Mickelson threatens to leave over taxes
Personally, I would recommend Washington state over Nevada. Just as easy to establish residency, but a much nicer place to "live". But dealing with CA non resident tax forms is one big pain in the ass.— January 22, 2013 9:21 a.m.
San Diego’s Qualcomm is the fifth-largest user of H-1B talent
Surfpuppy619 Yeah, I read about this too. But there's got to a little more to the story than we know at this time. The guy is 49 yrs old, he didn't get his BA until 1998, which took at least 6 yrs, when he 34 and it was another 6 yrs until he got his JD in 2004, when he was 40. Not the usual time line. I am curious as to what else has gone on in the 30 + yrs since he finished high school. 42% of the people with college loan debt are in the 30-50 age group. This guy was already in his mid 30's when he started law school, which is what, probably at least 10 yrs older the when most people start law school? Maybe he should have given that more thought at the time. And at this point, we have only his word that he is diabetic, slightly autistic and $250k in debt. Like I said, has to be more to the story.— January 22, 2013 7:27 a.m.

surfpuppy619. His "exploits" at SaMoHi are well know, that's true. But it's all about context: Ken Rizzo of the reknowned Mickey Owen Baseball School recalling Sheen's four summers at the rural camp" There's no doubt he could have played in college. Maybe even at a lower level Division 1 school. He had baseball skills. But he wasn't going to be playing at Arizona State, or Stanford, or UCLA. "I remember sitting there with him and telling him that I thought it was a longshot that he could make the pros." Said Sheen himself "I used to go to this place in Missouri, called the Mickey Owen Baseball School. I saw an ad in The Sporting News or Baseball Digest when I was in high school. I went to get scouted. But I looked at the talent there and knew I couldn't do it for a living." Good HS athlete, yeah. But "advanced" athlete?? I scoff at the notion. Kind of like saying Philip Rivers is every bit as good as a HoF quarterback. LOL Just my opinion. Opinions vary— January 21, 2013 10:24 a.m.

I'm not sure what the relevance of your comment is. I was pointing out to surfpuppy619 1 particular instance in which steroids did increase the athleticism of an individual who was not an advanced athlete, not making a judgement on Charlie Sheen.— January 21, 2013 7:53 a.m.

Don Bauder read my above comment. It was a DII school and he left partway thru his 3rd season. http://leaf.davidzingler.com/coach.html— January 21, 2013 7:48 a.m.

Don Bauder, he made Phi Beta Kappa in 1997.— January 20, 2013 10:53 p.m.

Charlie sheen has talked publicly on many occasions about his steriod use during trainng for his role in Major League. He did them for 6 or 8 weeks and says he gained several mph on his "fastball". I'd hardly call Sheen an advanced athlete though.— January 20, 2013 10:47 p.m.

He was at West Texas A&M. He resigned just after the start of his 3rd season there after a police investigation into reports that he illegally obtained prescription painkillers. Apparently he was a pretty good QB coach because they became one of the top DII passing offenses. He also was the men's golf coach. You have to wonder if the brainstem tumor had anything to do with his erratic behavior the last few years.— January 20, 2013 10:43 p.m.
