In response to "then they should go back to Montreal and hopefully get a new park." by groiny

I mean, probably.

This is weird I'll agree. At least the GB/Milwaukee Packers thing was geographically close.

right, that is what makes this even worse, you could have 2 cities in the vicinity, that would make alot of sense. -- nm - groiny Jun 20, 11:19 14
- Toronto currently has a rugby team. They play in a BRITISH league. All the other teams are in the UK. - Andie Jun 20, 11:21 13
  - that is a little different than sharing the team between 2 cities 20 hours apart. -- nm - groiny Jun 20, 11:21 12
    - But does that really matter? I'm sure both cities would have all the games televised. They'd still be able to go to games when they want. In this - pmb Jun 20, 11:27 2
      - so you have 2 stadiums to keep up for 1/4 max attendance all the time. - groiny Jun 20, 11:29 1
        
        There are definitely challenges, but your starting assumption of 1/4 max attendance presumes a result that may not be justified. - pmb Jun 20, 11:33
    - I mean, what currency would players even get *paid*in!?! -- nm - Spawn Jun 20, 11:23 1

    - oh, it is, and i don't know if the sharing thing would work, but i can see a way that it might. -- nm - Andie Jun 20, 11:22 6
      - and how would the players get paid? half their check taxed by Canada, the other half taxed by Florida? -- nm - groiny Jun 20, 11:23 5
        
        Probably, yes. As it is athletes have to pay taxes in all the states they play in on some basis. So it wouldn't be that much more difficult. -- (link) - pmb Jun 20, 11:37

        i assume the legal entity would exist in the country with the best tax laws for rich people. (aka, the US.) -- nm - Andie Jun 20, 11:24
