    That shit is going to get fixed faster than the NHL fixing the cap exploitation by backloading contracts so hits were based on year to year instead of AAV.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    It's nuts to me that the luxury/performance tax hit can be mitigated by the deferment and isn't just based on the AAV of the contract.

    The fact that his deferred payment is also interest free is also a massive L by his representation.

    Supposedly the deferments were his idea. He's pulling in like 45 mil a year on endorsements, which will likely go up being on the Dodgers.

    If he moves out of Cali by the time the deferred payments start kicking in he apparently wouldn't be subject to CA state taxes on it, so that counteracts any interest he'd be getting on it

    Dodgers are finalizing a trade for Glasnow and are assumed to be in the lead for Yamamoto, because of course they are.

    Trade should be completed soon as Glasnow just extended for 5 years, 135million.

    Ohtani always admired Kobe’s refusal to accept No as an answer.
