  • 1 Sports Culture Among Undergraduates: a Study
    SPORTS CULTURE AMONG UNDERGRADUATES: A STUDY OF STUDENT-ATHLETES AND STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN1 Andrei S. Markovits Department of Political Science, The University of Michigan And David T. Smith Department of Political Science, The University of Michigan 1 We would like to thank Alexander Kingsley Cotton for his fine help coding the surveys. Eric Ambinder’s and Amy Duvall’s assistance was much more valuable than a casual “thank you” might convey. We appreciate Norman Miller’s generosity in letting us survey students who entered his store to obtain their course packs for the fall term of 2003. Terry Adams, Stephanie Chardoul, Lynnette Ruth Foley, Sara Feeland and Ruth Philippou at the Institute of Social Research proved invaluable in entering the data and readying it for our analysis. We also valued their thoughtful suggestions and immense expertise. Susie Henderson and Megan McCallister were indefatigable and indispensable coordinators between us and the coaches whose full cooperation was an absolute necessity for the implementation of our survey. Lastly, our most profound appreciation goes to William C. Martin, the University of Michigan’s Athletic Director, without whose unflagging support for and enthusiastic approval of our study this simply would never have happened. 1 THE CONTEXT Our project has a well-established intellectual pedigree and forms an essential component of a larger academic concern. Since the late 1980s, Andrei Markovits has worked on what he has called “sports cultures” by which he has meant the large framework wherein people “follow” sports.2 As such, his work has concentrated more on the consumption of sports—their “followers” or fans or supporters—as opposed to their production, that is their “doers”, their participants.

  • Baseball Under Glass
    Chapman’s quest for fire sometimes needs a bit of dousing By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Thursday, August 4, 2016 It’s baseball’s “quest for fire,” and the hot- test place around these days is wherever the Cubs are playing. The age-old fascination for a pitcher’s ability to throw 100 mph or more is being satisfied by closer Aroldis Chapman’s rel- atively accurate readings of 102 to 104 mph on successive pitches via radar guns. Chapman has humped it up as high as 105.1 prior to his arrival in Chicago. And yet exceeding the century mark isn’t always the desired result. Although most Lee Smith (left) learned early on a good breaking batters cannot catch up with Chapman’s pitch is necessary, and he advocates the same fastest fastball, the classic wisdom is the for Aroldis Chapman. change of speeds to fool hitters. The logic is eventually, repetition of the fastball will enable the best hitters to time the pitch with their own bat speed – power supplying power. A ranking expert on this is our old friend Lee Arthur Smith. The size of a power for- ward he once was at 6-foot-5, 260 pounds, Big Lee once was reputedly timed as fast as 101 mph. More likely he was a legitimate 95-96 mph, but seemed faster often pitching in creeping late-afternoon shadows in 3 p.m. games at Wrigley Field. Smith threw hard with radar guns already perfected. But the game’s promoters didn’t obsess with his speed like is done with Chapman.
