Lamar Smith and Warren Bryant, was earmarked as a source of pride and spirit for the "Rams" this football season. The band experienced a "Boom" in both morale and membership. This influx and enthusiasm was re­ flective of our newly discovered freshmen ialent being teamed with our seasoned veterans. Although the band has already gained recognition for its dazzling half- time shows, things promise to become even better. This season we featured Kaleidoscopic patterns, dancing majorettes, featured twirlers, and some of the best music ever heard in this region. Our music was highlighted by the "Now Sounds", in the music world. To augment these skilled performances the bandsmen were "Good- footing" in all its new uniforms which were as "Now" as the sounds that we featured. The marching Rams proudly saluted and supported this year's very appropriate homecoming theme: "ASC . Together Let's Find Love." STEWART MARTIN — FEATURED SOLOIST 86 72 WOODROW CARSWELL.

The Rams opened the season with back-to-back wins over Daniel Payne College and the Southwest Georgia Invitational Crown before dropping their first game to SWAC power Alcorn A&M in the Chicago Xmas Classic. Following the Alcorn loss the Rams reeled off eight consecutive wins, bringing their overall record up to 12-1 for the season.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

WRAPP* INTRODUCTION “The truth of the matter is, it’s about the biggest hold-up I’ve ever seen in business. It was highly unethical.”1 That is how John Y. Brown, Jr. (“Brown”), the former owner of the Kentucky Colonels of the American Basketball Association (“ABA”), described the deal consummated between the owners of the other ABA team denied entry into the National Basketball Association (“NBA”) at the time of the 1976 NBA-ABA merger, the Spirits of St. Louis, and the owners of the four ABA teams entering the NBA, the New York Nets, the Indiana Pacers, the Denver Nuggets, and the San Antonio Spurs.2 Essentially, in addition to receiving payment for any Spirits player drafted by NBA teams in the aftermath of the merger, which amounted to roughly $2.2 million, the Spirits’ owners, brothers Daniel (“Dan”) and Ozzie Silna and their lawyer, Donald Schupak, were guaranteed a one-seventh share of each of the four former ABA teams’ NBA “visual media” rights revenue in perpetuity under the terms of the deal.3 While their perpetual share of NBA media rights revenue may have seemed relatively *J.D./MBA, University of Notre Dame, 2014.

  • 1977 Nba Finals
    THE AMBIVALENT LEGACY OF THE 1977 NBA FINALS Roy E. Brownell II* NASSH Conference Panel Presentation “Basketball in Transition: Globalization, Culture, and Historical Memory” May 25, 2019 INTRODUCTION After several up-and-down years, the NBA seemed at last to have turned the corner after the 1977 NBA Finals.1 The series, which saw the Portland Trail Blazers defeat the Philadelphia 76ers, had achieved unprecedented television ratings. It was the capstone on a year that had witnessed record attendance in both the regular season and playoffs,2 the successful merger with the rival ABA and the settlement of the longstanding Oscar Robertson labor litigation.3 The series itself had presented a classic contrast between the team-focus of Portland and the individual talent of Philadelphia.4 Moreover, the series served as a coming out party of sorts for the league’s two most marketable players: Julius Erving and Bill Walton.5 The two seemed to have had the potential to create a proto- “Magic”-Bird rivalry.6 One star was African-American, was the league’s most exciting player, and was polished and at ease with the media and the public. The other was white, was the master of fundamentals and team play, but was distant from the press and the public.7 Yet, despite these encouraging signs, the 1977 Finals would leave an ambivalent legacy. In the immediate term, the success of the Finals proved fleeting as the series itself and its participants dramatized many of the problems that would haunt the league for the next several years. In the longer term, however, the 1977 Finals and its participants also planted the seeds for the league’s redemption and helped usher in the modern game: how it is played, how it is marketed and how it became widely popular.
