Apparently, for the first time since Forbes started keeping track, NFL teams have lost value. The Cowboys may still be worth about $1.8 billion, but this is just one more example of how tough this economy is.

One of the things I find interesting is how “sports and entertainment law” really isn’t any one [...]

I remember having a hard time finding relevance in my first-year courses. As some of our readers begin their first year of law school in a few days or weeks, I thought I’d share a little post-grad musing.

It is extremely difficult trying to balance a state budget at a time when the country as a whole is going through some of its most difficult economic hurdles in recent history.
