infielddad,
Don't agents have to be licensed?

TPM, I believe licensing of agents is a state by state issue. If I recall correctly, not all states require licensing for sports agents. It is a relatively recent requirement in CA.

With that said, I used the term license on a comparative basis with a lawyer/doctor. A lawyer in CA has to sit for a 2 1/2 day bar exam and then complete upwards of 36 units of continuing education every 3 years. With that level of oversight, there are more I would not have represent me than I would care to describe. To my knowledge, licensing of an agent is not based on demonstrated skills and knowledge. More related to filing an application and paying a fee.
