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.

  • Hrizonhhighways February • 1951
    HRIZONHHIGHWAYS FEBRUARY • 1951 . THIRTY-FIVE CENTS , l /jJI I\fj Spring has a good press. The poets make much ado about birds, bees, flowers and the sprightliness of the season. They neglect such mundane subjects as spring house cleaning and overlook the melancholy fact that armies with evil intentions march when the snow melts. We hope our only concern is with flowers, bees and birds and things like that. As for spring house cleaning, just open the doors and let the house air out. Why joust with vacuum cleaners and mops when spring beckons? Spring does a good job of beckoning in the desert land. It is our pleasure to show you some panoramas of the desert and desert plateau country when nature's fashion calls for spring dress. We wish we could promise the most colorful spring ever but the effiorescence of spring depends on the rainfall. We have had a darned dry "dry spell" hereabouts, broken only by a good rain in late January. If the rains keep on, then we can predict a real pretty March, April and May, but who the heck is going to be silly enough to try to tell whether it'll rain. Anyway, we'll promise you grand weather. An Arizona spring can't be beat. The weather had better be perfect! Sometime this month a group of wonderfully agile and extremely well paid young men who answer to the roll call of the Cleveland Indians, and another group of even more agile and even better paid young men who form the New York Yankees baseball team arrive in Tucson and Phoenix for spring training, the latter to get ready to defend the World's Championship, the former to try to bring it to Cleveland.

  • YES Network Is Creating a Buzz in the Bronx
    YES Network Is Creating A Buzz in the Bronx 04.05.2019 If you're not a baseball fan, and more specifically, a New York Yankees' fan, you probably won't get it. But when YES Network created its spring campaign, "Buzz in the Bronx," it went all in on inside jokes to capture and delight fans. "If you get these jokes, then you are a part of our tribe," said John Ziegler, vice president, creative and marketing, YES Network. "We know that during the Yankees' season, the team dominates the conversation in this city. We know that there is buzz when they are playing, no matter how they are playing. We want to have our talent and our narrative align with what people are talking about." RELATED: YES Network Could Use a Bigger Broadcast Booth Set inside a fictional Bronx-based barbershop, The Yankees Clipper, Yankees talent gather with YES Network's squad of ace commentators to commune with head barber and Academy Award-nominated actor Chazz Palminteri, himself a longtime Yankees fan who heads up to the 300-level seats before every game to say hi to fans and autograph baseballs. "When he gets up to those seats he gets completely mugged in a great way," said Ziegler. "People are taking off their hats and having him sign them. He's a big Bronx guy." Barbershops have long been considered places where people get groomed, true, but also where they go to hang out with their neighborhood pals. The Yankees have a long-standing tradition, started by famed owner George Steinbrenner in 1973, of being clean cut.
