Kline was drafted in 2000 by the St. Louis Rams (now the Los Angeles Rams). He was an offensive lineman until 2002, when he left the NFL after sustaining several concussions. The boutique Los Angeles firm focuses almost exclusively on sports dealmaking — though it also works on capital raises and makes its own investments. The firm's website says it has also advised on deals for franchises like the Golden State Warriors, the Miami Heat, the Los Angeles Dodgers, Bologna FC, and the San Francisco Giants. Kline works alongside Sean Clemens and Edwin Draughan, who focus on sports mergers and acquisitions.
