It is officially wedding season. Went to a beautiful one last weekend and have another wedding to attend tonight. Then, two more weddings before the end of the year. I should be heading to Vancouver and Oregon in between, but no complaints. I would not have it any other way. Just wrapped up my first semester teaching Sports Law at the University of Florida Levin College of Law, which was quite the experience, since I only graduated from there five years ago. It has been fun teaching at Indiana University Bloomington for three years, followed by the graduate program at the University of Florida and now at UF Law. As always, I’ve been busy writing at Forbes. You can find my column here. And for some stories you may have missed:
