Dan Werly, Tennessee Titans General Counsel and Conduct Detrimental Co-Creator, makes his triumphant return to the show (4:20 - 44:55) to discuss where he’s been for the last few years. He tries to answer the unanswerable question of how someone goes from private practice lawyer, to blogger, to podcast host, to sports lawyer, to General Counsel of both an MLS and NFL Franchise!!??? As Werly discusses, “networking” opens doors but persistence is needed to knock doors down. A masterclass in how to leverage contacts to find the right clients and career to match your personality and interests. Werly explains his dream role: running legal for an NFL franchise. And the big news… this podcast was created to expand Sports Law and we’re now taking another step in that direction. Today, we launch ConductDetrimental.com to provide a singular-focused Sports Law platform open to anyone and everyone that wants to contribute. Writing is how we got our start and remains a crucial step in your Sports Law portfolio to distinguish yourself in this niche. Our goal is that you’ll get your resume to stand out, foster more connections, and push your career closer to your passion. Sports Law is meant to be fun and we hope this site is an extension of the fun we have on the podcast and social media so that we can continue to grow Sports Law together. *** Dan Wallach (@WallachLegal) Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) Mike Lawson (@Mike_SonOf_Law) Stephanie Weissenburger (@SWeissenburger_) Tarun Sharma (@TKSharmaLaw) The Show (@ConDetrimental)
