Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-up (11/14/2014)

Had a fantastic time in New York last weekend.  Spent all day Sunday chowing down on Mark Schlereth’s delicious creations while watching football at DIRECTV’s FantasyZone in Soho.  Life could have been worse for those few hours.  Today, I am off to Raleigh, North Carolina and will get to experience UNC for the first time […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-up (11/7/2014)

Another week, another trip.  This Saturday I am off to New York City.  I hear that Sidebar is the spot to go to watch the Florida Gators game at night, so if you are in town you should feel free to stop by and watch the team that dominated Georgia last week.  I am also […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-up (9/19/2014)

Ever remember a crazier week for the NFL?  People are calling for Roger Goodell’s head, players are getting held out of games and practice but still earning paychecks and every day it seems like there’s a new domestic violence announcement.  After a terrible Thursday night game, can’t wait for Sunday to roll along.  And there’s […]

On To The Next One: Jurickson Profar

According to CBS Baseball Insider, Jon Heyman, Texas Rangers shortstop Jurickson Profar has hired veteran sports agent Scott Boras to represent him.  Pro Star Management previously represented the 21-year-old Profar. Profar struggled during the 2013 season, batting only .234/.308/.336 in 324 plate appearances.  Right shoulder issues and a recent Grade ‘A’ arm strain have him […]

I am back in the town where a lot of magic went down — Gainesville, Florida.  Today marks the return of the UF Sports Law Symposium, where I will be moderating one panel and also serving as a Keynote Speaker.  It is a joy to return to the town where I spent 7 amazing years […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-up (3/28/2014)

It’s Great To Be A Florida Gator.  I was in Gainesville the last time the Gators men’s basketball team won a couple of championships, and I remember the joy I felt watching that team destroy the competition.  It may be more gratifying watching this year’s team, albeit many miles away, which is undoubtedly less talented […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-up (11/8/2013)

I’m in Jamaica with very little internet access, but a lot of sunshine.  In fact, I will be somewhat surprised if this wrap-up even gets published.  As they say here in Montego Bay, “No problems; ya mon!”  Anyway, the Jonathan Martin/Richie Incognito hoopla seems to be getting more interesting by the day.  I see that […]
