This weekly wrap-up is coming to you from Keswick Hall in Charlottesville, Virginia, where the terrain is beautiful and the golf is a blast. The food is not bad either. Between the PGA National in West Palm Beach and Keswick Hall in Charlottesville and four days of golf in the past week, I am pretty worn out. Not to mention all my clients at Heitner Legal are keeping me very busy. Off to Los Angeles on Wednesday and then Las Vegas the following day. The traveling must continue. This week on FORBES: (1) New York Sports Teams On Watch For New Cybersquatters; (2) National Basketball Players Association Picks New General Counsel; (3) Relativity Sports Signs Baseball Agent Away From Rival Octagon; (4) College Football Fans Now Have A Game Day Belt; (5) Could Peyton Manning Be Headed To Canton In A Denver Broncos Jersey?; and (6) Brooklyn Nets Partner With Fantasy Sports Company FanDuel.
