Randy Moller goal calls.
TODAY:
-We discussed the Business of Spring Training SBJ article. The article talks about how spring training sites are feeling the effects of the recession with a decline in tourism. On a positive side, the World Baseball Classic will extend spring training, giving these sites more opportunities to play games & catch up on lost revenues.
-We discussed Chapter 5 in the textbook. The chapter talked about: the history of professional sports in this country, the factors that have affected the growth of professional sports, the unique aspects of professional sports, & the main revenue areas of professional sport.

HOMEWORK:
-Read the SBJ article: "Engage Hispanic Race Fans Through Speed, Success, Community" on page 14 of the February 9-5 edition.
