Are you ready for some football?!?!?! For realz!

It's over, it's over. The 136 day lockout is finito! Once again, it holds true that football does not really start until end of July! However, just as I predicted it was one hell of a roller-coaster ride to get to this point, from the Owners' vote last Thursday (gratuitous link due to this very bLawg getting cited) to today, but I do not think it is premature to say that the lockout is over and there should be football in the near future!

Happy Lockoutx2 Day! And an introduction...

So here I am sitting in Bar Review class, listening to a lecture on how to write an essay on criminal law and criminal procedure. I am about ready to eat the poisoned fruit from the poisonous tree and call it quits. I have not taken a criminal law class or other related class in law school since 1L year. All of my chosen classes were related to sports and entertainment law; intellectual property, and dispute resolution. Unfortunately for me, none of the classes are tested on the California Bar. To maintain my interest in these subject areas I decided to start this blog to discuss the legal intricacies and going-on in this trying time of labor uncertainty in professional sports! Thus, welcome to Lockout Lowdown--a blog dedicated to contemporary labor law issues in professional sports leagues.
