What a week it has been. With barely any time left before I take the Florida Bar Exam, I have been bogged down covering the pending NCAA investigations at UNC, USC, Alabama, Georgia, and UF. It is nice to finally see the NCAA looking into a few agent/player benefit accusations. We all know that it […]

I am smack in the middle of my last full-length Florida Bar Practice Exam. Today, the focus is Day 2 of the exam – the Multistate Portion, which is a whopping 6 hours of 200 multiple choice questions. Envy me yet? I know I have been bitching a lot about this test; hopefully I haven’t […]
After what seemed like the slowest sports news week of the year, this week has been full of stories – mostly revolving around LeBron James. I’m a little hungover from the excitement of Wade, Bosh, and James in the city that I will most likely be returning to in less than a month. Not guaranteeing […]
No one has “getting burned by an advisee” on their to-do list. In fact, not long ago, I wrote a post about what types of claims an advisor may have against an advisee should the advisee use the advisor’s services and follow up with a “I’m not paying you, but I really appreciate the help” […]
Friday really crept up on me! I had no idea it was Friday until a couple of hours ago and then realized that I needed to churn out the weekly Friday Wrap-Up.

And […]

Yesterday, I took my first simulated Multi-State Bar Examination. Talk about a draining experience! Imagine sitting down for 7 hours, only one of those hours aside as a lunch break, and hammering away at 200 difficult multiple choice problems. Yeah, I’m not really looking forward to 2 days of that in roughly a month from […]
It is usually not until later in the year that the discussion surrounding baseball’s inequity bubbles in the minds of writers. We all know about the huge disparity between the payroll of the New York Yankees and the Florida Marlins, yet the Marlins were able to fight off Goliath in the 2003 World Series. That […]

Is The Reward Worth The Risk?
I feel as though a lot of agents spend a good amount of time trying to dissuade potential new entrants into the industry from actually pursuing their dreams. It is evident in many of our Interview with the Agent pieces along with agent interviews outside of the confines of this site. And truthfully, there is […]
