  • Imperialism and the 1999 Women's World Cup
    IMPERIALISM AND THE 1999 WOMEN’S WORLD CUP: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES AND NIGERIAN NATIONAL TEAMS IN THE U.S. MEDIA by Michele Canning A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida April 2009 Copyright by Michele Canning 2009 ii ABSTRACT Author: Michele Canning Title: Imperialism and the 1999 Women’s World Cup: Representations of the United States and Nigerian National Teams in the U.S. Media Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Josephine-Beoku-Betts Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2009 This research examines the U.S. media during the 1999 Women’s World Cup from a feminist postcolonial standpoint. This research adds to current feminist scholarship on women and sports by de-centering the global North in its discourse. It reveals the bias of the media through the representation of the United States National Team as a universal “woman” athlete and the standard for international women’s soccer. It further argues that, as a result, the Nigerian National Team was cast in simplistic stereotypes of race, class, ethnicity, and nation, which were often also appropriated and commodified. I emphasize that the Nigerian National Team resisted this construction and fought to secure their position in the global soccer landscape. I conclude that these biased representations, which did not fairly depict or value the contributions of diverse competing teams, were primarily employed to promote and sell the event to a predominantly white middle-class American audience.

  • Dave Presher Began Work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’S United Soccer Association, the WUSA’S Mortal Wounds Had Already Been (Self) Inflicted
    By the time Dave Presher began work at the San Diego Spirit of the Women’s United Soccer Association, the WUSA’s mortal wounds had already been (self) inflicted. After blowing through three-years of seed money in an orgy of spending leading up to opening day of its inaugural season, the WUSA stared into the abyss after two seasons of staggering financial losses. Corporate sponsorship badly underperformed expectations and TV ratings barely registered - distressing for a league founded and subsidized by cable television operators. Presher was a 20-year sales veteran of the radio industry, but a pro sports novice. He was expected to apply his promotional know-how to fill seats for the Spirit, a club which already paced the WUSA in season ticket sales. Although brought on as a revenue-side hire, Presher immediately dove into player personnel - transforming an on-field product he found “in shambles“. Trades in the WUSA were rare and unremarkable. The top American players held an equity stake in the league and a say in which cities they agreed to play in. A few weeks into the job, Presher engineered the biggest trade in league history, shipping veterans Shannon Boxx, Margaret Tietjen and Sherrill Kester, along with the #2 overall pick in the 2003 college draft, to the New York Power. In return, San Diego received the #1 overall pick and midfielders Jen Lalor and Wynne McIntosh. The key to the trade was that #1 pick, which Presher used to draft Aly Wagner, the young U.S. National Team midfielder projected to be the best attacking player of her generation.

  • 2015 National Sports Law Negotiation Competition
    2015 NATIONAL SPORTS LAW NEGOTIATION COMPETITION ROUND TWO “A New Hope” GENERAL FACTS FOR BOTH TEAMS Professional athletes, like many in the sports and entertainment industry, have their personal lives thrust into the spotlight. Their actions are scrutinized and the media magnifies their mistakes. Their place in society requires them to perform both on and off the field where they are held to a higher standard due to their status as public figures and role models. With the above in mind, domestic violence is an issue nearly all American professional sports leagues have recently been forced to address due to their players’ involvement in such incidents. In just the past few years, Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens, Jeff Taylor of the Charlotte Bobcats, and Francisco Rodriguez of the Milwaukee Brewers, and others have played a role in some type of domestic violence dispute. With the media and fans following closely, the players’ respective teams, sponsors, and endorsers have been forced to either continue supporting the athlete or separate themselves from the accused. The Parties The Women’s Sports Foundation The Women’s Sports Foundation (the “WSF” or the “Foundation”) was established in 1974 to advance the lives of amateur and professional female athletes through sports and physical activity. Founded by tennis legend Billie Jean King, the WSF boasts an annual $4 million operating budget with offices in Nassau County, New York, and New York City, New York. WSF provides scholarships and grants to aspiring female athletes, as well as access and mentorship to the underprivileged, while encouraging sporting and physical activity for inactive females.
