You repeatedly say Mark has an issue with "the pros." Mark's issue is not with "the pros" it is with a few specific pro players and with good reason in those select cases.

That was my first thought, as well.
Seems like Mark is still providing quite a bit of money to pro players this year. Its just not available to all of them currently. Still, several pro players will be better off because of Mark this year. Doesn't seem like he is anti-pro to me...
