I propose that we all rally to propose legislation that entitles professional athletes who sign a contract and play a minimum of 3 years in the Bay State of Massachusetts to become tax exempt for wages earned in that period.   :o

If they stay five years they get liefetime passes to the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield and Six Flag Season Passes.

By "Cowder" do you mean Jae Crowder or Clam Chowder?

Or how about they pay their taxes and their kids can enjoy better schools, they can drive their luxury cars in peace knowing that we have the lowest traffic fatality rate in the nation, any businesses they start or invest in will be doing so in the state with the highest per-captia venture capital in the nation, they can also play for the best NFL team of the last 15 years and the best basketball team in the history of the sport.

I mean, I would pay my taxes twice over if it meant my kids weren't being educated in Florida.
