Not even going to watch this year. To disgusted with yesterday's game(s). To your point of the the games being fixed, I could see that in the Ravens game. Game changing calls totally being over looked in favor of KC and the slightest ones being called on the Ravens.

Well I guess this puts to bed the Super Bowl Logo color conspiracy theory.

For those of you saying the NFL needs to hire full time refs, how does that solve the problem? It's not like the NFL goes out hires new refs every year, most of them have 10+ years experience officiating in the NFL. The refs aren't going to suddenly get better eyesight or process visual information faster.

How does he live on that paltry net amount? But he doesn't pay $1.03M in FICA. The income limit where FICA withholding stops is $160K

While you're correct that there is a $160,000/yr limit on FICA, it only pertains to the Social Security piece, which is withheld at a rate of 6.2% up to that limit. The 1.45% Medicare withholding rate is unlimited; it applies to every dollar of earned income. I want to say that Bill Clinton took away that cap. I remember discussing with my Dad back then as to "what's the big deal" about a paltry 1.45% tax? His answer was that it probably costs Michael Jordan over $1 million per year. This examples proves that point.

Also, incomes above $200,000 are subject to additional Medicare tax. This is the Obamacare Tax. A quick search says that is 0.9%. So all totaled, 1.45% + 0.9% = 2.35%; on $43 Million is $1,057,500.

Tired of the woke bullsh,t. Five of my family put their lives on the line in combat during WW II, a sixth lost his in Viet Nam. They all marched under one national flag and one anthiem. No desire to enable NFL woke nosense. Screw them all.
 
I just got invited to a private Super Bowl party at a fancy bar…. VIP…. So if you ever wanted to know someone fancy… you’re there… me :)
