HARVARD JSEL VOLUME 1, NUMBER 1 – SPRING 2010 Preface Peter A. Carfagna* and Paul C. Weiler† We cordially welcome readers to the first volume of the Harvard Journal of Sports and Entertainment Law. It is with great pride that we have worked with students of the Harvard Law School to create this journal, and, in the process, contribute to the broader debates about law and the sports and entertainment industries. As our years at the Harvard Law School have shown us, there is a high degree of enthusiasm for these subjects, and a realization among students and faculty that the sports and entertainment fields are rich topics, worthy of consideration in an academic journal. The Harvard Law School has offered basic courses in sports and entertainment law for several years. General courses such as antitrust, international trade, labor, tort, copyright, and trademark law augmented these offerings. Over the years, courses have been given relating to the marketing and economics of sports and entertainment, both at the Law School and at other schools across Harvard University. Recently, a deeper interest in the fields has emerged, leading to two additional courses: “Representing the Professional Athlete” and “Advanced Contract Drafting.” Students have also been involved for a long time in sports and entertainment law outside the classroom. Since the early 1980s, the Harvard Law School has had a Committee on Sports and Entertainment Law. The Committee has been instrumental in engaging the student body on these topics, holding symposia, bringing in alumni who have worked in the sports and entertainment fields, and advising students on their career choices. Beginning in 2007, the Sports Law Clinic offered students another way to get involved in the field. The program has placed students in over thirty clinical placements within the head offices of various teams in the three major sports leagues, and with many other professional and amateur sports organizations. On the * Visiting Lecturer on Sports Law, Harvard Law School. † Henry J. Friendly Professor of Law, Emeritus, Harvard Law School.

Students over the years have taken advantage of these opportunities to move on to careers in the sports and entertainment industries. Whether as in-house counsel, members of law firms, professors, or even general managers of teams, these former students have utilized the skills honed at the Harvard Law School to advance in these industries and to have an impact on the evolution of sports and entertainment law. Notably, some Harvard Law School students have gone on to become professors of sports law, including one of the authors of an article in this inaugural issue, Michael McCann, LLM ’05. With all the contributions that have been made by past students of the Harvard Law School, it is wonderful to see that current students share the same passion and that this has culminated in the creation of the Harvard Journal of Sports and Entertainment Law. And a timely creation it is. At this moment, professional sports leagues are dealing with antitrust scrutiny of a kind that they have not faced in almost two decades, while up-and-coming sports are facing issues of regulation and legitimacy. The entertainment industry must cope with ever-shorter ratings cycles, while also trying to navigate the waters of what is and what is not acceptable in terms of content. But this is not all. The entertainment industry also faces rapid changes in technology, altering not only consumption of songs, movies, and books, but also raises concerns about authorship and intellectual property. In both industries, today’s legal concerns impact both company and consumer alike. The Harvard Journal of Sports and Entertainment Law will contribute to the debate and evolution of these concerns. It will examine elements of these issues today and into the future, tracking how the sports

ARTICLES It’s Not About the Money: THE ROLE OF PREFERENCES, COGNITIVE BIASES, AND HEURISTICS AMONG PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES Michael A. McCann† I. INTRODUCTION Professional athletes are often regarded as selfish, greedy, and out-of-touch with regular people. They hire agents who are vilified for negotiating employment contracts that occasionally yield compensation in excess of national gross domestic products.1 Professional athletes are thus commonly assumed to most value economic remuneration, rather than the “love of the game” or some other intangible, romanticized inclination. Lending credibility to this intuition is the rational actor model; a law and economic precept which presupposes that when individuals are presented with a set of choices, they rationally weigh costs and benefits, and select the course of † Assistant Professor of Law, Mississippi College School of Law; LL.M., Harvard Law School; J.D., University of Virginia School of Law; B.A., Georgetown University.

I will argue that Mandingo is an example of a racial archetype. Racial archetypes are specific images of a long-standing stereotypes. Mandingo is one such archetype. Mandingo conjures up an entire history of the rhetoric of miscegenation. For some it is the excitement of the big black cock (BBC) and crossing the color line, but for most blacks it invokes images of lynching, slavery, and police brutality brought on by the fear of black men while at the same time trafficking in a prurient landscape of American racial and sexual relations. Whether through words, pictures or movies, the Mandingo has become a dominant archetype in the pantheon of the African American experience. Charting the Mandingo emergence and articulation is critical project to discern how these rhetorical markers are part of a larger mythic narrative.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

    KINNEY ZALESNE 2008 TCG National Conference June 12, 2008 “microtrends: the small forces behind tomorrow’s big changes” Kinney Zalesne SUSAN BOOTH My job is to introduce our first speaker and before I do, I want to let you know that after she’s done speaking, we are going to have about fifteen minutes for some Q&A, so store away those questions. She would be more than happy to respond to them after her remarks. It is a great pleasure to kick off our time together with Kinney Zalesne. She is the co-author, with Mark Penn, of Microtrends: The Small Forces Behind Tomorrow’s Big Changes. Kinney Zalesne is an authority on small communities and social entrepreneurship. With Mr. Penn, she worked on the 1996 Clinton/Gore election campaign and provided strategy for Senator Clinton’s presidential bid. She was a White House fellow in Al Gore’s office, focusing on domestic policy and education technology. She worked as counsel to attorney general Janet Reno in the mid-90’s. And here’s what’s cool: she left all of that to become president of College Summit, a not-for-profit that helps low-income school districts send kids to college. She’s a graduate of both Yale University and Harvard Law School and it’s my delight to welcome to the stage Kinney Zelesne. [Applause] KINNEY ZALESNE Thank you very much Susan and Kent and Teresa and all of you for having me here. What Susan didn’t tell you about my biography is really what’s most important to me is that in Junior High, I was quite the actress.

  • Just 1% the Power of Microtrends by Mark Penn & E. Kinney Zalesne
    Just 1% The Power of Microtrends By Mark Penn & E. Kinney Zalesne Info NEXT An Introduction to Microtrends In 1960, Volkswagen shook up the car world with a full-page ad containing just two words: THINK SMALL. It was revolutionary—a call for the shrinking of perspective in an era when success was all about gain, even when you were just driving down the street. America never quite got used to small when it came to cars. But ask two-thirds of America, and they’ll tell you they work for small business. We yearn for the lifestyles of small-town America. Many of the biggest movements in America today are small—hidden, for just a few to see. Microtrends is based on the idea that the most powerful forces in our society are the emerging, counter-intuitive trends shaping tomorrow right before us. With so much focus on poverty as the cause of terrorism, it is hard to see that it is richer, educated terrorists who have been behind many of the attacks. With so much attention to big, organized religion, it is hard to see that it is newer, small sects that are the fastest-growing. But small choices have redefined society. We used to live in the “Ford economy,” where workers created one black car, over and over, for thousands of consumers. Now we live in the “Starbucks economy,” where workers create thousands of different cups of coffee, for individual customers. That explosion of choice has, in turn, created hundreds of small, intense communities defining themselves in new ways.
