Back to law school in lovely Gainesville, Florida. I had a real nice interview with BitterLawyer.com earlier this week. Been working hard all week on getting my baseball players some good endorsement opportunities. The Gators lost in double-OT to BYU yesterday – I really like BYU’s guard (you can tell by my tweets if you follow me on Twitter). Beautiful weather has finally arrived in Gainesville. Here are some stories I missed over the past week.
