So many drug related suspensions if there were a team in Amsterdam

Hopefully in the future they just quit testing for BS like marijuana.

They will qualify for foreign tax credits which could also be used by those on a London team assuming they meet the qualifications but with half their salary being derived in London I can't imagine them coming out equal to those residing in the states.


I believe the current income tax rate would put most players around 50% but then you have to get into currency used and exchange values.. I couldn't imagine being the salary cap guru for a foreign team..

Good point. Nothing will draw an inner city black youth like the promise of European cultural adventure.



There's plenty of inner city black youth in London for them to interact with.

It's more like Jag-you-wars!!! They can have Mark Hunt be the team spokesman.
