Sports Economics, the most comprehensive textbook in the field by celebrated economist Roger D. Blair, focuses primarily on the business and economics aspects of major professional sports and the NCAA. It employs the basic principles of economics to address issues such as the organization of leagues, pricing, advertising, and broadcasting as well as the labor market in sports. Among its novel features is the candid coverage of the image and integrity of players, teams, managers, and the leagues themselves, including cases of gambling, cheating, misconduct, and steroids. The text also discusses other controversial subjects such as disciplining participants, discrimination, the financing of facilities, and how salaries are determined. Blair explains how economic decisions are made under conditions of uncertainty using the well-known expected utility model and makes extensive use of present value concepts to analyze investment decisions. Numerous examples are drawn from the daily press. The text offers ample boxes to illustrate sports themes, as well as extensive use of diagrams, tables, problem sets, and research questions.

I bought this used sports economics book for my college class. It provided a lot of valuable perspectives and I learned a ton! Just be aware, you might find some previous notes in it, which can be distracting.

Not What I Expected
Honestly, I thought I was getting a better condition book. The used sports economics text had noticeable wear and tear, and some pages were difficult to read. Just make sure you check the condition before buying.

Good Info, But Condition Matters
Got this used sports economics book, and while the information is solid, the condition was not as good as I hoped. A few pages were dog-eared and marked up. Still, the content was worth it for my research.
