In this class, we will apply economic theory to the world of sports. A little analysis reveals that there is much more going on, for example, than huge dudes ramming into each other in really tight-fitting outfits (i.e. football). Should you go for it on the fourth down or punt? Is there really such a thing as home field advantage? Are the Chicago Cubs doomed forever? We will tackle such questions and discover how economics comes into play.
