Prior to this past weekend, Zack Greinke was represented by baseball powerhouse SFX. Many believe that Greinke was frustrated with being “stuck” in Kansas City, and made a switch to a new agency with the hope that it would possibly cause the Royals organization to move him to a new team. Greinke switched to Jeff […]
Happy Thanksgiving weekend to all. Anyone go out to the stores real early today? With so many great deals to be found online, I feel like it is not even necessary to do your body such a disservice by waking up so early after a big day of eating. I am up in Tallahassee, Florida […]
Creative Artists Agency’s basketball agent, Leon Rose, and newly minted coaches agent, William “Worldwide Wes” Wesley, were recently spotted discussing a purchase of 12 apartments on 2 floors of the W New York Downtown Hotel & Residences.

I am up in New York for the weekend, staying in Scarsdale, but I will be in the City all day today. A lot of business meetings scheduled. Saturday will be a true day of rest, as I celebrate a friend’s birthday. Can’t beat the fact that one of my clients will be at the […]

All kidding aside, minus the costs (time and money), shady business, and sleepless nights involved, are you […]
It’s July 1st. Basketball junkies have been waiting for this day for quite some time. Their favorite teams can start talking to LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh…for the past year, we have been doing all the talking for those teams. Those three players are getting the most hype out of this ridiculous class of […]
We all know about Lagardere’s recent purchase of Blue Entertainment Sports Television from the hands of private investment firm, Blue Equity. Interestingly, BEST was not the only company looking for an infusion of cash and a potential exit from the world of representation, event management, and sports/entertainment marketing. Juggernaut, Creative Artists Agency may also be […]
First Round Bryce Harper (Washington Nationals) – Boras Corp. – Interesting to note that Bud Selig referred to Harper as an outfielder even though he has played mostly catcher his entire life. Get this kid on the fast track through the Minors. Jameson Tallion (Pittsburgh Pirates) – Hendricks Sports Management – Big high school arm […]
