Since JSEL’s inception in 2009 under the leadership of the first Editors, my former Sports Law Students Ashwin Krishnan and Ryan Gauthier, JSEL has continued to thrive and prosper under the continuing direction of numerous, outstanding Editors- in-Chief, including this year’s Editor, Miles Wiley. Editor-in-Chief Miles Wiley continued that proud tradition during the past year, as JSEL challenged itself, under Miles’s leadership, to be more selective than ever as it accepted only the most thought-provoking and cutting-edge articles for publication in JSEL. In doing so, Submissions Committee leaders Jenna Hayes and Mitch Drucker, along with the many other HLS students that tirelessly reviewed pieces throughout the year, put together two excel- lent editions. At the same time, JSEL delivered on its long-standing promise to add an interactive Blog component to the JSEL Website, which Miles, Online Con- tent Chair Tim Lamoureux and Executive Editor Kelly Donnelly most capa- bly supervised to achieve its goal of sparking online discussions of the most important Sports and Entertainment Law issues of the day. Throughout the academic year, Executive Editors Jenna Hayes, Brandon Hammer and Kelly Donnelly most capably shared the many long nights of dedicated effort that made this year’s two editions of JSEL among the very best I have been proud to supervise since its first publication. As a result, in its First Edition, JSEL was able to publish three exciting Articles of which the entire JSEL Staff should be proud — including the many Line Editors and Editors assigned to those Articles, without whom no publication of JSEL would be possible. The three published Articles in the first Edition included an exemplary piece by a former HLS Sports Law standout, Jeff Monhait, whom I was proud both to have in my Sports Law Classes and to supervise in a Sports Law Clinical Placement. Jeff’s contribution to the scholarship regarding Baseball Arbitration as an ADR Success (or not), will no doubt spark much debate both in the academic as well as in the professional baseball commu- nity itself. Continuing with that same baseball theme, Garrett Broshuis also contrib- uted a unique and personal investigation into the life of a Minor League Baseball Player. This is a subject about which I am personally passionate, given my summer avocation of providing legal advice to a number of affili- ated Minor League teams, and a close reading of Garrett’s well-documented explanation of why Minor League Players remain baseball’s “untouchables” ties in perfectly with the piece by Mitchell Nathanson: “Who Exempted Baseball Anyway? The Curious Development of the Antitrust Exemption that Never Was.” I assure you that any careful reader of these two comple- mentary Articles will come to view all future professional baseball games in a new and better-informed legal light, thanks to Messrs. Nathanson’s and Broshuis’s original research, for which JSEL thanks them. In the Second Edition, JSEL expanded beyond Sports Law, and was proud to accept two scholarly submissions that delved into the most intimate details of intellectual property protection. Any reader of the two pieces, “Copy- right and Responsibility” (for which we thank Haochen Sun) and HLS Stu- dent Claire Guehenno’s illuminating submission “Color War: The Louboutin Decision and Single-Color Marks in the Fashion Industry,” will be richly rewarded by following the intriguing and challenging conclusions reached by them, which should continue to spark scholarly debate and hopefully influence judicial outcomes in ways suggested by the authors. Finally, in the Second Edition of JSEL, we returned to Sports and the Law — but stretched ourselves to reach into other professional sports leagues and their respective CBA’s (the NBA and the NFL); as well as the regulation of agents seeking to represent prospective professional athletes under the Uni- form Athlete Agent Act and SPARTA. Again, we want to thank Professor Ryan Rodenberg and his PhD. Student Justin Lovich for their piece on “Re- verse Collusion” in the three major Leagues, with a particular emphasis on the NBA. Any fan of LeBron James and the Miami Heat will enjoy this thoughtful submission, whereas Cleveland Cavaliers’ fans (like myself) will want to see change effectuated to prevent players from abusing the absence of specific CBA language prohibiting “player collusion” and creating “Super Teams,” as may have happened when LeBron took his talents to South Beach. Finally, a frequent contributor to JSEL and to our Annual CSEL Symposia, Professor Marc Edelman, has inspired all of us who teach and practice in the area of counseling agents and pre-professional athletes with one of his best JSEL submissions ever: “Disarming the Trojan Horse of the UAAA and SPARTA: How America Should Reform Its Sports Agent Laws to Conform to True Agency Principles.” Thanks, Marc. I will be sure to use your JSEL Article when next teaching my Course “Representing the Professional Ath- lete”—it is an important contribution to the field. So, I will conclude by once again thanking Miles Wiley, Jenna Hayes, Bran- don Hammer, and Kelly Donnelly for creating what will surely be judged to be one of, if not the very best JSEL Edition published in our brief but distin- guished history. Thanks to them, their dedicated Staff (which will be led next year by Kelly Donnelly), as well as the continuing support of Dean Minow and the Harvard Law School administration, we can look forward to yet another record-breaking year in 2013-14, as JSEL continues to build upon the strong foundation and significant improvements thereon which I have been proud to supervise since JSEL’s inception. Please enjoy this year’s Editions, and let us know what you think by e- mailing us at [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from you. Disarming the Trojan Horse of the UAAA and SPARTA: How America Should Reform its Sports Agent Laws to Conform with True Agency Principles Marc Edelman1 ABSTRACT The accompanying article argues that most sports agent laws subordinate ath- letes’ interests to those of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (“NCAA”), and that sports agent laws need to change to better protect both professional and amateur athletes.

