The government isn't taking 50% of his pay. SMH Yes it is. Japanease government will take its cut from the Lexus he buys in addition to the state sales tax, Dicks burgers will up there prices to pay the gov requirement for $15.00/hr minimum wages, the gov will take the excessive property and vehicle taxes for such propositions as ST3, the gov will take their cut in all the sugary drinks and other products his consumes, the gov will take their cut in the more expensive paper straws he's forced to use and etc, etc. WTF. Go back to your mom's basement.

I changed it to not offend some readers. But cannabis is legal in Seattle so no different than saying he drank a Bud in my book. Besides one with as much as gray hair as he's got definitely doesn't partake in cannabis but I'm sure that thought has crossed his mind.

I don't know UW's staff rule, but he freely partaking of a substance that his athletes can't is a bad principle. (Yes, I'm sure it happens with someone, somewhere). Take my team for instance. I tell them if they are found out to be using drugs, they are dismissed from the team. For me to go out and do it would be extreme hypocrisy. I don't know Coach Cook or anyone involved with his program, I just know how I'd feel if someone said it about me.

Are you that close a friend of his? A trusted confidant? Psychic?

Are you saying that most coaches never drink?

If you live here, the more you make, the lower your total % income goes to taxes.

I should also point out Keegan signed a five-year extension at the end of last season, that may mean a bump to over $300K. 💰💰💰

How were you able to verify these?
