League requiring G.M.’s to log all calls with agents
Posted by Mike Florio on March 14, 2011, 8:57 AM EDT
During the lockout, coaches aren’t allowed to talk to current players. The supposed penalty is termination for cause. (We’re sure the Pats will do that if they catch Bill Belichick in a Skype session with Tom Brady.)
General Managers face a far less bright line, given that they need to be talking to agents about potential draft picks. Moreover, some G.M.’s are represented by agents who represent players.
In an effort to ensure that conversations don’t drift to matters relating to current players, General Managers are required to keep a log of every call with an agent, according to Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com. Topics are limited to the incoming draft picks and personal business involving the G.M. and his agent.
