Sports Guy: NorCal vs. SoCal: Why the Bitter Rivalry With Sports? - Daily Nexus Online The truth of the matter is that the fans in attendance at the Staples Center during Clippers games had the fortune of getting the box seats from some rich but athletically disinterested car dealer. I am ashamed to admit it, but the words Los Angeles and professional sports go hand-in-hand with bandwagon. I am fascinated by the bitter athletic rivalry at UCSB between students originating from northern and southern California. www.ucsbdailynexus.com /print_article.php?a=3162   (482 words)

Wry ruminations from UT's most respected sports writer - The Daily Texan - Opinion Of course, many level-headed students voiced their agreement of a private club exercising its private rights, and the lackluster showing at Martha Burk's protest of the Masters (there were more journalists in attendance than protesters) went a long way in proving my point. Jason Hunter and Ryan Pittman (this year's editor and managing editor) finally noticed that the best sports college in the country deserves to have the most extensive sports coverage in the country. \n\nIn my three years of writing sports for The Daily Indoctrination, the one story that sticks out in my mind is the one story that you never had the chance to read. www.dailytexanonline.com /news/2003/05/06/Opinion/Wry-Ruminations.From.Uts.Most.Respected.Sports.Writer-493882.shtml   (482 words)

Hamm, comrades end amazing era tonight - Other Sports - MSNBC.com Along the way, the three have been part of a team that has become iconographic for women’s sports in general and is credited as an inspiration for young women as well as high-profile athletes everywhere. U.S. Soccer continues to finance the women’s program at a loss and has seen attendance plummet for national team exhibition matches.  WUSA  the now defunct women’s pro league  was an unmitigated business disaster, dying on the eve of the 2003 Women’s World Cup.

Taxpayers Prop Up Sports Profits Although overall professional sports attendance had been increasing in recent years, much of this gain was spurred by added teams and the novelty effect of new parks and arenas attracting the curious. Professional sports teams playing in new stadiums, so the argument goes, create lots of new jobs, and these new workers will create even more jobs as they spend their sports-related paychecks around town. Although the economic impact of a professional sports team on a community appears to be negligible, or worse, team owners have nonetheless managed to win far more concessions from communities than they have lost. www.heritage.org /Press/Commentary/ed073002.cfm   (1960 words)

New York Yankees - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Yankees are only the third franchise in sports history to draw over 4 million in regular season attendance at their own ballpark (the others being the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays with 4,057,947 and the 1993 Colorado Rockies with 4,483,350).
