Quote:I thought about posting a new thread about State Tax ramifications concerning Alex Mack.


I am not starting a discussion on taxes, if you have strong beliefs on taxes, post in the Sideline. Not here!


 

A casual look shows that in Ohio he may be responsible for:


 

5.92%      State Tax


1.00%      Cleveland


2.25%      Township


1.25%       County/Local


 

This is an average figure based on locations where high income individuals might choose to live.


There is another set of education, property and associated taxes that are more location specific.


 

After speaking with an Enrolled Agent I know in Shaker Heights with first hand knowledge of


NFL Player exposure to taxes, she states that the Jaguars are playing with a 15% advantage over


Cleveland on taxes, fees and additional levy's.


 

That and the fact Mack would prefer to play elsewhere and has an agent who is extremely creative in packaging a deal


to make his client happy would all be advantages to the Jaguars. Her family are legacy ticket holders and she loathes us. Good.


 

SO, by the Jags being patient and seeing what the market would bring, knowing that their intended acquisition would like to move and having
an additional 15% or so to play with while packaging an offer to the total disadvantage of the Browns, with help of his agent is all good. 
I would not care to sit across the poker table with Dave.


 

 Go Jags
