I am in Tempe, Arizona this weekend to speak at Arizona State’s 3rd Annual Conference On Sports & Entertainment Law. So many Jews (myself included) love Tim Tebow. Cannot wait until the start of the NBA regular season. I will be back in Miami for Tuesday’s game against the Boston Celtics. A few stories this week on Forbes.com: (1) Notre Dame Football’s Resurgence Ranks School Atop Rivals In Merchandise Sales; (2) Social Sports “Fan Card” Service Snags Tim Lincecum, Brett Favre And Over 1,200 Other Athletes; and (3) David Stern Retiring After 30 Successful Years As NBA Commissioner. Here are some links that recently caught my attention:
