Notes

  • -  Website for dataset created July 3, 2012.
  • -  "I began the collection offered here in 1982 when Roger Noll hired me as a graduate student to work on Selig v. US. To the best of my knowledge and ability, they are the most complete data on the economics and business of U.S. pro sports leagues in existence. I say that so that everybody will feel challenged to prove me wrong and add to the data (as many of you already have!)."
