    "Inside the Ownership of Professional Sports Teams"

    link

    I have been researching MLS season ticket numbers, and this (incredibly expensive) book supposedly has them. So what I would like a huge MLS fan to do is, check and see if your school library has the book, and then if they do please write down the season ticket numbers for MLS and get back to me. It may only be available on a cd. I know this is a huge longshot, but I really want to get this information. I would be so grateful. Thanks.

    Ok, I would prefer to have the data for the most current edition, but any are fine (even though I already have the numbers from the two years). Not sure if these have the current one or not.

    Here are some universities that appear to have the book:

    I will order the book. I have attendance figures with some other variables going up to 2002, I believe.


    Edit: before I order it, is there a more current version?

    Sounds like you need a librarian, er, information professional.

    Scaryice, check your e-mail.

    BTW, if anyone has any other burning questions, I can keep this CD-ROM for a while...

    Not much. It was pretty sh!t, actually... kind of like they just went and looked on some MLS web sites and called it good.

    No, more like economics and entrepreneurship....
    And yes, very nice place. Except the rents are higher here than in Berlin.