    Regulating Sports Gaming Data

    REGULATING SPORTS GAMING DATA Ryan M. Rodenberg* I. INTRODUCTION “Congress can regulate sports gambling directly, but if it elects not to do so, each State is free to act on its own,” concluded the U.S. Supreme Court in Gov. Murphy v. NCAA.1 In the two years since the Supreme Court declared the partial federal sports betting ban in the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (“PASPA”)2 unconstitutional and, in turn, opened up the legalization of sports betting nationwide, there has been one topic that has garnered considerable attention—sports gaming data. ‘Data’—a generic word that includes news and information about sports gaming—has become one of the most-discussed contemporary topics in sports gaming regulation globally.3 Indeed, since the Supreme Court case, the regulatory treatment of sports betting news, information, and data has taken a prominent role in dozens of legislative bodies, at numerous industry conferences, and in a prominent lawsuit recently filed in the United Kingdom. Industry * Associate Professor, Florida State University. This paper was completed in conjunction with a non-resident research fellowship granted by the International Center for Gaming Regulation (“ICGR”) at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The ICGR is an academic institute dedicated to the study of gaming regulation and policy development. The author would like to thank the ICGR for its research support and Christopher Perrigan for excellent research assistance. 1 Murphy v. Nat’l Collegiate Athletic Ass’n, 138 S. Ct. 1461, 1484–85 (2018). As of June 20, 2020, there remains a spin-off legal proceeding in the court system that is unrelated to the foci here.

    Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Jazz History and Research Graduate Program in Arts written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr. Henry Martin And approved by Newark, New Jersey May 2016 ©2016 Zachary Streeter ALL RIGHT RESERVED ABSTRACT Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zach Streeter Thesis Director: Dr. Lewis Porter Despite the institutionalization of jazz music, and the large output of academic activity surrounding the music’s history, one is hard pressed to discover any information on the late jazz guitarist Jimmy Raney or the legacy Jimmy Raney left on the instrument. Guitar, often times, in the history of jazz has been regulated to the role of the rhythm section, if the guitar is involved at all. While the scope of the guitar throughout the history of jazz is not the subject matter of this thesis, the aim is to present, or bring to light Jimmy Raney, a jazz guitarist who I believe, while not the first, may have been among the first to pioneer and challenge these conventions. I have researched Jimmy Raney’s background, and interviewed two people who knew Jimmy Raney: his son, Jon Raney, and record producer Don Schlitten. These two individuals provide a beneficial contrast as one knew Jimmy Raney quite personally, and the other knew Jimmy Raney from a business perspective, creating a greater frame of reference when attempting to piece together Jimmy Raney.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography

    Gerry Mulligan Discography

    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

    An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures

    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 2, Annual (1980) Latrobe LATROBE, PA.: CRADLE OF PRO FOOTBALL By Robert B. Van Atta John Kinport Brallier, who was to become nationally acknowledged as one of the first professional football players, was born at Cherry Tree, Pa., north of Indiana, Pa., Dec. 27, 1876, the son of Dr. Emanuel Brallier, a physician, and his wife, Lucy M. Kinport Brallier. His grandparents were from Alsace-Lorraine in Europe, accounting for the French-sounding name. As a boy, Brallier remembered having worked in a glass factory. His first recollection of football was in 1890, at the age of 13, when he played for the West Indiana Public School team. By 1892, he was captain and right halfback on the high school team as a sophomore, just before his 16th birthday. The year of 1893 saw the youthful athlete, while still attending the public high school, also “matriculating at Indiana Normal so I could play on the team.” The team won three of four games played that year, and among Brallier’s teammates was left guard Alex Stewart, future father of movie star Jimmy Stewart. Brallier quarterbacked the Normal team in both 1893 and 1894. His second year on the team found it winning only two of five games, but against much tougher opposition provided by college teams and teams of former college players. The fourth game that year was a 28-0 loss to Washington and Jefferson, but Brallier’s outstanding play was to have a major effect on his future. E. Gard Edwards, coach of the Wash-Jeff team, wrote from Pittsburgh to John Brallier, Dec.

We appreciate your willingness to help. In the voters packet you will find the official ballot, an example ballot, and the nominee biographies: 1. The official ballot is what you return to us. Please return to us no later than Mon- day, February 11. 2. The example ballot’s purpose is to demonstrate the balloting rules. Obviously the names on the example ballot are not the nominee names. That was done to prevent you from being biased by the rankings you see there. 3. Each nominee has a profile in the biography packet. Some are more detailed than others and reflect what we received from the institutions and/or obtained in our own research. The ballot instructions are somewhat detailed, so be sure to read the directions at the top of the official ballot. Use the example ballot as a reference. Please try to consider the nominees based on their collegiate careers. In many cases nominees have gone on to professional careers but keep the focus on his college career as a player and/or coach. The Veterans (pre-1947) nominees often lack biographical details relative to those in the post-1947 categories. In those cases, the criteria may take on a broader spectrum to include the impact they had on the game/history of college baseball, etc.
