Does the MSB get more traffic if he stays in Toronto or goes to LA?




There'll be a spike in traffic either way, but the most sustained shite-show would come from a Lakers signing no question.

It all depends on his residency for taxes...his full-time residency will be California regardless, so he may not have to pay taxes regardless. I don't think that part matters in the slightest.


The $11m number comes from an accountant that does Professional Athletes Taxes.

It’s accurate.

Taxes are based on where each game is played. Playing in a low tax state results in half of the players' game checks taxed at the low rate. The away games are taxed at each locations rate.

They are also taxed again in your resident state.

Residency is a big deal.

dude on raps realgm board gets gold medal. he's 100% sincere. sources are ex-gf and various other rabble.
he sez...

Kawhi is not on the plane. He is chillin' at the Hazelton (hotel) as we speak, having been out late last night with Drake and the crew at Baro. This was corroborated by my ex, who was there this morning (she is one of these 5am early riser types - the reason we are not together any more). Anyways, she said the plane was mostly loaded with Home Depot boxes, plastic totes and a pink Cadillac Escalade battery powered toy car. Several people loaded it up, but only two people boarded the plane itself. One was an Asian looking dude, and the other - wait for it - was Fake Kawhi! He was wearing a Raptors Championship ball cap, a Clippers jersey, Laker shorts, and of course New Balance signature shoes. It looks like MLSE is going to troll the Lakers and Clippers by sending this Fake Kawhi to be spotted upon arrival at SAN (San Diego) airport.

I feel like I’ve endured a ton of plane tracking talk as a LSU fan.

This is the kind of quality shite-posting that lets you know we're really close to an actual decision.
