Don't really follow golf at all. I wouldn't know the epicenter from the Put Put Golf center of the sport. Let alone where anybody lives.

Although I do find Top Golf fun.

You are twisting the point. Just because they are often that way, doesn't mean they all are. Would you be upset if he visited the bunny ranch in Nevada?

It's different if it's voluntary. The police claim these girls were under coercion.

Agreed. Prostitution isn't the issue here, more along the lines of kidnapping and abuse.

Exactly. I have no problem with prostitution being legal. IMO, safer for everyone involved.

But, this isn't the issue here. Kraft, by giving the spa his business, was supporting a criminal organization. It's pretty clear cut to me that there is no reason to feel sorry for him. Besides, everyone knows this sort of thing is a risk. He took the risk, got caught, oh BOO HOO! Not.

Strange it has not leaked by now if that is the case. None of this is going to amount to anything ultimately IMO. These are misdemeanor charges from what I understand. Kraft will pay his fine, take some class and be off to his next "spa" visit somewhere else.

I agree.

He’s a billionaire. He could easily afford to take a trip to Nevada and/or any other country where it is legal.

The place he went to looks suspicious as hell. There had to have been rumors of the kind of girls that worked there.

Because this investigation has been going on for so long, it wouldn't surprise me to see Trump on the list. But I doubt it that it has been since he's been POTUS though. The secret service would certainly have had a say in that, I think.

It’s a short trip to their favorite place in Colombia. :)

I don't think anyone is going to fly across the country for a ******* just because they are rich.

I think there's still big names in the Heidi Fleiss and Molly Bloom cases that haven't leaked, at least according to people who were close.

No idea who the bigger name(s) is but it wouldn't surprise me at all if they don't get outed, big names have deep pockets and can sometimes get out of this.
