| book description |

This book is a Festschrift in honor or Professor Rod Fort, one of the leading contributors to the emerging field of sports economics in the past half century. Professor Fort’s path-breaking research in the 1990s and 2000s both laid down an agenda for research in sports economics and popularized the application of economic analysis to sports issues for lay readers. The contributors to the volume are among the leading scholars in modern sports economics. They put issues highlighted in Professor Fort’s research in the context of current issues. Topics discussed include competitive balance and outcome uncertainty estimation, gender-wage discrimination in US professional soccer, and the paradox of fan loyalty.
