An excellent and enthralling economic insight! A must have.
The movement of the text through the reasoning of why teams relocate and the economic impact they inflict on their stomping grounds is an enjoyable and wonderful read for armchair economists and sports enthusiasts.

What a book!!
The section describing the econometric model which can be used to determine the next baseball expansion team was fascinating. I can't believe that Akron, Ohio will be a major league city soon!
