Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (4/29/2011)

This has to be the least hyped NFL Draft in quite some time.  There is more focus surrounding what is going down in the courtroom in Minnesota than what is transpiring in New York City.  Our thoughts and prayers to everyone affected by the terrible weather in the Southeast.  Thank G-d Passover is done.  I […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (4/1/2011)

I am going on a year long trip around the world and will not be posting any updates to this site until 4/1/2012.  April Fools?  It feels good to have baseball again.  It is too bad that the headlines will continue to revolve around the NFL/NFLPA labor dispute.  I picked one Final Four team correctly […]

I am at Florida International Law School today speaking at the school’s first Sports Law Symposium.  Later today, I will be boarding a cruise to the Bahamas for a much needed weekend of relaxation.  Don’t be surprised if the posting at the beginning of next week is a little on the light side.

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (2/11/2011)

Amazing that I arrive in New Orleans when the city happens to be the coldest it has been this entire Winter.  Oh well.  At least The Big Easy has been a great time thus far, and I have really enjoyed serving as a arbitrator at the Tulane Law Baseball Arbitration Competition.  Many thanks to everybody […]

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up (1/14/2011)

I heard that two days ago Florida was the only state in the United States to not have fresh snow on the ground.  I sure hope Florida schools are selling that to their recruits.  Cancelling school for Snow Days is fun, but it’s not fun when in slightly better conditions you have to trudge through […]
