Why is the sports fan who caught the ball from Barry Bonds’ 756th home run being sent a tax bill?

Roderick C asked:


As we all know, around this great country of ours, Barry Bonds scored his 756th home run recently breaking the all-time home run record of 755 set by Hank Aaron. A sports fan from New Jersey caught that ball which has a specified value to it. He was recently informed that he would be receiving a tax bill just for catching the ball. Why would he be receiving a tax bill if he has not sold the ball to anyone which would earn him 1 million dollars? From what I read, the government would collect roughly $100,000 to $200,000 in taxes. Please advise.

Just damn awnser asked:


We have a budget on a new sports car. We really dont want to go beyond ferrari or lamborghini, and dont want to spend all day at the shop. We are willing to do a bit of polishing, but thats about it. We dont want an old piece of junk, yet we want alot of power under the hood. Any recommendations?

This is the last olympics for baseball and softball, which I can’t really understand, but while they are at it, what about other sports that don’t really make much sense? I love the olympics, but ping-pong and competitive trampoline (come on! really? is that a sport?) might not need to be continued. What are your thoughts?

C.K. asked:


My main area of intrest is taking action shots and sports photos. Can anyone help or give me some suggestions to what I should be looking at? I’m planning to buy, but I don’t have an unlimited amount of funds, if you know what I mean. As a matter of fact, I’m kind of strapped. Any suggestions on the best deal with greatest performance?
