Like I said you are an imbecile. The top tax rate last year was I believe 38% and there are many states in which he plays where they are no state taxes. When they play in a state they only get taxed for his pay for that game. If he played the Red Sox he would get taxed at 6.6% for just that game. So max tax would be 44.6% for that game. Now please tell me how he gets taxed at 75%. In CA he gets taxed at the state rate.
