Relocating Teams and Expanding Leagues in Professional Sports by Frank P. Jozsa,John J. Guthrie Jr. Pdf

In the business of professional league sports, market conditions are the key determinate of the financial success or failure of a team. In the last few years, major league sports has experienced both growth into new markets and relocations of existing teams. Owners and the leagues use demographics, economic data, and governmental support to decide on where and when to expand and relocate. This book examines the sports business from 1950 through 2000. Historical demographic, economic, and team-related data provide the context. The authors apply metropolitan area statistics such as population growth and income, game attendance, and estimated market values to examine the business decisions made by individual teams in professional baseball, football, and basketball. The book looks at specific teams in terms of their long-term viability as a franchise and ranks their performances in economic and business terms. It also examines the related issues of taxpayer subsidies for new venues and the economic impact of professional sports on cities and regions. The book is a fascinating and comprehensive look at the business of sports and its place in American society, business, and economics.

The Dirty College Game by Al Figone Pdf

Commercial aspects of college football and basketball during the mid- to late 20th century were dominated by a few "get rich quick" schools. Though the NCAA was responsible for controlling such facets of college sports, the organization was unwilling and unable to control the excesses of the few who opposed the majority opinion. The result was a period of corruption, rules violations, unnecessary injuries and overspending. These events led to the formation of larger conferences, richer bowl games and rules intended to preserve the "money-making" value of college football and basketball. This book explores gambling, academic fraud, illegal booster activity and the single-minded pursuit of television contracts in college sports, as well as the NCAA's involvement--or lack thereof--in such cases.

Aquiles... a curious straight by Gonzalo Narvreón Pdf

Aquiles is an upper-middle-class man in his mid-40s. He shares his days with Marina, his wife, deeply in love and enjoys full sexuality devoid of prejudices. He has a very active routine between the gym, work, and sports, sharing his leisure time with his three childhood friends and families. His life goes on pleasantly and away from any conflict that may disturb him. However, an unexpected situation will provoke a shockwave in his structure and arouse his curiosity, leading him to travel unknown walking trails and discover relationships beyond those established by social doctrines and by the cultural mandates within which he moves. From that moment on, Aquiles will begin to sharpen his attention to situations that had gone unnoticed until then. Even with the qualms imposed by his heterosexual male structure, he will try to open his head to understand that nothing is what it seems and that maybe there is another type of pleasure that, until now, he has never experienced or imagined. In this new novel, narrated with his characteristic writing style, Gonzalo Narvreón keeps us trapped in reading a text full of dialogues and descriptions of physical spaces and sensations, making the reader the story’s protagonist. Unlike the explicit content on which the “Stories of a married man” saga focuses, in this novel, Gonzalo Narvreón immerses himself in Aquiles’ daily life and in the vision that the protagonist has of his relationships with his environment, from his heterosexuality.
