    Corporate Social Responsibility in Professional Sports: An Analysis of the NBA, NFL, and MLB Richard A. McGowan, S.J. John F. Mahon Boston College University of Maine Chestnut Hill, MA, USA Orono, Maine, USA [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an area of organizational study with the potential to dramatically change lives and improve communities across the globe. CSR is a topic with extensive research in regards to traditional corporations; yet, little has been conducted in relation to the professional sports industry. Although most researchers and professionals have accepted CSR has a necessary component in evaluating a firm‟s performance, there is a great deal of variation in how it should be applied and by whom. Professional sports franchises are particularly interesting, because unlike most corporations, their financial success depends almost entirely on community support for the team. This paper employs a mixed-methods approach for examining CSR through the lens of the professional sports industry. The study explores how three professional sports leagues, the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Football Association (NFL), and Major League Baseball (MLB), engage in CSR activities and evaluates the factors that influence their involvement. Quantitative statistical analysis will include and qualitative interviews, polls, and surveys are the basis for the conclusions drawn. Some of the hypotheses that will be tested include: Main Research Question/Focus: How do sports franchises

  • The Economic Framework for Assessing Comcast's Exclusionary Conduct
    -77- FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION A. The Economic Framework for Assessing Comcast's Exclusionary Conduct 122. Antitrust economics considers exclusionary conduct to be anticompetitive if it impairs a rival's efficiency or its ability to impose price discipline. Such conduct can occur by raising a rival's costs, by degrading a rival's quality of service,256 or by depriving rivals of economies of scale.257 Anticompetitive effects may be realized regardless of whether the rival is driven out of the market entirely;258 they require that the rival faces increasing marginal costs or large upfront costs or both. If the conduct forces the rival to operate on a higher portion of its marginal cost curve, then such conduct would achieve partial foreclosure, and the rival would not be able to constrain prices as effectively. In the extreme case, when the conduct prevents the rival from covering its average variable costs, the conduct would induce exit and thereby achieve complete foreclosure. 123. Exclusionary strategies can take several forms, and such strategies can be used to extend monopoly power from one market into another, or to maintain monopoly power in a !pven market. When the markets in question are vertically aligned, exclusionary conduct is referred to as "vertical restraints," and the effect of such conduct is called "vertical foreclosure.',259 Because regional sports programming, national sports programming, local broadcast affiliates, and online programming are inputs in the production process of video 256. See Steven C. Salop & David T. Scheffman, Cost-Raising Strategies, 36 J. IND. ECON. 19 (1987). 257. See, e.g., Richard A Posner, Vertical Restraints and Antitrust Policy, 72 U.

Oak Street, Suite 4000 Fort Collins, CO 80521 Dear Mr. Brown: As you know, Spectra Venue Management (formerly known as Global Spectrum) has successfully operated the Budweiser Events Center (BEC) since it first opened for business in 2003. Prior to the grand opening, Spectra served as the County’s pre-opening operational consultant, working with the architectural and construction teams to ensure that, when completed, the venue would meet all of the County’s goals and objectives with respect to event programming, operational efficiency, bottom-line financial performance, and overall impact on The Ranch and Larimer County economy. We are now excited to respond to the County’s RFI #I19-04 Development & Partnership Opportunities at The Ranch Events Complex – Proposed Hotel, Sports, and Event Facilities, as we are extremely eager to grow our partnership and remain involved in the development of the Master Plan. SPECTRA’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS AT THE BEC During our more than 15-year tenure as the manager of the BEC, we have become integral and highly respected members of the Larimer County community. Our performance at the BEC has been widely recognized and praised over the years, which is due to some of the following accomplishments: • We have averaged over 200 events at the BEC each year.
