Are you F#%^&ng kidding me!!!!!!! Super Beat for some dude.
 
So I just see on ESPN that the guy who caught the Bonds 756 homerun ball has to pay 35% taxes on the value of the ball...EVEN IF HE FECKING KEEPS IT!


Just wow! gg IRS.

Btw, the value of the ball is marked at just over 600k so if the guy keeps it he owes Uncle Sam 200k. SICK!

the only way he can afford to pay the taxes to keep it is to sell it, that's nuttier than squirrel turds

LOL the value of that ball is somewhat subjective, I think that 200k could easily be argued down to exactly zero by any good lawyer.

though i could be wrong. if you were to obtain a van gogh somehow do u have to pay like 300k on a 900k piece? seems pretty analgous.

I guess if the Van Gogh got knocked by a 40" wodden bat and somehow traveled about 350ft or so and one person came out with the painting in a big mob with the painting unscathed...

sure, I can see that.
