Each year in late June, college trained young men converge on the Theater of Madison Square Garden (and tune in on TV) to witness whether they will become millionaires. The realest game show I know of and reality TV at its finest, on draft day the League picks the best of the best (or at […]
Month: February 2008
It’s been an interesting month so far for David Falk. The once super agent represented Michael Jordan for the entirety of his career, and rose to prominence after splitting (quite contentiously) from ProServ and Donald Dell in 1992 in order to establish his own company, Falk Associates Management Enterprises (FAME), which he sold to the […]

Those Ivy League schools better watch out. I fully plan on making UF’s yearly symposium the premier gathering of […]

I personally find charity to be so important, that Dynasty lists it as one of the prongs of Services that we strive to provide. The Giving Back Fund, in conjunction with USC’s Sports Business Institute, is putting together […]
The saying is “come hard, or don’t come at all.” Reggie Bush—he comes strapped. Well, at least his bodyguard does. The latest bizarre turn of events in the once intriguing and now implausible Bush fiasco has former Blood-turned sports marketing agent Lloyd Lake walking out before his schedule deposition in relation to his lawsuit filed […]
At one time, sport figures and entertainment figures occupied different social worlds but now these individuals jump from one world to the next and have blurred the lines. Successful (sometimes not so successful) athletes tend to become entertainment figures during and after their competitive careers. One of the major issues that sport and entertainment lawyers […]
