Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (6/25/2010)

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 […]

Busy week with the MLB Draft.  Had some clients we were advising get drafted and some surprisingly go undrafted.  One thing is always certain about the MLB Draft – there is a lot of uncertainty going into it.  I know a lot of you want to know the names of the guys that Dynasty has […]

2010 NBA Mock Draft 2.0 (First Round)

Washington Wizards: John Wall/Kentucky- After being argueably the best in college basketball for an entire season, he will rightfully go first overall. Philadelphia 76ers: Evan Turner/Ohio State- Even though Philly’s new A.I. keeps the sixers afloat, Turner is too good to pass up. Either Iguodala and Turner mesh, or they ship Iguodala away for a […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (5/28/2010)

I am ready for a new phone.  I don’t think I hate anything or anyone as much as I hate the hourglass on my Blackberry Curve.  The damn icon is the death of me.  I have to take out the battery at least five times per day.  But not for much longer.  Yesterday, I went […]

Brooklyn Bound

The New Jersey Nets are this year’s victim of the NBA Draft Lottery, holding the NBA’s worst record this season, and yet receiving the third pick in the Draft.  While they may miss out on drafting Kentucky superstar John Wall, new owner and Russian billionaire, Mikhail Prokhorov, expects greatness from his Brooklyn-bound squad.

2010 NBA Mock Draft

We all do it, right? It’s the end of your team’s season, they have either been eliminated from playoff contention or been eliminated in a less than thrilling fashion in the playoffs, by for example, waking three sleeping giants in Celtics jerseys.

In two hours, I will be on stage at the O’Connell Center (where UF plays its basketball games), officially graduating from University of Florida’s Levin College of Law.  The whole family is in town, which is nice (but rare).  On Monday, I begin studying for the Florida Bar.  As I have mentioned before, other than […]
