I am going to go ahead and throw something out there that I doubt will be viewed favorably by most of the Sports Agent Blog’s readers. America’s fascination with sports is severely sick and twisted. Set fire to the stake, assemble the tar and feathers and send me straight to the guillotine, for I have […]

After being signed to his second ten-day contract with the Memphis Grizzlies on January 20th, and the initial threats of the Portland Trailblazers to all NBA teams, Darius Miles has officially signed with the Memphis Grizzlies. I wrote several articles relating to this specific matter regarding Miles (Blazers Miles From Resolving Conflict) and his financial […]
Rulon Davis has been invited, Kevin Grant has not. We are happy that Rulon will have another chance to blow away coaches and scouts, as he did at the Texas vs. The Nation game. We are also not disappointed about Grant, since all signs from his training facility point to him blowing away scouts at […]
“Friends don’t let friends wear the FroHawk. If you are a soon to be pro athlete and are considering hiring an agent. Just do the “FroHawk Search”. If they have any clients with Fro Hawks, pick a different agent.” Those are the words of Mark Cuban from his blog, blogmaverick.com. Despite his legal troubles with […]
Shawn Zobel is a young man who saw an opportunity and took advantage of it. There are 117 days left until the 2009 NFL Draft, and Zobel is already hard at work compiling information on all of the college seniors and eligible juniors that will be declaring early. He also has a nice interview up […]
After reading many articles including ESPN The Magazine’s Chris Broussard’s on Brandon Jennings‘ progress in Rome, along with checking out Jennings’ blog, When In Rome, you can certainly see why Jennings will be a lottery pick in 2009. He has clearly matured as a player already and will only get better until he makes him […]
Guest contribution from Neil Stratton of InsideTheLeague.com and Executive DIrector of the ’08 Hula Bowl. One question I get repeatedly, from newly certified agent to seasoned veteran, is: How do I get my kid into a college football all-star game? The question comes up so frequently that when I was invited by Darren to address […]
Every year, football agents, scouts, GMs, etc. start following the local papers very closely to see which college seniors will be invited to play in various post-season college football all-star games. Those games include the Senior Bowl, East-West Shrine Game, and my favorite title, Texas vs. The Nation Game. It seems like proper sponsors would […]
Thanksgiving is all about three things: turkey, family, and football. All three are very important to the standard American household. Turkey is quite tasty and happens to be extremely healthy (depending on the way you prepare it). Your family is composed of the only people you know will care for you at all times and […]
Now that steroids are being filtered out of baseball, will chicks no longer dig the longball? Highly doubtful. But GMs and scouts are focusing a lot more on speed and overall athleticism. Makes sense to me. While I am not a loyal student of sabermetrics, I do value stats like OBP (on-base percentage) and OPS […]
