  • FLOOD V. KUHN Supreme Court of the United States 407 U.S
    FLOOD v. KUHN Supreme Court of the United States 407 U.S. 258, 92 S. Ct. 2099 (1972) Mr. Justice BLACKMUN delivered the opinion of the Court. For the third time in 50 years the Court is asked specifically to rule that professional baseball's reserve system is within the reach of the federal antitrust laws.1 . 1 The reserve system, publicly introduced into baseball contracts in 1887, see Metropolitan Exhibition Co. v. Ewing, 42 F. 198, 202--204 (C.C.SDNY 1890), centers in the uniformity of player contracts; the confinement of the player to the club that has him under the contract; the assignability of the player's contract; and the ability of the club annually to renew the contract unilaterally, subject to a stated salary minimum. Thus A. Rule 3 of the Major League Rules provides in part: '(a) UNIFORM CONTRACT. To preserve morale and to produce the similarity of conditions necessary to keen competition, the contracts between all clubs and their players in the Major Leagues shall be in a single form which shall be prescribed by the Major League Executive Council. No club shall make a contract different from the uniform contract or a contract containing a non-reserve clause, except with the written approval of the Commissioner. '(g) TAMPERING. To preserve discipline and competition, and to prevent the enticement of players, coaches, managers and umpires, there shall be no negotiations or dealings respecting employment, either present or prospective, between any player, coach or manager and any club other than the club with which he is under contract or acceptance of terms, or by which he is reserved, or which has the player on its Negotiation List, or between any umpire and any league other than the league with which he is under contract or acceptance of terms, unless the club or league with which he is connected shall have, in writing, expressly authorized such negotiations or dealings prior to their commencement.'

  • The Interior Stadium Sports Are Too Much with Us
    ROGER ANGELL The Interior Stadium sports are too much with us. Late and soon, sitting and watching-mostly watching on television-we lay waste our powers of identification and enthusiasm and, in time, attention as more and more closing rallies and crucial utts and late field goals and final playoffs and sudden deaths and world recrds and world championships unreel themselves ceaselessly before our half, dded eyes. Professional leagues expand like bubble gum, ever larger and thinner, and the extended sporting seasons, now bunching and overlapping t the ends, conclude in exhaustion and the wrong weather. So, too, goes the secondary business of sports-the news or non-news off the field. Sports an, ouncers (ex-halfbacks in Mod hairdos) bring us another live, exclusive inxview in depth with the twitchy coach of some as yet undefeated basketball :am, or with a weeping (for joy) fourteen-year-old champion female backroker, and the sports pages, now almost the largest single part of the newsTer, brim with salary disputes, medical bulletins, franchise maneuverings, l-star ballots, drug scandals, close-up biogs, after-dinner tributes, union tactics, weekend wrapups, wire-service polls, draft-choice trades, clubhouse gossip, and the latest odds. The American obsession with sports is not a new phenomenon, of course, except in its current dimensions, its excessive excessiveness. What is new, and what must at times unsettle even the most devout and unselective fan, is a curious sense of loss. In the midst of all these successive spectacles and instant replays and endless reportings and recapitulations, we seem to have forgotten what we came for.

However, that arrangement public as well as many Major League teams. would have to be modified each year since the eight game inter- league sets would add 32 games while the intraleague reductions However, this is also a good opportunity to would only account for 28 games.

    University of Wisconsin Eau Claire Dead and Gone: How the Home Run Lifted Baseball Out Of the Dead Ball Era By: Zac Thome Dr. James Oberly Department of History History 489 20 April, 2007 1 "The game of base ball has now become beyond question the leading feature of the outdoor sports of the United States ... It is a game which is peculiarly suited to the American temperament and disposition; ... in short, the pastime suits the people, and the people suit the pastime."1 Author Charles A. Peverelly 1866 Charles Peverelly was an author in the mid 1800‟s. He was one of the first authors in American history to write about modern sports.2 As Peverelly states, baseball is a pastime. It is often referred to as America‟s pastime. In some cases it has even been called a religion. Annie Savoy (Susan Sarandon) in the movie Bull Durham said, "The only church that truly feeds the soul, day-in day- out, is the Church of Baseball."3 Comparing baseball and religion may sound absurd, but nobody can deny that baseball, too many Americans, has become a large part of their every day lives. In the early years of the game only a few hundred thousand people came out to support their favorite teams. As popularity grew Major League Baseball attendance jumped over seven million people from 1900 (1,829,490) to 1920 (9,120,875).4 The season was longer in 1920 which is why ticket sales were up, but it is only one reason. The season length went from 136 games in 100 to 154 1 Baseball Almanac, http://www.baseball-almanac.com/ (accessed 1 March, 2007).
