    Didn't see this posted but if so please lock it up. felt it was more appropriate in nba dish.

    how come I hear repeatedly on the forums that Buddy Baker only represents Carl?

    After reading this.. it seems BB has a huge ego problem and other agents don't like him either.

    if any of you follow the sportingnews link on that page about BB.. it will make you guys sick so i am not posting it. :D

    Singleton wasn't on the list the last time his website was up. That's why I didn't know he was one of Buddy's clients. At the time the only player on his site with an NBA contract was Carl.

    That website hasn't been active since like January and it was crappy (anyone on these boards could have produced better) before it went down.

    Didn't Darren used to be an up-n-coming intern at Kramerica way back when?

    Why? Because he stated his partner had an agency with a somewhat similar name to Buddy's new one? I didn't think he was harsh in the article and to be honest from what I know of Darren he's a pretty decent dude.

    This guy is a real... lol.

    He is completely insane or just a really optimistic person. If you want to become "elite", then you need to stop making your clients look like @ssholes and show other athletes that you can get things done. Threatening teams with FAKE offers or quotes like "If we asked for an offer, we would get an offer" makes you look like an Idiot. :mad:

    It goes a bit longer and reaches back a bit farther than you're familiar with.

    Please explain.
    I've been an avid reader and contributor to the Sportsagent blog since its inception and I'd really like to know the 411 or what's behind your statement on Darren?

    The Kelly Dwyer of Yahoo! Sports does not like me? Oh what have I done to warrant such disdain?
