David Falk Talks About Representing Coach K

Last Thursday, CNBC’s Darren Rovell spoke with sports agent, David Falk. David Falk calls Coach K the Michael Jordan of coaching.  Not many people would be able to defend such a claim, but I guess Falk can, as he repped Jordan in his playing days.  Falk has looked to create long-term relationships for Coach K […]

Casey Close To Leaving CAA

A week ago, a reader emailed me the following question: Have you heard anything about Casey Close leaving CAA to start up his own company with David Falk? Apparently, the rumor had been floating around for a month or so, but after doing some research, I had no way to confirm it.  Thus, I never ran the story. […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (5/15/09)

The video above is quite humorous.  The video under this text and before the links is not intended to give you a laugh, but still is pretty damn good in my book.  It has been a relaxing week.  I finished my last finals of my second year of law school, and had a lot of […]

Which Law School Breeds Success?

Should I go to law school? What law school should I go to? Should I go to a law school that has a sports law specialty? What should I Major in at my undergraduate institution? Do my Minors matter? Those are some of the most common questions that I receive by email, even though all […]

Someone Help This Man

Drop your agent, fine, but drop your agent and talk smack about the team that currently employs you?  Not so bright.  I have no problem with a player internally doubting whether he made a correct business decision to stay with a team, but to publicize your feelings to ESPN is not always a brilliant idea.  […]

Did The Clips Get Falked?

That’s right, the guy who has made few (if any) NBA-related headlines since he signed Elton Brand back in 1999 is once again having his name appear in the body of many articles…again because of Elton Brand.  Rumor is that William Wesley still likes him, but Donald Dell will always hate him and I believe […]

Falk Downs Dell

Darren Rovell got David Falk to talk trash about one time boss, Donald Dell. Rovell hypothesized that Falk was talking about Dell. After speaking to Dell in person last year, I will second that opinion. Here is what Falk recently had to say to Darren: “A guy who has been in the sports business for […]
