In my previous post, I pointed out that a great showing at a tennis Grand Slam can set you up for the rest of the year. In Jelena Dokic‘s case, her Quarter Final showing at the Australian Open may well lead to her an assortment of riches. In 2002, Jelena was at the top of […]

As more and more agencies merge into larger conglomerates […]
While Augusta is my favorite major to watch, and while I consider the U.S. Open to be the toughest major to actually win, there is something about The British Open that makes it the most special of the four. Maybe it’s because it is golf’s oldest championship. Maybe it’s because it’s fun to wake up […]
I had the honor of appearing on two radio shows this week. Maybe someday I will host my own down here in South Florida. Possibly even a TV gig? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Anyway, another exciting week has passed by. Lots of big pending news for the Dynasty family. One thing I can […]
