An honest sports agent always puts the client above himself. Nevertheless, Arliss Michaels still manages a lucrative career, negotiating big contracts and rubbing shoulders with superstar athletes, and often becoming embroiled in their messy personal lives. He's competitive, never to be underestimated, and always looking to expand the roster.

A woman in the man's world of sports, Arliss's personal assistant Rita is gutsy, devoted and whip-smart. She goes beyond the call of duty, personally and professionally, and always maintains high standards.

Ex-football star Kirby Carlisle is forging a new career as a sports agent, albeit with a serious gambling addiction. He isn't always as strategic as Arliss, but the junior partner's blunt thinking can come in handle.  

It's all about the money, and Stanley Babson makes sure the cash keeps flowing to Arliss Michaels Management. As the firm's pragmatic financial advisor, Stanley is the voice of reason in the conference room, and begrudging co-conspirator to Arliss's screwball schemes.
