    A Look at the Leagues that Saved Baseball on Two Continents Nate Manuel for American Baseball Perspective Thursday, July 30, 2014 UPDATED Sunday, February 12, 2017 By the mid-2000s, even its most ardent supporters could read the writing on Major League Baseball’s wall. A lack of fiscal discipline had pushed player salary expectations to a point where only a select few teams could afford to field a competitive roster. Teams counting on gate and media revenue to foot the bill were in for a shock. After the heady highs of the 90s “Age of Offense”, fans disillusioned from countless scandals and revelations of steroid abuse expressed their frustration by staying home and spending their merchandising dollars elsewhere. With ratings sharply in decline, lucrative national and regional Eight years ago, pro baseball in America was broadcast deals became hard to come by. In May of 2004, the first two teams seemingly in jeopardy missed payroll. MLB covered for the clubs, claiming it was a temporary setback. But another three teams would come up short before the season was over. By mid-2006, half of the league’s teams were in default, and seven had declared bankruptcy. Negotiations with the Players’ Association went nowhere. MLBPA took a hard line: Pay us what we deserve or we’ll find someone else who will. The intractability of both sides sealed the league’s fate. On November 5, 2006, the official announcement came: MLB was suspending all operations indefinitely. The plan was to restructure the league’s business model, work out a new unified media contract model, and resume play in 2007 after a brief delay from the normal start of the season.

  • The Impacts and Benefits Yielded from the Sport of Quidditch
    THE IMPACTS AND BENEFITS YIELDED FROM THE SPORT OF QUIDDITCH A Dissertation by ADAM SALKIN COHEN Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Jon Welty Peachey Committee Members, George B. Cunningham John Singer Michael Edwards Head of Department, Richard Kreider August 2013 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2013 Adam Salkin Cohen ABSTRACT This dissertation presents two individual studies aimed at providing insight into the impacts and benefits of participation and involvement in an alternative sport. Thus, the purpose was to monitor and evaluate the authentic sport of quidditch, based on the Harry Potter franchise, and the governing body, the International Quidditch Association (IQA). In Study 1, through a grounded theory approach, I examined the impact and benefits on participants and determined similarities and differences to traditional sport activities. Findings suggest involvement with quidditch provided leadership skills, social gains, increased health and fitness, self-confidence and pride, along with a positive sporting experience, all of which have been recognized in more traditional sports. Further analysis revealed the grassroots component of the sport provided leadership opportunities that organized traditional sport often cannot provide. In Study 2, I furthered my exploration with the sport of quidditch through a grounded theory approach and examined the impact and benefits for volunteers who chose to work for the IQA. Findings suggested the unique atmosphere of quidditch was able to produce an environment that yielded positive impact on the volunteers. It was found that volunteering for the IQA resulted in two themes recognized as a precursor to social capital development: A positive experience within a sport setting and meeting new people and like-minded individuals.

    Hometown Teams: How Sports Shape America Exhibition Script Turf Pylon Hometown Teams: How Sports Shape America Our love of sports begins in our hometowns. We play on ball fields and sandlots, on courts and on ice, in parks and playgrounds, even in the street. From pick‐up games to organized leagues, millions of Americans of all ages play sports. Win or lose, we yearn to compete and play another day. If we’re not playing sports, we’re watching them. We sit in the stands and root for the local high school team, or gather on the sidelines and cheer on our sons and daughters as they take their first swing or score their first goal. Hometown sports are more than just games — they shape our lives and unite us and celebrate who we are as Americans. Turf Every sport has its place.
