Sports Law Careers

[NYCboy]

What is the name of your state? New York

What are some careers that involve sports law? I'm only a sophomore in high school but my parents want me to start looking at what I want to do. I'm interested in sports so I know I'll like sports law. But what types of careers are there in sports law that you'd have to get a master's degree in? What do they pay? Are there a lot of offices in Manhattan?

I'm a quiet kid so what kind of careers would be good for quieter kids? A lawyer has to talk a lot in front of a lot of people so I don't think I could do that.

Thanks.

Do you mean like a referee?

Judging from your advice to other people, I think you would be a great lawyer, but 16 is just too young to decide such an important decision.

Take my advice, and I'm sure many others would agree;
Don't knock up any girls until after you've graduated college.
Tell your folks that you want to be a marine biologist, when in reality you are still undecided. That'll keep them happy and you'll still have plenty of time to decide what you really want to do with your life. Heck, I can barely remember what I wanted to be when I was 16, and I wouldn't want to be stuck with the consequences of that decision now.
After all, the first two years of college are pretty much the same for everyone, regardless of major.

Yup. He'll be in jail.

You were on a mini golf course so he shouldn't have been swinging like it was a huge, pro golf course. But his friend should not have ran onto the course. This would be a tough one for the jury if it goes to court.

Take it to court. You'll win.

Well, in my school, we sign papers about that stuff or something like that. Did the school have everybody do stretches before lifting? If they didn't, I'd say the school should pay.

I'm only a sophomore but my dad teaches me a lot about this. I know you wouldn't take a teenager's advice but I say sue them. Accident my ass. You'd have to be a retard to be walking alongside someone and "accidentally" sticking your foot in front of the wheels. What is the kid, a clown? Unless the kid wears canoes instead of shoes, it was on purpose.

I did. I found out a lot but not enough. I think I might a lawyer. I'm beginning to get out of that shyness and am more outgoing now. I thought about it and talked to my parents and they think I would be a good lawyer.

Thanks for the advice. That really helped a lot. I agree that I'm too young but my parents keep bugging me about it. They won so I'm looking around now. I think being a lawyer would be fun though.

Or you could tell them you want to panhandle quarters at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, or that you want to be the guy who pushes broken down cars out of the lincoln tunnel. My favorite one is when i quireied (yes I know I spelled that wrong) my 4 year old son and he told me he wanted to be the ice cream truck driver.

The legal proffesion offers many opportunities that don't require public speaking (or even a law degree for that matter) but it would be a good idea to get over it.

Like Happy Husband said about the first two years of college being the same for everyone. It is true and extra true for law students. You won't be looking at choosing a speciatly for about 10 more years.

Be a kid for now

If everyone was held to the career decisions they made when they were 4 years old,
it would be a strange world with so many firemen, policemen, and ballerina princesses!
