Why is Tampa Bay so successful creating championship teams?
The answer is simple and a growing trend. NO TAXES. I have seen hockey players bolt (no pun intended) to Florida as soon as they could. Look at the Vegas Golden Knights too. Championship calibre right out of the gate. Athletes look after their bottom line first and it’s no longer an “all for the team” thing unless they get to play with someone like Mahomes. Don’t think Brady didn’t pickTampa “just because they had the roster”. Many cities just can’t compete due to their taxes and athletes just wanting to get paid. I get it…but where does that leave the future of competition?

We have 1700 total sq. feet. It's not the house. But, I live in a desirable location on the water with a 10K lb. boat dock in sailboat depth water.

Hurricane coverage is called flood coverage down here. It's part of the deal living on the water. My house has went up $250K in value in the last year or so. That's why the insurance and taxes went through the roof.

He only pays $1,000 more per year in property taxes than I do for the Palatial Bugeater Estate here in Omaha.

Miami’s professional teams have been crappy for years… aside from the Heat (and that has more to do with Pat Riley’s influence than taxes).

Elsewhere in the state, Jacksonville and Orlando’s respective pro teams have been awful as well.

The Bucs were non-factors for years until signing Brady and the Rays are successful because of their minor league system/player development… NOT by luring/signing big name free agents.

So the OP’s hypothesis does not hold up.

I'd be for a steep puck tax on every goal the Lightning score in the finals from now on, if it makes a difference.
