Sports Economist
Anyone ever hear of such a thing? Just heard about it while watching the news and thought it was interesting. Wonder how an economist becomes a Sports Economist? I know that the General Manager for the Texas Rangers, a baseball team in Dallas, graduated with Public Economics from Cornell; he's doing a real good job. I always thought economists would be really good for a sports team such as risk analysis of a player, trades, drafts, etc. Just a curious thought.

I don't know one gets there, but Xavier Sala i Martin is currently the acting president of FC Barcelona (or has smth to do with FC Barcelona) and Sunit Gulati, another Columbia professor, is the president of the United States Soccer federation.

For what it's worth, I was looking at faculty profiles on the George Washington website last night and found one this one with a number of NFL-related papers:
