  • Reverse Collusion
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLS\4-2\HLS106.txt unknown Seq: 1 29-AUG-13 10:55 Reverse Collusion Ryan M. Rodenberg and Justin M. Lovich† ABSTRACT In the sports industry, collusion has typically manifested itself on the team owner side of the equation, with numerous historical examples of manage- ment collectively moving to suppress player movement and/or salaries for pecuniary reasons. Such collusion is now prohibited in the league-union collective bargaining agreements (“CBAs”) that govern all prominent North American team sports. However, the language in sports league CBAs is not always reciprocal. CBAs in the National Basketball Association (“NBA”) and National Football League do not expressly prohibit player-level “reverse collusion.” Using the recent decision (pun intended) of LeBron James and other basketball stars to create “super-teams” in the NBA through collec- tive action as an anecdotal example, we posit that the omission of reciprocal language in such CBAs has created loopholes that should be closed for com- petitive balance reasons and general considerations such as sports league in- tegrity and transparency.
