Delighted to report, with my inaugural tweet, another great result achieved for an athlete by Morgan Sports Law. Have a feeling this will be something of a regular occurrence! #sport #sports #law #sportslaw #equestrian

The postponement of the Tokyo Olympic Games has afforded the IOC an opportunity to 'demonstrate' that it is not out of touch; whether it will seize it remains to be seen. I consider the recent history of athlete protest in the context of current events in this article.

Incisive article on the longtime IOC president by Dave Zirin and Jules Boykoff. Coincidentally I considered whether IOC Charter Rule 50 and the accompanying Guidance which prohibits athlete demonstrations, is still tenable, earlier this month here: bit.ly/2Nj6rgD

Just a snippet of the incredibly insightful conversation that Tom Seamer and I had with @tibartoletta and Brendan Schwab on Rule 50 of the Olympic Charter. Look out for the full podcast on Morgan Sports Law's page in the coming days. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on it!

It’s here! Part 1 of the Morgan Sports Law Play On Podcast on Rule 50 of the Olympic Charter featuring some very special guests. Listen, rate and review.

Wow.

This won't just be about today. It's now happened--NBA players have boycotted games to take a stand. Now that it's happened, it could happen again. In the NBA. Other leagues. College. The Olympics. Without uttering one word, athletes are more empowered now than they were before.

Part 2 of the fascinating discussion Tom Seamer and I had with @tibartoletta and Brendan Schwab on athlete protests which, again and unfortunately in the context of yet another incident, seems rather prescient. Please listen, review, share and let us know your thoughts.
