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 […]

The Pirates Got Boras’ed

While I was frantically trying to find a class to substitute the terrible Child Support Enforcement Law that I dropped yesterday, I received an IM from Brian Foley of TheCollegeBaseballBlog.com.  I had read headlines about Pedro Alvarez yesterday, but had not checked the full story yet.  He wanted a quote, so this is what I […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up

I hope you are enjoying the NBA Finals; nothing like a classic match-up of Lakers vs. Celtics. You have Kobe vs. Pierce, a three-headed monster in Pierce, Garnett, and Jesus Shuttlesworth (Ray Allen), and who can forget the Shabbat Shalom favorite, Jordan Farmar?

Boras Loses A Couple Of Danks’

While I was sifting through the names of players drafted from the 5th to 25th round of this year’s MLB Amateur Draft, a few names stood out to me.

I hope that you got a good sleep last night. It is time to get a solid morning workout in and then get your draft binders out and find a comfortable place on the couch where you can enjoy the early rounds of the MLB Amateur Draft on TV and follow the remaining 40+ rounds […]

To think that the actions of a few attorney agents could be behind the indefinite suspension of Oklahoma State pitcher, Andy Oliver, makes me sick to my stomach. After speaking with various sources on the matter and receiving some interesting documents, I now provide you with a clear picture of the entire situation. Andrew Oliver […]
