Could Andre Smith’s suspension from the Sugar Bowl actually strengthen his draft stock? Improper dealings with an agent really does not speak much of an athlete’s character. It definitely reflects poorly on the agent who should know better than to confront a potential client before the college season is over, but it is not like [...]
Simon Fuller is mostly known for being the man behind the most successful show in the United States, American Idol. His company, 19 Entertainment, expanded from being mostly an Entertainment based company, with several media properties and representing various acting talents, to the sports spectrum once it teamed up with CAA in representing David Beckham. [...]
Yardbarker has plenty of big name professional athletes blogging on its platform, but Rulon Davis has broken ground by becoming the first college football blogger in the yard. Rulon is currently enjoying some down time in Texas before we fly him out to Florida to begin his training later this week. He just wrote his [...]
Welcome to 2009. I am real upbeat and excited about what this year has in store. I truly believe that 2009 is going to be a special year for me and Dynasty. Went to the Orange Bowl last night…it was much colder than I thought it would be. Going to the National Championship game next [...]

Continuing my excellent relationship with my beautiful girlfriend.
Rulon Davis getting drafted by a team that not only appreciates his value, but takes advantage of his strengths.

On October 9, I suggested that we bring back ARPA, an organization that once served some worthy purposes in strengthening the sports agent profession. ARPA stands for Association of Representatives of Professional Athletes, and was created in 1978 as a vehicle to introduce self-regulation into the profession. After publishing the post, I received tons of [...]

Since the beginning of this blog, we have looked at a couple of potential collusion claims against the MLB. First, Jason Wulterkens explored the possibility that owners were colluding to hold down A-Rod’s contract and share information about their general free agent plans. That was Winter of 2007. But most baseball fans are more aware [...]
You are one of the best college football players at your position and practically guaranteed to be one of the top five overall picks in the upcoming NFL Draft (in fact, many have you slotted to be the first selection in the whole shebang). The last thing you want to do is take any action [...]
The New York Times is also taking note of Lonnie Cooper’s unfortunate start to the 2008/09 NBA season. As I previously mentioned, all six NBA coaches fired so far this year are Career Sports & Entertainment clients. Not exactly something you want to deal with around the Holidays, but Lonnie knows that this business cares [...]
Shawn Zobel is a young man who saw an opportunity and took advantage of it. There are 117 days left until the 2009 NFL Draft, and Zobel is already hard at work compiling information on all of the college seniors and eligible juniors that will be declaring early. He also has a nice interview up [...]
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and I hope everyone enjoys their New Year’s Eve as we say goodbye to 2008 and welcome in 2009. 2008 was a huge year for me. Early on, I had to decide what kind of direction Dynasty was going to take. Originally a joint-venture, I bought out my partner in February. [...]

And make sure to keep an eye on Rulon Davis. I recently wrote a short piece for ESPN on the Cal senior. The guy has tons of NFL potential.
We are right in the heat of Hannukah and just a couple of days before my Christian brothers enjoy their special day. As a side note, I love Christmas. If you want to find a Jew on Christmas, hit up your local movie theater or call a Chinese restaurant and ask for the addresses of [...]
