just like “Process” is ambiguous and undefined (therefore shielding McD and company from criticism because of some undefined term). Star “being asked to do” is an undefined term and hence shielding from Criticism. When does any DT get asked to be blown off ball for three yards and turned completely with his back to the play? This is the fans don’t know football argument so therefore can’t criticize. Fact: that 1 yard gap to fill turns into a 4 yard hole when Skates is off the LOS by 3 yards, also that 3 yard blown off kills LBer angles and provides more wash for them to work through.

The London Chargers? In the AFC East? It could happen
MAJBobby replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It does up to a cap. Seem for most people that is fine because they are not going to earn much over what that Cap is. For players making millions they will blow that cap by the first game check. They could always do what they did for Civilians Serving in War Zones and make an exemption as well I know Contractors that were with me in Iraq fell under the same protections I did up to your first 125K is tax free. The problem is we are talking Millions here and I dont see either Government giving up their chance to bit at the taxing of player that are earning multi-millions. -

The London Chargers? In the AFC East? It could happen
MAJBobby replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes I was stationed in the UK as part of my work for a couple years. I paid Both UK and US tax on my income until my Foreign Income Tax Exemption was approved by the US. Now when I did my income taxes I also got credits back for all my foreign tax so in essence I got back what I paid in UK Taxes. However there is a cap to that so I am sure for example when a Signing Bonus is paid it will be taxed both by US and UK, in theory the player Like myself could use the Foreign income exclusion, foreign tax credit, or foreign tax deduction as well, but likely would be capped, I never made the amount of these players obviously so I would not know about the capping. Here is the capping on the Foreign Income Exemption so Yeah would not really help the players "The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE, using IRS Form 2555) allows you to exclude a certain amount of your FOREIGN EARNED income from US tax. For tax year 2018 (filing in 2019) the exclusion amount is $103,900. What this means is that if, for example, you earned $118,000 in 2018, you can subtract $103,900 from that leaving $14,100 as taxable by the US." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/americanfootball/11181223/London-based-NFL-team-receives-boost-with-Chancellor-confirming-he-has-held-talks-over-a-Wembley-franchise.html "As Chancellor, Osborne would have the power to offer financial incentives to any NFL team relocating to the UK and has previously agreed exemptions for visiting sports stars who would otherwise baulk at paying its prohibitively high taxes." Now that seems to point to Chancellor Osborne pointing at Tax Breaks and Exemptions (granted that was for the current series), not sure if he is willing to let the UK not get a bite in taxes at all the Millions those players will make with a full time team based there. Personally I would love the game to go Internationally. IMO that is the Biggest Hurdle to an International Franchise (not the travel or such) but the taxes to make sure the International Franchise isn't automatically handicapped when it comes to signing players and such. It will be the biggest hurdle faced, just look at UFA now, the States with Zero income tax can sign players cheaper than players going to states with High Income Taxes. -

https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/dd4c/ae9823ed926d4405290c7e892775af3f2a3e.pdf A London Based organisation would get taxed fully on signing bonuses ETC (Double Taxed as well) And then the exemptions are not big enough to get the credit back for those. Much like the US, the UK also taxes income made Internationally as well. As of 2013, players appearing in International Series games were subject to UK tax on their income and endorsements on a pro rata basis. If expanded to a full slate of regular season games, it has been suggested that unless the government granted exemptions to attract the NFL, which have been applied to some but not all sports/athletes, then the difference between the UK and US tax codes would be sufficient to dissuade players who are free agents from signing for a London franchise. The talks between the Chancellor and the NFL from 2014 onwards were interpreted by the media as a willingness to offer support in the form of promises of tax exemptions. - So it looks like the UK Would have to decide essentially to waive the double tax otherwise there is NO player that will sign up for that. You know the US isnt waiving their Taxes -

What Player will sign up to be Double Taxed? The London Franchise will not be a good one. Goff would have only made 4M of his 27M contract from his rookie year with the International Tax Laws -

MAJBobby replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think there is alot of issues with a London Based team, with the Biggest being International Tax Laws. What player would want to sign up for this: As the top pick in 2016, Goff is projected to command $27,946,656 over the course of his rookie contract, including an $18,515,839 signing bonus. Of course, he will never pocket the full amount. Goff will have to pay the Taxman. The U.S. has one of the lowest tax rates in the world for individuals at a maximum of 39.6%. Thus, $11,066,875.78 of Goff’s $27,946,656 salary will be devoted to federal tax. If that sounds bad, imagine if the Rams had moved to London. The U.S. taxes its citizens and residents on their worldwide income, so any money an American football player makes in London would be taxable by the U.S. The U.K. would also tax Goff’s salary. The U.K.’s highest individual tax rate is 45%.23 So Goff would also owe an extra $12,575,995.20 to the U.K. If Goff did nothing to mitigate this tax liability via the foreign income exclusion, foreign tax credit, or foreign tax deduction, he would be left with only $4,303,785.02 of his original salary. https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/dd4c/ae9823ed926d4405290c7e892775af3f2a3e.pdf -
Postgame Thread Bills Redskins
MAJBobby replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
was either this or the Biebs (and I sure as hell wasnt doing that) -
Offense goes through Chubb with Hunt in the game as well. Baker plays spread the Ball to Landry and OBJ he will throw picks like h has ALL season. But Freddy Kitchens (worst coach in the NFL) wont see that.

We passed on Gordon. How 'bout Dez?
MAJBobby replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives

Two easy little words. The Problems with the browns are::::: FREDDIE KITCHENS So the NFL Targets OBJ and Landry... HMMMM Go Figure.... When are they going to do something to Diggs? -
Browns Safety Waived after Threatening Fans
MAJBobby replied to JMF2006's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This entire thing is a Joke. The NFL tells Landry and OBJ to change their cleats or not play yet never do anything about Diggs and his custom cleats. Talk about more inconsistencies from this League -
