    An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures

    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • George Paynter Career

    George Paynter Career

    Paner Family Baseball Family The Professional Baseball Life & Times of George W. Paynter (Paner) (“the ball player”) So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past - The thing that connects us is love. 1 My Grandfather, George W. Paynter (Paner), was on his own from about age 13 (1884), after his Father died at age 31. 1800s generations spelling of Paner varied, but in Germanic Cincinnati they likely sounded alike. Throughout his pro baseball playing he was Paynter. He died when I was in the 4th Grade (1950). I only knew him from our one or two visits each year to see extended family in Cincinnati. I often heard - “ So you’re the Grandson of George Paner - the ball player”. Though his single game in the Major Leagues was 50+ years earlier “the ball player” title stuck due to his zest for playing more than 20 years, in and out of town, in very competitive pro and semi-pro leagues until age 42, and rooting for the beloved home town Reds all his life. Kevin Costner’s line in Field of Dreams - "I only knew him later, after life beat him down.", spoke of my Grandfather to me. George Paynter’s baseball and life story is compelling: • Strong semi-pro years, then briefly in minors at Lynchburg VA. (April, 1894) • “Cup of coffee” career single game in the National League (August 12, 1894) • Devastating Southern League game beaning ( August, 1896) • Patient in the South’s first Hospital for the Insane in Tuscaloosa, AL (1896) • Wife’s (my Grandmother) trip to gain his release and, teach him skills again • Losing George Jr at age 11, in a gruesome homicide (1905) • Playing another 15 years of very competitive pro / semi-pro baseball and loving the game a lifetime.

Last issue’s discussion of the large market/small market issue ran so long that I’ve got six months of news updates to present...so on with the show! MLB News Luxury tax bills paid. After posting a 79-83 record with the majors’ highest payroll, the Baltimore Orioles were hit with a $3,138,621 luxury tax bill for the 1998 season. Other taxpayers included the Red Sox ($2,184,734), Yankees ($684,390), Braves ($495,625) and Dodgers ($49,593). The tax threshold, originally expected to reach $55 million in 1998, actually leaped to $70,501,185, including $5,576,415 per team in benefits. This figure represents the midpoint between the fifth- and sixth-highest payrolls. The luxury tax rate falls from 35% to 34% in 1999, then disappears entirely in 2000. Owners go 9-2 in arbitration. Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera of the Yankees were the only players to win their arbitration hearings, although 51 of the 62 cases settled before a ruling.
