The first collective act of professional basketball players under the NBPA was a threat to strike just before the 1964 NBA All-Star Game. Eventually, they had achieved to get the pension plan that they hoped for many years. Larry Fleisher, the general counsel of the NBPA, and Oscar Robertson, the president of the NBPA, were determined to abolish the reserve clause in basketball. The reserve clause restrained the free movement of professional athletes for many years, and NBA players were the ones who established staunch struggle against it, in various ways, including litigation.

Beaty, and Ed McPherson, brothers one and all Prologue THE DEFENDER’S EYES grow wide, as they well should. He’s about to face the kind of kinesthetic brilliance that first motivated humans to invent slow- motion technology—something, anything, that would allow them to review exactly what happens when movement plays tricks on the mind. The setting is painfully familiar. Something in the offensive structure has broken down at the other end of the floor, igniting a fast break. The entire defense is retreating. The defender has sprinted back down the floor and, as he turns, he sees the blur. The dark form in red has the ball, dribbling and winding his way through the chaos at great speed. He crosses the ball over from right to left and draws it up in two hands just off his left hip in midstride. At this exact moment, the tongue falls out of his face. Sometimes, it shows just slightly between the teeth, but at this moment, the full tongue drops grotesquely, like some comic doll silently mocking the defender.

  • Fcc Shot Clocks 10, 9, 8… – What Are They Good For? Maybe a Federal Lawsuit
    FCC SHOT CLOCKS 10, 9, 8… – WHAT ARE THEY GOOD FOR? MAYBE A FEDERAL LAWSUIT By: Thomas A. Shepardson, Esq. Shot clocks are intended to spur action on the part of opposing entities. For example, the National Basketball Association has the 24-second shot clock, and college basketball opted for a shot clock following the University of North Carolina’s four-corners “offense”. Even in chess, players must stop the clock after they make a move. The Federal Communications Commission took this to heart and applied the shot clock concept to approval of personal wireless facilities, thereby turning timeframes for municipal review and approval or disapproval of applications to deploy wireless facilities into a possible federal claim, if not met. In general, Section 332(c)(7) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (“Telecommunications Act”) preserves state and local authority over zoning and land use decisions for personal wireless service facilities, but sets forth specific limitations on that authority.1 Specifically, a state or local government may not unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally equivalent services; may not regulate in a manner that prohibits or has the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services; and must make any denial of an application in writing, supported by substantial evidence in a written record.2 The Act also preempts local decisions premised directly or indirectly on the environmental effects of radio frequency (“RF”) emissions, assuming that the provider is in compliance with the Federal Communication Commission (“FCC”)’s RF rules.3 As further discussed below, however, the primary mechanism affecting state and local authority over personal wireless service facilities is through the shot clock framework.
