Good post again, Scott.

It may be tough to envision but the personal side of life will work itself out. I was struck by one of Jack Bechta’s video blog over at National Football Post in which he pointed out that most successful sports agents are unmarried.

As a married father who is a full-time attorney and also a sports agent, that concerned me. But in talking to more sports agents, I have found that Bechta’s statement does not necessarily ring true. You CAN make it work, and if family is important, you WILL make it work.

Hey Scott,

Nice article that you wrote here. I’m currently a Sports Management major in college and I think it’s nice to see what it is like “behind the scenes”. It helps me understand better, the difficulties that come along with starting a career as a sports agent. One way I’ve learned to deal with stress has been to handle one thing at a time and that will help slowly diminish my stress level. I hope everything works out for you situation and I look forward to reading more of your articles. Good job!

Garen Koutoujian.

Darren,

Thanks for your posts. They are always interesting to me, especially as a 3L looking to follow a similar path as yourself. The personal details were a nice touch this week as they show the human aspect of things. I am in a similar boat as my fiance is a 2L about 5 hours from me in NYC where I am working for the semester. Although the family issues you face are something I cannot speak to, balancing two professionals’ lives is. I commend you for handling it so well as I am sure it is tough on both.

Looking forward to future posts. Best.
