@lomaxx Capital gains tax is a different ratio than income tax. Its looked at separate from income tax for your exact scenario. So people who make 75k annually and have a one off windfall don’t get hit with a 30% rate. Most CGT will be a 15% tax for the CGT amount only, not your income

This is where the “tax the rich” crowd lose me. Say I earn 90k a year and in 2027 I inherit $200,000 I invest that $200k and after 10 years in the stock market it’s now worth $400k If I sell it and realise the $200k capital gain, what the govt and the “tax the rich” crowd are saying is that I should be taxed as if I make $290k every year. Now if I try and split that CGT income across 2 people I’m “greedy” and avoiding tax But if I sell down in 4x $100k lots over 4 years and minimise my tax, that’s ok and nobody bats an eyelid - but it’s the same principle.

@cdotharrison She already has a 14 second victory in UFC, so it’s not the first time. but this did look sus.

@Gambo987 We end with 6 of the last 8 games at home, so I think that’s a nice 8 game stretch to see what he has.

Ok schedule is out - what is your prediction for when Carson Beck takes over as the starting QB. Get it down in writing now.

@42Cyc 4100 total yards and 37 total TDs- MAYBE, but not pure passing. I’d shave a few hundred yards off both Jefferson and Addison while you’re at it

2026 Vikings offensive predictions: Kyler Murray: 4100 Yards, 37 TDs, 11 INTs Justin Jefferson: 1700 Yards, 9 TDs Jordan Addison: 1000 Yards, 13 TDs Jauan Jennings: 700 Yards, 6 TDs

@Bickley_Marotta Over achieving

#Suns fans, fill in the blank - The Suns just had a ___ season

@BoBrack OL and defensive picks only, hopefully. Trade a 6th for Anthony Richardson, and maybe sign Deebo, and LaFleur has some interesting toys to play with. And convince Calais to return, of course!

If the Cardinals are serious about their future QB, 34 isn’t the time to force it. Stack the roster now and set the stage for a real swing next offseason. An addition at Edge, DL or OT would be nice.

@BLAKEYMCSHAKEY @Pat_Thorman Because the post infers the Cardinals chose to give him that amount of money, and called them a clown show. The cardinals didn’t offer Love that amount, it’s guaranteed per the CBA for any player drafted in that position. That’s a huge difference.

@JJB1183 @Pat_Thorman Yes...and? The original post said he was getting the money. Why do you keep arguing about it?

Jeremiyah Love is owed $50,537,014, all guaranteed, before taking an NFL snap (per Spotrac). No RB contract in NFL history has guaranteed that much money. Clownshow.

@UnpluggedDoug @WhirlwindGolf You added a new listener, looking forward to checking out the show!

I can tell two things: 1) you're a good dude. I respect people who disagree with facts yet don't have to be a jerk doing it 2) you aren't in the #UnpluggedArmy I know by your tweet you'd love the info you get listening to DougFranzUnplugged.com preseted by @WhirlwindGolf

#Cardinals fans, fill in the blank - The Cards drafting Jeremiyah Love made me say ___

@BLAKEYMCSHAKEY @Pat_Thorman Any 3rd pick overall is going to make 50m cash. It’s tiered by pick position. All first round rookies are.

@JJB1183 @Pat_Thorman The tweet wasn't talking about the cap, just the guaranteed money. You could do the same thing with other free agents by converting much of the contract to signing bonuses. The cap hit is irrelevant, love is still gonna make 50 million in cash.

@HBalzer721 @UnpluggedDoug Dak was in place and Dallas had solid trenches. Goff was in place and lions had a solid O line, plus had Montgomery as co-backfield. Rams did it backwards, but didn’t win until they got a QB years later. Having a RB and no QB = not winning

@JJB1183 @UnpluggedDoug Ezekiel Elliott, Jahmyr Gibbs (12th overall, but two spots after arbitrary top 10). Rams were in playoffs two seasons after Gurley selection.

The #Apocalypse has arrived. I moved here in 07 & was continually amazed at how bad #SunsUp & #BirdGang were at the #NBA & #NFLDraft For the 1st time in 20 years, I totally agree with the last two 1st round picks for the Suns and Cardinals The Birds crushed it #UnpluggedArmy

@Cardschatter @MoveTheSticks Would love to see McCoy land in AZ

With the #AZCardinals set to pick second in the second round, the top players left according to @MoveTheSticks: S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren CB Jermod McCoy CB Colton Hood WR Denzel Boston Edge T.J. Parker Edge Cashius Howell ILB C.J. Allen DT Kayden McDonald

@BLAKEYMCSHAKEY @Pat_Thorman Ts not the same as signing a free agent. Any player they selected is getting that money. That’s why it’s pointless to say we’re paying a RB that much, like there was another option. A RT would’ve instantly been top 12 for the position. He won’t count 12m a year against the cap

@JJB1183 @Pat_Thorman That....still means he's getting the money.

@Gambo987 Based on this, if Jets took Reese and Bailey was there at 3, you think AZ still goes Love?

Based on actual homework and not guess work this is the order I had for the Cardinals and yes, we had Jeremiyah Love as their top choice - so do I believe they got the #1 guy on their list - Yes 1000%

@BreidenFehoko There wasn’t a player available at 3 worthy of 50m, but it’s a misleading number. It’ll be primarily paid as a signing bonus and spread across 4 years. Like Cam Ward got 50m over 4yrs last year, but his salary was 840k this season. So don’t get hung up on the numbers

The Cardinals just gave 50 million guaranteed to a guy not named Jahmyr Gibbs or Bijan Robinson. Nothing against Love but you can’t take running backs that early. Especially to a team that has glaring holes.

#Cardinals fans - What GIF best represents your feelings about the team taking Love at #3?

@PhxBrandon6565 @Bickley_Marotta The price to move from 9-6 is much less than 9-3. Or we were asking for too much and Browns were reasonable

@Bickley_Marotta How were the Browns able to trade back but AZ couldn’t pull it off??

@Bickley_Marotta Nonsense. No regrets on letting my season tickets go. Teams will still stack the box and AZ will still be bottom 10 in rushing. Both our lines are weak. We will waste his talent

Bickley thinks picking Jeremiyah Love can bring hope back to #Cardinals fans. What do you think?
