Carnival of the NBA #48

Rolling out Carnival of the NBA #48 is MVN basketball blog, Taking it to the Rack. The title: Crashing the Party [Carnival of the NBA #48].

I Want to be a Sports Agent made it into the carnival with our post on James Gandolfini’s new role as Sonny Vaccaro on an HBO upcoming feature: [Gandolfini / Vaccaro: There Is No Retiring From This]. Props to this Carnival’s host for giving us highest link placement.

Let me now take this time to fill up some space by suggesting that you subscribe to SportsAgentBlog.com. By subscribing in an RSS Reader (we prefer Google Reader), you get instant updates when a post is made, you avoid advertisements, and we do not benefit one bit (in fact, our hit counter is adversely affected). Why do we want you to subscribe? Because it enhances your reading experience, and in the end, we write for all of you.

Heitner has represented numerous athletes and sports agents as legal counsel.
