  • Downtrodden Yet Determined: Exploring the History Of
    DOWNTRODDEN YET DETERMINED: EXPLORING THE HISTORY OF BLACK MALES IN PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL AND HOW THE PLAYERS ASSOCIATION ADDRESSES THEIR WELFARE A Dissertation by JUSTIN RYAN GARNER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha Brison Paul J. Batista Tommy J. Curry Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore May 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Justin R. Garner ABSTRACT Professional athletes are paid for their labor and it is often believed they have a weaker argument of exploitation. However, labor disputes in professional sports suggest athletes do not always receive fair compensation for their contributions to league and team success. Any professional athlete, regardless of their race, may claim to endure unjust wages relative to their fellow athlete peers, yet Black professional athletes’ history of exploitation inspires greater concerns. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to explore and trace the historical development of basketball in the United States (US) and the critical role Black males played in its growth and commercial development, and 2) to illuminate the perspectives and experiences of Black male professional basketball players concerning the role the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and National Basketball Retired Players Association (NBRPA), collectively considered as the Players Association for this study, played in their welfare and addressing issues of exploitation. While drawing from the conceptual framework of anti-colonial thought, an exploratory case study was employed in which in-depth interviews were conducted with a list of Black male professional basketball players who are members of the Players Association.

  • Antitrust Law: Procedural Safeguard Requirements in Concerted Refusals to Deal: an Application to Professional Sports-Denver Rockets V
    ANTITRUST LAW: PROCEDURAL SAFEGUARD REQUIREMENTS IN CONCERTED REFUSALS TO DEAL: AN APPLICATION TO PROFESSIONAL SPORTS-DENVER ROCKETS V. ALL-PRO MANAGEMENT, INC. (C.D. CAL. 1971). Professional sports are a continually growing source of enter- tainment for millions of Americans. Going hand in hand with this growth has been a number of complex and heretofore unresolved legal disputes. Perhaps the most important of these disputes is the role that antitrust laws will play in the area of professional sport leagues and associations. For example, it is argued that pro- visions such as reserve and option clauses, college player drafts and eligibility requirements are designed to increase integrity and competition in the leagues, a necessity for maximum fan enthusi- asm and a successful sports industry. Others believe that these regulations are unduly restrictive towards athletes, are necessary. only to increase the profit of the hierarchy of professional sports,- and are violative of the antitrust laws. The debate and litigation is continuing. In Flood v. Kuhn,' a case which many thought would provide a solution in this area, the Supreme Court of the United States failed once again to give an adequate answer to the question of antitrust laws as applied to professional sports.2 Nonetheless, the extent of the antitrust laws' role in the sports in- dustry must be decided if one is to chart the future of professional sports in this country. A possible indication of future judicial re- sponse in this area has emerged in Denver Rockets v. All-Pro Man- agement, Inc. (Haywood).3 In that case, the court found an estab- lished National Basketball Association4 rule to be in violation of 1.

Prof. Dr. Owen Miller August 2020 Professional basketball players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) founded the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) in 1954. The first collective act of professional basketball players under the NBPA was a threat to strike just before the 1964 NBA All-Star Game. Eventually, they had achieved to get the pension plan that they hoped for many years. Larry Fleisher, the general counsel of the NBPA, and Oscar Robertson, the president of the NBPA, were determined to abolish the reserve clause in basketball. The reserve clause restrained the free movement of professional athletes for many years, and NBA players were the ones who established staunch struggle against it, in various ways, including litigation. The NBPA filed a class-action lawsuit, also known as the Oscar Robertson lawsuit, against the merger between two basketball leagues, the NBA, and the ABA (American Basketball Association) in April 1970.

NEW YORK CITY, MARCH 19, 1859 Friars in Semis, Upset Bills Providence College blasted Its way Into the semi-finals of the National In• vitation Tournament by defeating St. Louis 75-72 in a double overtime thriller Tuesday night in Madison Square Garden. Led by the fantastic shotting and defensive work of Lenny Wilkens, the Black and White of Coach Joe Kullaney fought from behind time and again through out the ballgame and finally won it on the clutch foul shooting of Johnny Egan and Captain Jimmy Swartz.

  • Confessions of a Basketball Star
    CONFESSIONS OF A BASKETBALL STAR By James A. Johnson©2015 Success is Preparation Meeting Opportunity November 11th is a special day in America that honors veterans who gave their lives for democracy. But, to this writer it has an additional significance. November 11, 1954 is the day my family moved to West Hartford. At that time, West Hartford was one of the wealthiest incorporated towns, per household income, in the United States, after Beverly Hills, California and Shaker Heights, Ohio. Connecticut is still the wealthiest state in median family income in the United States. Gotcha! Many of you are thinking, I didn’t know that. Keep in mind there were and still are a plethora of wealthier areas and communities in America, but not necessarily incorporated towns. Today, Greenwich, New Canaan, Darien, Ridgefield and Westport, Connecticut surpass West Hartford in wealth, with such illustrious names as Judge Judy, David Letterman, Paul Newman (deceased), Martha Stewart, Regis Philbin, Kennedy/Skakel, Diana Ross, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, Ray Dalio (Hedge Fund-Bridgewater Assoc’s), Frank Gifford – NFL N.Y. Giants (deceased) and others too numerous to mention. As of the 2010 Census, New Canaan, a bastion of Fairfield County wealth tops the Gold Coast ranking at $220,000 in median family income. West Hartford is 45th at $102,000. But, according to Forbes in 2014 the wealthiest neighborhood in America or richest zip code 06830 with an average income that tops $610, 000 per year is Greenwich’s Golden Triangle. Although West Hartford’s household income ranking is not as high as it was back in the day, the school system remains one of the best in the United States.
