Modern American Football: Drivers of Change in the Professional Game (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798714158001)

To learn important facts and more specific information about the development, progress, and success of the National Football League as an organization and why and how it changed mostly during its 99-plus-years in existence, this book reveals things-circumstances, data, dates, events, games, institutions, people, and other historical internal and external matters-that transformed it and the sport in the short run and also long term. A few of these things, for example, were and continue to be the recruitment, entry, and performances of players from colleges and universities, competitive balance or degree of parity that exists among teams within and between the League's American and National Football Conferences, expansion of new franchises located in metropolitan areas of the United States, and economic realities of the League given the demographics, distribution, and wealth of their members' markets.As a result, Modern American Football provides answers to such questions, for example, as: What types of simple and complex relationships exist to measure and analyze performances of coaches and players and their National Football League teams? What has been the impact of free agency on players' salaries and changes of them? How different are the gate receipts, total revenues, and valuations of large, midsized, and small market teams? Why did some clubs decide to relocate from one site to another? Has the addition of new franchises been an important factor for conferences in the league, and why? How did the National Football League Players Association transform the sport financially and in other ways? How has local, state, and federal governments affected the business and economics of professional football?
