[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay comparing the professional sports of Japan and the United States.

Seniority System And Professional Football
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. Professional football is not unlike any other large corporation where seniority garners more benefits - both expressed and implied - with each passing year. Such enticements as perks are part and parcel to the big-money component of football; inasmuch as a player is only as good as his talent, its serves as good business sense to use whatever means by which to keep him on the team so the organization continues flowing with money. Players quickly become tangible assets courted by other teams, which makes their value grow even greater with every year they remain in the league, an average which reflects about eight years. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Should Public Money be Used to Subsidize Professional Sports and Sporting Venues?
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page report discusses the fact that both individuals and city governments who are eager to have a professional sports franchise located in their city list numerous reasons why public dollars should be spent to entice a team to come to town or stay in town -- increased employment opportunities, greater revenue for the city, quality of life considerations for locals, and, of course, civic pride. But the question is whether or not tax dollars should be used to entice teams to locate in a city, build the arena necessary to house the team, or upgrade an arena or park because the team threatens to move elsewhere unless the city does so. In a sense, once the city gets its franchise it is held hostage by it. This paper looks at several sides of the issue. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
