About this ebook
In 1995, Cleveland Browns owner Art Modell, lured by the promise of a new stadium, shocked football fans with his decision to move to Baltimore. Now, one of the few journalists to cover the business of sports, the Baltimore Sun's Jon Morgan, chronicles the move, explains why more are to come-and why it matters.
In Glory For Sale, Morgan offers an in-depth view of the game's money side. He helps to understand the debate that's raging in city after city: Should the public pay for NFL stadiums, and, if so, how much?
Don't be left in the dark. Read Morgan's definitive Glory For Sale and travel inside the dramatic, fascinating business of professional football.
The Denver Post Raves: "Morgan Scores Big." The Baltimore City Paper praises Morgan's "compelling reporting." and The Cleveland Plain Dealer calls Glory For Sale our biggest book of the year.
