It was covered all over the sports journalism landscape yesterday – The NFL lost its case in American Needle, Inc. v. National Football League. It wasn’t just a loss, it was a unanimous loss (9-0).

Woohoo! As of 3:43 p.m. yesterday, I was officially done with law school. Technically, I am not a law school graduate until May 14, but as long as I don’t have to step foot into the Levin College of Law’s library for the next couple of weeks, I’ll take it! The next two weeks will […]
Perhaps my twisted joke should be laid to rest. Scott Sicko, formerly known as the tight-end who passed up the opportunity to play professional football due to the fact that he did not want to play if he went undrafted, has now had a change of heart. An agent at National Sports Management has informed […]
