Don't think a 1st rounder qualifies as a diamond in the rough type pick...

Jay Feaster says "Jankowski" and "Poirer". I am very happy the Jets do not follow the Calgary draft strategy.

Pet prospect is pet prospect.
I think he'll earn his 13 spot unlike some thinking he's a reach quite you

Are players assessed income tax based on where they play or where they reside? I know that most occupations are assessed based on geographic location of employer but I thought there was a workaround/loophole for professional athletes that was used for Canadian-based teams in the 90's when CDN economy was floundering and US economy was relatively dominant. I could be quite wrong and maybe they just paid their stars in US $ to compensate for currency exchange differential but I thought it involved loophole for taxes too..anyone know?

I could be completely wrong on this...but I recall some NFL beat writers saying it is based on where they play each game. Should be no different for any athlete. So Ladd for example, half his salary is taxed as if he works in Winnipeg, the other half is 3/82 for Minnesota, 3/82 Chicago, 1/82 Edmonton, etc etc.
