Book Baseball Meets the Law

Download or read book Baseball Meets the Law written by Ed Edmonds and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-03-04 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baseball and law have intersected since the primordial days. In 1791, a Pittsfield, Massachusetts, ordinance prohibited ball playing near the town's meeting house. Ball games on Sundays were barred by a Pennsylvania statute in 1794. In 2015, a federal court held that baseball's exemption from antitrust laws applied to franchise relocations. Another court overturned the conviction of Barry Bonds for obstruction of justice. A third denied a request by rooftop entrepreneurs to enjoin the construction of a massive video screen at Wrigley Field. This exhaustive chronology traces the effects the law has had on the national pastime, both pro and con, on and off the field, from the use of copyright to protect not only equipment but also "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" to frequent litigation between players and owners over contracts and the reserve clause. The stories of lawyers like Kenesaw Mountain Landis and Branch Rickey are entertainingly instructive.

Book The Juice

  • Release : 2005
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book The Juice written by Will Carroll and published by Ivan R. Dee Publisher. This book was released on 2005 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Or are we overreacting? The fact is that the drug problem in baseball is being confronted with a poverty of information. How do steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs work, and what impact do they have on athletes and especially on baseball players? Are they a danger to the game or simply a harbinger of inevitable change? The drug problem is a fundamental issue not only for baseball but for all of sports and society. Athletes experiment while pundits point fingers, former players name names, and fans and observers express their contempt for some of the greatest players ever to take the field. All are operating with little real knowledge of the situation. In The Juice, Will Carroll, an acknowledged authority on baseball's medical problems, calls for a scientific, reasoned approach to the steroids problem. Shunning emotional judgments, he offers a wide-ranging investigation of the drugs, the athletes who use them, the scientific effects and side effects, the testing procedures, and whether drugs have had an impact on the game. He explores the grey area of legal supplements, reviews the law involved in the BALCO case, compares baseball's situation with that of the National Football League, and speculates on the next generation of performance enhancers that may well include gene therapy. In exclusive interviews he profiles the motivations and experiences of professional players, student athletes, drug creators, and those who advocate the legal use of steroids. Carroll has talked with hundreds of players, executives, owners, and experts. "I came to the process with an open mind and plenty of questions," he writes. "The issue of steroids is filled with complications. The characters are deep and interesting and flawed, even the good guys." Solutions are not as easy as they may appear. For a thoroughly rounded perspective on baseball's drug problems, The Juice is the most complete and authoritative book available. Will Carroll's column for Baseball Prospectus, "Under the Knife," has been called "essential reading" by Hall of Famer Peter Gammons. Based in Indianapolis, Mr. Carroll also hosts a weekly syndicated radio show. His first book, Saving the Pitcher, on the prevention of pitching injuries in modern baseball, has been lauded by doctors, trainers, and pitching coaches at all levels of the game. Book jacket.

Download or read book Kumba Africa written by Sampson Ejike Odum and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘KUMBA AFRICA’, is a compilation of African Short Stories written as fiction by Sampson Ejike Odum, nostalgically taking our memory back several thousands of years ago in Africa, reminding us about our past heritage. It digs deep into the traditional life style of the Africans of old, their beliefs, their leadership, their courage, their culture, their wars, their defeat and their victories long before the emergence of the white man on the soil of Africa. As a talented writer of rich resource and superior creativity, armed with in-depth knowledge of different cultures and traditions in Africa, the Author throws light on the rich cultural heritage of the people of Africa when civilization was yet unknown to the people. The book reminds the readers that the Africans of old kept their pride and still enjoyed their own lives. They celebrated victories when wars were won, enjoyed their New yam festivals and villages engaged themselves in seasonal wrestling contest etc; Early morning during harmattan season, they gathered firewood and made fire inside their small huts to hit up their bodies from the chilling cold of the harmattan. That was the Africa of old we will always remember. In Africa today, the story have changed. The people now enjoy civilized cultures made possible by the influence of the white man through his scientific and technological process. Yet there are some uncivilized places in Africa whose people haven’t tested or felt the impact of civilization. These people still maintain their ancient traditions and culture. In everything, we believe that days when people paraded barefooted in Africa to the swarmp to tap palm wine and fetch firewood from there farms are almost fading away. The huts are now gradually been replaced with houses built of blocks and beautiful roofs. Thanks to modern civilization. Donkeys and camels are no longer used for carrying heavy loads for merchants. They are now been replaced by heavy trucks and lorries. African traditional methods of healing are now been substituted by hospitals. In all these, I will always love and remember Africa, the home of my birth and must respect her cultures and traditions as an AFRICAN AUTHOR.
