The New York Yankees love the Jews. I am down in South Florida for the weekend. It is nice to see part of my family…a five hour drive is not the worst thing in the world. I am turning in a paper for my Business Organizations class on Monday. The topic: Duties of Sports Agents to Athletes and Statutory Regulation Thereof. Lots of SPARTA and UAAA discussion involved. I will post the paper online sometime in the near future. Our young baseball players have started short season ball, and some of our more experienced guys continue to perform well. We are still advising some players who were drafted. Time to enjoy my family and dog, Mushu. Here are some stories I missed over the past week:
