Congrats to Kevin Youkilis, an all-star Jewish baseball player, for his recent marriage to Enza Sambataro, a non-Jew. Enza is CEO of Hits for Kids, Youklilis’ charitable foundation. Big week in the press for Dynasty. First a feature on YOUNG MONEY magazine, then the Independent Florida Alligator, and finally a link back to the YOUNG MONEY piece in Sports Illustrated. Press is nice, but it’s back to business as usual, growing the right ways and doing our best for our current clients. Here are some links I missed this past week:
Baseball
- Scott Boras time? Give me a break [Like it or not, Scott Boras is baseball's Mr. November].
- The Beverly Hills Sports Council India project [Pitchers from India struggle in front of major league scouts].
- Don’t forget about the small market teams [Francisco Rodriguez's agent ready to open negotiations].
Basketball
- T-Mac’s 2007 visit to Darfur was documented and may soon appear on TV [Film follows Darfur tour].
- Gotta say I like this format of the Carnival [Carnival of the NBA #61]
Football
- The kind of athlete any agent would love to represent [Nov. 22 will be busy for FSU star].
- Here is to hoping that Larry Johnson regains his composure and once again becomes a force in the NFL [Johnson wrestles his biggest foe: himself].
One Comment
For those interested in following the story of the two, young Indian men looking to make it to the MLB, here’s a link to their blog. My understanding is that Rinku and Dinesh were the winner and first runner up, respectively, of a contest in their home country of India, and have come to America to showcase their talents… Do they stand a legitimate shot at getting signed?
