I made my 4th appearance as a Panelist on Rick Horrow’s Beyond the Game this past Saturday, which airs on CBS 12 in Palm Beach, Florida (video is embedded at the bottom of this post). So who wants to represent me in my broadcast journalism career? I’m heading into the Championship Game of Fantasy Football; I hope to bring home the championship for the 2nd year in a row…and I refuse to play in more than 1 league per year. Anyone have fun plans for between now and New Years Eve? No days off here at Sports Agent Blog! Buy this book. Here are some stories I missed over the past week:
