My New Law Review Article on Social Psychology, Calamities, and Sports Law

A draft of my article Social Psychology, Calamities, and Sports Law, 42 Willamette Law Review __ (forthcoming, 2006) is now available for download on SSRN for free, right beneath the article abstract. I hope you give it a read. Through social psychology, the article addresses such topics as the future of the New Orleans Saints; how the fear of catastrophic weather influences where players want to play; natural disasters and franchise relocation; the NFL pat-down policy and stadium security; and communicable disease and restrictions on scouting and player contracts. If you have any thoughts, I would very much welcome them by e-mail (mmccann[at]mc.edu), particularly since the article is only in draft form. Thanks!
