Two of the most stacked lineups in the USL will meet for the third time in the all-time series, a series Reno has a one-win advantage in. Reno (0-1-1) returns to Greater Nevada Field after a road match at rival Las Vegas Light FC which resulted in a 1-1 draw. Reno was due to play Rio Grande Valley FC early on the road on Wednesday but the match was postponed to May 2 due to logistical reasons. Entering Saturday’s match against Phoenix, Reno once again brings a potent attack that has already produced four goals through the first two matches. Forward Brian Brown leads Reno’s attack with a goal and assist to his name in 2018. Through the first two matches, Brown has found himself playing at both the attacking forward and attacking midfielder roles due to Reno’s depth at attacker. Brown said he’ll have to play at the top of his game Saturday no matter where he’s placed in head coach Ian Russell’s Starting XI. “They’re a really good team, coming off a win,” Brown said “So we will have to play our best game ear- ly on this season. I am looking forward to it, I think I played my best game against them last season.” Led by international soccer legend and superstar Didier Drogba, Phoenix (1-0-1) has become one of the most dangerous threats in the West after making the playoffs last season. Phoenix is coming off a 4-1 win which featured a hat trick by USL Player of the Week, forward Chris Cortez. Despite fellow international superstars Omar Bravo and Shaun Wright-Phillips not returning to Phoenix, Rising FC reloaded from front to back already becoming one of the top offensive teams of 2018. “Phoenix is a good team,” Reno head coach Ian Russell said. “They have Drogba and some other really solid players. “We just need to prepare properly, which we’ve been doing all week.” Gates for Saturday’s match are slated to open at 3 p.m. Tickets for Saturday’s showdown can be purchased at Reno1868FC.com/tickets or at the Greater Nevada Field box office.

Phoenix returns one of the greatest soccer players of this generation along with a newly stacked lineup that just posted a 4-1 win over Western Conference power, OKC Energy FC.. The 4-1 win was due in large part of another name, USL Player of the Week and Phoenix forward Chris Cortez who scored a hat trick to carry Phoenix to its first win of the season. Cortez joined Reno goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski on the USL’s Team of the Week. Cortez, Drogba and other names are sure to test a Reno squad that is quickly gelling and finding depth. Here are a few opponent names you need to know ahead of Saturday’s epic Western Conference showdown: Didier Drogba Height: 6-foot-2 Weight: 201 pounds Position: Forward Why He’s Important: Legend. That’s all you really have to know about Drogba. One of the most recognizable faces from his days as a Champions League winner with Chelsea to his inspiring captainship of his native Ivory Coast’s national team. Drogba has made a name for himself across the world and is a player for the history books. Last year, Drogba didn’t get started until around midseason but he did make the trip to Reno where 1868 FC shut down one of the most prolific goal scorers in recent memory. Drogba ended up picking up the pace with 10 goals in 2017 and is sure to be a force in this, his final season of professional soccer. 12 SCOUTING PHOENIX Billy Forbes Height: 5-foot-7 Weight: 161 pounds Position: Forward Why He’s Important: Sound familiar? Forbes is one of the fastest players in the USL and was one of the biggest signings of the 2017-18 offseason. Forbes terrorized Reno in the first meeting with his former team, San Antonio FC last season. Forbes scored the first goal in the 4-0 loss at San Antonio. His speed and instinct for goal makes him one of the top threats Saturday. Chris Cortez Height: 6-foot-4 Weight: 185 pounds Position: Forward Why He’s Important: Cortez already made a name for himself early on in the season with his recent hat trick. Cortez is a strong, tall striker who is an aerial threat due to his height. A true No. 9 (striker), Cortez scored five goals for Phoenix last year and has 15 over the past three seasons (including 2018). Reno’s back four and Marcinkowski held off aerial attempts by Las Vegas over the weekend but this will be a completely different test as Cortez is in top form. 13 SCOUTING PHOENIX Soloman Asante Height: 5-foot-2 Weight: 132 pounds Position: Midfielder Why He’s Important: Asante is small in stature but extremely dangerous from his position. The crafty Ghanian midfielder has already etched his name in the scoresheet this season with a golazo that was featured on ESPN’s SportsCenter Top 10 over the weekend. His agility will be a test for both Reno’s back four and defensive midfielder. Not only does Asante have the ability to score himself, he’s able to create chances for other dangerous Phoenix attackers. Carl Woszczynski Height: 6-foot-5 Weight: 209 pounds Position: Goalkeeper Why He’s Important: Woszczynski will face Reno for the first time in goal for Phoenix.

Greyser Kenneth Cortsen Working Paper 21-111 MLS as a Sports Product – the Prominence of the World’s Game in the U.S. Stephen A.

MLS as a Sports Product – the Prominence of the World’s Game in the U.S. April 8, 2021 Abstract The purpose of this Working Paper is to analyze how soccer at the professional level in the U.S., with Major League Soccer as a focal point, has developed over the span of a quarter of a century. It is worthwhile to examine the growth of MLS from its first game in 1996 to where the league currently stands as a business as it moves past its 25th anniversary. The 1994 World Cup (held in the U.S.) and the subsequent implementation of MLS as a U.S. professional league exerted a major positive influence on soccer participation and fandom in the U.S. Consequently, more importance was placed on soccer in the country’s culture. The research reported here explores the league’s evolution and development through the cohesion existing between its sporting and business development, as well as its performance.

    Its Effects on America's Pastime and Other Professional Sports Leagues

    BASEBALL JURISPRUDENCE: Its Effects on America’s Pastime and Other Professional Sports Leagues Allan H. (“Bud”) Selig* and Matthew J. Mitten** INTRODUCTION This article analyzes leading baseball-related judicial decisions, arbitration awards, and federal legislation regarding the Major League Baseball (MLB) commissioner’s “best interests” power, baseball’s antitrust exemption, and labor relations with MLB players as well as the scope of league, club, and players’ intellectual property rights. As the first law review article authored or co-authored by a current or former commissioner of a North American major professional sports league, it provides a unique insider perspective regarding baseball jurisprudence and its effects on the historical development and business affairs of MLB and its member clubs as well as their relationships with baseball players and their union, fans, and others. It also briefly considers how baseball jurisprudence has influenced the evolution, operations, and relationships of other North American major professional sports leagues such as the National Basketball Association (NBA), National Football League (NFL), and National Hockey League (NHL) as well as others such as Major League Soccer (MLS) and the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA). I. COMMISSIONER “BEST INTERESTS” POWER The first commissioner of any United States professional sports league was Kenesaw Mountain Landis, a Chicago federal judge who became Major League Baseball commissioner on January 12, 1921, to protect the integrity of the sport, specifically to ensure that “game fixing” like the infamous 1919 * Commissioner Emeritus, Major League Baseball, and Distinguished Lecturer in Sports Law and Policy, Marquette University Law School; Commissioner, Major League Baseball, July 9, 1998–January 24, 2015; Owner and President, Milwaukee Brewers Baseball Club, April 1970– January 2005; National Baseball Hall of Fame Inductee, July 30, 2017.
