The only joke I will make about this story is based on the player’s last name – It really makes me sick-o. Unless you work at Creative Artists Agency, Maximum Sports, BEST, Athletes First, Rosenhaus Sports, or Priority Sports (I am probably missing a few at this level), not a day goes by that you […]

Johnny Lujan promoted to Triple-A, Carl Krauser helping his team in New Zealand knock off a formerly undefeated team, and my last class as a law school student. It has been an exciting week. That said, I need to now buckle down and study for my two law school exams (Cyberspace Law followed by Trade […]
Yesterday, I received an email from the UFL about the relaunch of their website (the site happens to look MUCH better), which has a new link section for all upcoming individual team tryouts. Clicking on an open tryout link will lead you to registration, location, playing surface, lodging, contact, and cost information. The links for […]
Did you know that there is a clause in Brandon Marshall‘s contract that says he will earn a $2.7 million roster bonus in 2014 if he participates in 95%+ of Miami Dolphins Special Teams plays in 2010?

In less than a week, the discussions over what team will pick Tim Tebow, and at what position in the draft, will be gone. We will know where Tebow will call his new home (where you will buy NFL tickets to go see him) and whether he was a first, second, or third round pick. No […]

If you are in the area, stop by! […]
The National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) requires that its contract advisors maintain professional liability insurance. The NFLPA even has a preffered company to handle such matters. The Canadian Football League Players Association (CFLPA) may soon be doing the same thing. The players’ association has sent out a survey to its licensed contract advisors to […]
Since the 1993 NFL season, the league has had been fortunate enough to maintain stable and successful labor relations, extending the CBA five consecutive times and avoiding a work stoppage since 1987, but will that streak end this year? NFL owners appear willing to lock out their players in 2011 if an impasse is reached […]
Anyone here getting an iPad tomorrow? I’d love to hear what you think of the device if you are an early purchaser. I never tied my hands to Apple in any of their products. Major League Baseball’s regular season is only a couple of days away. We still have one player in big league camp, […]
Some UFL Open Tryouts
There are more agents than there are players in the NFL. New entrants into the industry are lucky to represent a player with a chance of being selected between rounds 5-7. Many agents will represent players hoping that they will be signed as free-agents after the draft and get a chance to make it to […]
