While tax evasion has been a historical issue in Greece, taxes are legally mandatory. The 50% exemption stat he found likely refers to low-income thresholds, not optionality.

Bronny James should be required to use 'LeBron James Jr.' in the box score instead of 'B. James'

I really don't like the fact that [Bronny] is going by Bronny. Why not? His name's LeBron James Jr. Just go LeBron James Jr. I don't like calling like it's even in the box score. It's B James. Yeah. I don't like that, bro. I agree with you. The name is LeBron James Jr.

This is a subjective preference about player naming conventions.

This is a subjective opinion on player psychology that can't be definitively proven, though most competitive athletes publicly state they want to be recognized.

A 24-team College Football Playoff is starting to make sense

I'm starting to grow on it. My problem is, I'm thinking about it in just this year where we actually had parity.

This is a subjective opinion about playoff format and cannot be definitively judged.
