Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up

My first official week as a 2L is over. Besides running around Wednesday night like a chicken with its head cut off, the week was a success. I was going crazy Wed. night, due to the fact that I hated my Child Support Enforcement Law class, dropped it, and needed to pick up something in its place.

I ended up adding Law & Economics, and after one class, it seems pretty interesting. Along with adding law school classes to my already large plate, I also have obligations concerning the Entertainment and Sports Law Society at UF. 

As President, I have been busy setting up our first general meeting, tabling in the courtyard, putting together Intramural sports teams, and organizing speakers. Never a dull moment in this life.  Here are some stories I missed over the week:

Football

• Clark Judge of CBSSports.com thinks that Tom Condon has a chance at being the next NFLPA Executive Director [Next union leader would be wise to learn from Upshaw's legacy].
• Matt Ryan leads the list in terms of guaranteed money [2008 NFL Draft - First-Round Selections - Contract Terms].
• The 33-day holdout is over [Harvey's deal with Jaguars could be worth $30 million].

Basketball

• New Carnival of the NBA with lots of pics of the Joker [Carnival of the NBA #59 : We're all Jokers].
• Another player jumps overseas...for his shoe deal [Jason Kidd Leaves Nike - Signs with Peak].
• Something just seems awfully wrong with looking at Marbury’s name sitting at No. 2 [NBA - Top Player Salaries For 2008-09 Season].

Olympics

• I would have put Lezak higher than No. 25 [Beijing Wrap-Up: The 25 Most Marketable Olympians].
• Michael Phelps will be making a cameo appearance on Entourage [My Michael Phelps All-Access Day].

Baseball

• True Religion is TOTALLY cooler than Seiko [Giants' Zito has new role: male fashion model].
