  • The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act by Denis M
    It Wasn’t a Revolution, but it was Televised: The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act by Denis M. Crawford Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the History Program YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY May, 2017 It Wasn’t a Revolution, but it was Televised: The Crafting of the Sports Broadcasting Act Denis M. Crawford I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research. Signature: Denis M. Crawford, Student Date Approvals: Dr. David Simonelli, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. Donna DeBlasio, Committee Member Date Dr. Thomas Leary, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT This thesis aims to provide historical context for the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 which allowed professional sports teams to collectively negotiate television contracts and equally share in the revenues. According to Immanuel Wallerstein, the state crafting legislation to allow an anticompetitive business practice is an example of a basic contradiction of capitalism being reconciled. Researching the development of the SBA unveils two historically significant narratives. The first is the fact that antitrust legislator Emanuel Celler crafted the act with the intent of providing the National Football League competition although the act unintentionally aided the formation of a professional football monopoly. The other is that the act legalized a collectivist business practice in a time of anticommunist fervor and was written by a legislator with well-documented anticommunist credentials.

The rest of the guys will go. We look forward to the challenge of playing the Patriots. We know they’re a good football team. Everybody left at this point is a good football team. We also understand that it’s single elimination. We’re getting our work done here starting today, we’ll push it right through Saturday, and that’s where we’re at. If you’ve got questions, fire away.” Q: Some people are saying it’s going to be too cold for the crowd to be a factor, what’s your message to Chiefs fans? REID: “It’s never too cold for Chiefs fans. They’ll be there. That’s the great thing about the sea of red, they’re loud and they show up all the time. They’ll be ready for it.” Q: Where do things stand with Laurent Duvernay-Tardif this week? REID: “We’ll see. We’re just going to take it day-to-day. He’s going to practice, and we’ll just see how he does. He’s improved over the last few weeks. We’ll just see, we’ll see how it goes.” Q: Will he work with the ones? REID: “He’ll rotate in.” Q: What’s the plan for Eric Berry? REID: “He’ll practice too. Same thing, day-to-day.

  • Paige: Which One of Pat Bowlen's Seven Kids Will Take Over Broncos?
    Paige: Which one of Pat Bowlen's seven kids will take over Broncos? By Woody Paige The Denver Post July 27, 2014 When the Broncos open the regular season at home Sunday night, Sept. 7, owner Pat Bowlen, who always wanted to do everything the right way and be No. 1, should be honored appropriately. The circle of roads around the stadium should be renamed "The Pat Bowlen Way," and Broncos jersey No. 1 should be retired. Pat, who for five years has confronted the most difficult struggle of his life, leaves an indelible imprint on the Colorado sports landscape. And he leaves his family — and two of his closest friends — to carry on the Broncos' tradition of success. Joe Ellis and John Elway will administer the business and football operations, as they have for the past three years. Suddenly, though, there is emphasis on which progeny will emerge to serve the Bowlen Family Trust as Pat's successor. His seven children have been thrust into public spotlight and scrutiny. And it's very possible that ultimately all four major professional teams in Denver — the Broncos, the Rockies, the Nuggets and the Avalanche — will be owned and directed by sons and/or daughters. The heirs are apparent. Stan Kroenke still owns the Avs and the Nuggets. But, by NFL rule, he is supposed to divest his financial interest in both teams by the end of this year. However, Stan's son, Josh, is the president of the franchises and ultimately will become the official owner. His sister, Whitney Kroenke Burditt, lives in Los Angeles and has concentrated on being a stage actress, a film producer and a philanthropist.

  • Los Angeles Rams to Host Kansas City Chiefs in Mexico City in 2018
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 1/31/18 LOS ANGELES RAMS TO HOST KANSAS CITY CHIEFS IN MEXICO CITY IN 2018 Building off the tremendous success of the 2016 and 2017 games in Mexico, the NFL will return to Mexico City in 2018 when the Los Angeles Rams host the Kansas City Chiefs at Estadio Azteca, NFL Commissioner ROGER GOODELL announced today at his press conference in Minneapolis in advance of Super Bowl LII. The date and time of the game will be determined in conjunction with the release of the NFL schedule this spring. The game in Mexico is the fourth international game confirmed for 2018, adding to the three previously announced games in London, and a testament to the NFL’s commitment to growing the game beyond the borders of the United States. In November, the NFL and Mexico’s Ministry of Tourism announced an agreement to play three NFL regular- season games from 2019 to 2021. The previous agreement covered games from 2016 to 2018. “Over the past two seasons, we have seen the extraordinary passion that exists for NFL football in Mexico,” Goodell said. “We are excited for another memorable event at Estadio Azteca as the Los Angeles Rams and Kansas City Chiefs head to Mexico City in 2018.” The Rams and Chiefs will both play their first regular-season game in Mexico next season. The Chiefs played a preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys in Monterrey, Mexico on August 5, 1996, earning a 32-6 win over the Dallas Cowboys. “Southern California and Mexico share strong historic and cultural ties and this game will provide an opportunity to celebrate the special connection between these two regions,” said Rams Owner/Chairman E.
