SI.com Column on NFL Pat Downs and Sheehan v. 49ers

I have a new column on Sports Illustrated.com entitled "Questioning Legality of Pat Downs." In addition to examining pat downs in general, it looks at Sheehan v. The San Francisco 49ers, a pat down case that will soon be heard by the California Supreme Court.

I had the good fortune of interviewing a number of experts for this piece, including NFL VP of security Milton Ahlerich, two ACLU lawyers (Ann Brick and Rebecca Harrison Steele) working on pat down litigation, Princeton University psychology professor Emily Pronin, and Sports Law Blog's own Luis Cassiano Neves, an expert in international sports law.

I hope you have a chance to read the piece.
