Shabbat Shalom/Merry Christmas Friday Wrap-Up (12/24/2010)

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:

Football

Baseball

Basketball

What makes the NFL championship game more fun than anything else is the huge range of Super Bowl prop bets we salivate upon each and every year. You can bet on anything from the national anthem to the commercials, but perhaps no Super Bowl prop provided by BetUS bet enjoys more love than who wins the MVP. Only eight defensive players have won the award, while receivers and tailbacks combine for just 13 MVP trophies. Yet if you’re going to play this Super Bowl prop bet, the first choice should always the quarterback position, which has won it 52-percent of the time.

Darren Heitner created Sports Agent Blog as a New Year's Resolution on December 31, 2005. Originally titled, "I Want To Be A Sports Agent," the website was founded with the intention of causing Heitner to learn more about the profession that he wanted to join, meet reputable individuals in the space and force himself to stay on top of the latest news and trends.

Heitner now runs Heitner Legal, P.L.L.C., which is a law firm with many practice areas, including sports law and contract law. Heitner has represented numerous athletes and sports agents as legal counsel. He has also served as an Adjunct Professor at Indiana University Bloomington from 2011-2014, where he created and taught a course titled, Sport Agency Management, which included subjects ranging from NCAA regulations to athlete agent certification and the rules governing the profession. Heitner serves as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Florida Levin College of Law, where he teaches a Sports Law class that includes case law surrounding athlete agents and the NCAA rules.
