Sign Here, Dummy!
from Triple A Ball 'N Play Podcast Hosted by Mike and Lee
Quick cash, lifetime rights? Hard pass. Lee (tax attorney athlete agent) and Michael (bar-eligible athlete agent) break down the NIL and endorsement clauses that quietly trap athletes—then give you a simple playbook to negotiate better terms or walk away. We translate the legalese, explain what’s fair, and show you how to keep your name, image, and future from getting signed away. What you’ll learn: • The “dirty five” clauses: exclusivity, perpetual usage, morality, assignment, auto-renewals• Money math: payment schedules, clawbacks/chargebacks, bonuses, taxes, and late-fee leverage• Deliverables & approvals: scope, timelines, revisions, kill fees, content ownership• Termination that protects you: cure periods, outs for non-payment, brand misconduct• Red-flag spotting in 60 seconds + a one-page deal checklist Perfect for high-school and college athletes (and parents/coaches) who want paid deals without permanent strings.
