About this ebook

In The Bottom Line, one of the foremost sports economists writing today, Andrew Zimbalist (National Pastime), analyzes the "net value" of sports. He examines motives for why owners buy franchises, the worth of the players and the profitability of teams, and the importance of publicly funded stadiums. In the essays collected here—which appeared in publications like The New York Times, Sports Business Journal, and The Wall Street Journal from 1998-2006—Zimbalist considers the current state of organized sports, from football and baseball to basketball, hockey, and soccer. He also addresses antitrust and labor relations issues, gender equity concerns, collegiate athletics, and the regulation of steroid use, providing readers with a better understanding of the business of sports and the sports business—and what makes both tick.

Eric Pliner on Navigating Difficult Decisions: This week I had the opportunity to speak with Eric Pliner about his new book, Difficult Decisions: How Leaders Make the Right Call with Insight, Integrity, and Empathy. In this conversation, Eric lays out three steps for making decisions with speed, clarity, and humanity. We talk about decision making and why it's difficult, why it slows us down and how by equipping ourselves with "skilled subjectivity" we can not only improve our productivity and focus but prepare ourselves for difficult decisions we will inevitably face in the future.

How Good a General Manager Is Rob Pelinka? Has He Fully Rehabbed His Image (Guest: Harrison Faigen): So how good a GM is Rob Pelinka? There are very few questions you could ask of Lakers fans, and Lakers media, over the last few years and receive a wider variety of answers, depending on the date. The swings here are massive. On the one hand, he's won a title! On the other, he completely destroyed a season-and-a-half with the Russell Westbrook trade, and made a bunch of other technical errors that have cost the Lakers over the last few years. But then again, the man completely rescued the team from the h-e-double hockey sticks in which he put it at the trade deadline, reforming the roster and forming a group that reached the Western Conference Finals. This summer, he did good work maintaining the roster and adding a little more balance. There was no big swing for a shiny object, no upheaval to try and add another star. On the other hand... there really weren't any stars to go get. Not w

How the New Orleans Saints Continue to Beat the Cap, What's Next?: After the New Orleans Saints made the tough, but expected, cuts of Kwon Alexander and Emmanuel Sanders, their cap situation drastically improved as they also learned the NFL Salary Cap would be $182.5M in 2021. How much money the Saints freed up, and why Kwon's story in the Big Easy might not be done. New Orleans also restructured the contracts of Andrus Peat and Malcolm Jenkins opening up another nearly $10M. How the restructures helped, but felt more like a need than a want. New Orleans was also awarded three compensatory picks, which picks they were granted, and where they select throughout the draft for now. Ranking the top three salary cap moves left for New Orleans. The list tops off with a move that not only frees up cap space, but builds toward a bright future. Mickey Loomis and Khai Harley continue to work their magic as the New Orleans Saints bulldoze their expected salary cap woes. Follow Ross on Twitter @Ros
