It’s not in time for Christmas, but a new book due out next month will still seem like a lump of coal in Reggie Bush’s stocking this holiday. Roughly one month after Lloyd Lake, a partner along with San Diego businessman Michael Michaels in the failed sports marketing agency New Era Sports & Entertainment, played […]

Nothing like Monday Night Football, especially when you are barely losing in your big fantasy football league and you have one player left who may push you over the top. Often times, it will be a kicker or third WR, but you still think you have a shot. Anyway, I was sent the above video, […]
Reggie Bush of the New Orleans Saints has (again) fired Mike Ornstein, the Reebok representative and CEO of the Santa Monica-CA based The Sports Link, who began serving as Bush’s marketing agent in January 2006 and who once hired Bush as a paid-summer intern. The Sports Link represents former NFL players Marcus Allen, Tim Brown […]
Paul Solotaroff recently wrote an interesting article for Men’s Journal titled “Casualties of the NFL,” detailing the horrendous strain professional football players put on their bodies (by choice), and the ramifications down the road of the injuries they often play through (often with the aid of copious pain medication). But what’s waiting at the end […]
I blogged last week that Lloyd Lake, co-founder of the now defunct New Era Sports & Entertainment along with partner Michael Michaels, was scheduled to meet Friday with NCAA investigators and allegedly supply them with documents and receipts, including a deposit slip, showing that Lake had placed hundreds of dollars into Reggie Bush’s personal bank […]

The suit […]
Trash the cheeseburger (you know it’s not kosher) and get ready for your Friday wrap up of links that I failed to cover during the week. Agents only have 10 minutes to sell their 1st round potential draft picks in the 2008 NFL Draft (down from 15 minutes for each team to select). Hopefully this […]

Surging Super Chargers
With Tuesday’s trade for Chris Chambers and their performance these last couple weeks, it seems that the San Diego Chargers are trying to get back on track…not that they’re back on track just yet. Let me preface this by saying that I agree 100% with Paul’s September post touching on how horrid the decision to […]
The Cleveland Indians recently struck a deal with IMG to find a sponsor to claim the naming rights for Jacobs Field. CAA has been employed by the New York Yankees to procure sponsors for their future new stadium [CAA: Creative Acquisition Agency]. If the Minnesota Vikings ever decided to drop their stadium’s name, which falls […]
It was April 15th when I last blogged on the Reggie Bush fiasco (see Yahoo! timeline) and wrote that “Bush may be able to evade tacklers, but the increasingly intricate web cast by the growing group of arguably unsavory characters with whom he’s aligned himself may prove tougher.” At the time, Bush had just settled […]
