Drawing on a primary sample of two hundred and one reported judicial decisions canvassing the breadth of recognised legal categories, and an allied range fight lore supporting, opposing or critically reviewing the sport's development since the beginning of the nineteenth century, discernible evolutionary trends in Western law, language and modern sport are identified.

  • A's News Clips, Friday the 13Th, August, 2010 Errors Come With
    A’s News Clips, Friday the 13th, August, 2010 Errors come with catch for Oakland A's infield By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune A's shortstop Cliff Pennington is susceptible to flubbing a routine play on occasion, and he is just as likely to dazzle with a play worthy of the highlight reel. Indeed, the defensive work of Pennington and his infield teammates has been a mixed bag this season. Whatever judgments you cast on the A's infield defense depend largely on the numbers you emphasize. Pennington entered Thursday's play leading American League shortstops with 17 errors. Daric Barton was tied for most among AL first baseman with 10, and third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff had 10 errors, more than tripling his total from last season. Sure-handed second baseman Mark Ellis has stood out in that category, having committed just one error. But although errors are the most basic and easily understood statistic available to critique defensive play, they tell only part of the story. "I'm not overly concerned with the errors," A's infield coach Mike Gallego said. "The big errors to me are the ones that produce a run. When you go over them, I know there's been a few, but I don't recall that happening too often." The A's allowed 76 unearned runs in 2009, second most in the AL. So far this year they've allowed just 38, putting them on pace to lower that total significantly. Pennington is making his share of mistakes in his first full season as the starting shortstop.

  • Female Sportswriters of the Roaring Twenties
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications THEY ARE WOMEN, HEAR THEM ROAR: FEMALE SPORTSWRITERS OF THE ROARING TWENTIES A Thesis in Mass Communications by David Kaszuba © 2003 David Kaszuba Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2003 The thesis of David Kaszuba was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ford Risley Associate Professor of Communications Thesis Adviser Chair of Committee Patrick R. Parsons Associate Professor of Communications Russell Frank Assistant Professor of Communications Adam W. Rome Associate Professor of History John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies in Mass Communications *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Contrary to the impression conveyed by many scholars and members of the popular press, women’s participation in the field of sports journalism is not a new or relatively recent phenomenon. Rather, the widespread emergence of female sports reporters can be traced to the 1920s, when gender-based notions about employment and physicality changed substantially. Those changes, together with a growing leisure class that demanded expanded newspaper coverage of athletic heroes, allowed as many as thirty-five female journalists to make inroads as sports reporters at major metropolitan newspapers during the 1920s. Among these reporters were the New York Herald Tribune’s Margaret Goss, one of several newspaperwomen whose writing focused on female athletes; the Minneapolis Tribune’s Lorena Hickok, whose coverage of a male sports team distinguished her from virtually all of her female sports writing peers; and the New York Telegram’s Jane Dixon, whose reports on boxing and other sports from a so-called “woman’s angle” were representative of the way most women cracked the male-dominated field of sports journalism.

  • Lewis R. Dorman, IV. Ghosts of Glory: a Bibliographic Essay Concerning Pre- 1941 Baseball Autobiography and Oral History
    Lewis R. Dorman, IV. Ghosts of Glory: a Bibliographic Essay Concerning Pre- 1941 Baseball Autobiography and Oral History. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. April 2005. 93 pages. Advisor: Jerry Saye. This paper documents published sources related to autobiographies and oral histories of baseball players, pitchers, and managers who performed the preponderance of their professional career before the United States of America’s involvement with the Second World War. The paper separates the individual autobiographies into three sections based upon the era in which the player is most associated with: the Iron Age (1869-1902), the Silver Age (1903-1922), and the Golden Age (1904-1941). Each section arranges the players alphabetically by surname, and every player entry contains a photograph, brief biographical information, a quotation from the autobiography, and lists of anecdotal works, biographies, films, and museums correlating to the player, when available. The fourth section of the paper concerns oral history (1869-1941), arranging the monographs alphabetically, with each entry including information about the players interviewed similar to the first three sections, but arranged by the player’s occurrence in the monograph.
