Anthology looking for new ways to teach economics, sports or otherwise, does not impress our reviewer
There is a dire need for a comprehensive pedagogical resource both on diverse approaches to teaching sports economics and the use of sports to teach broader principles of economic concepts.

Haugen, finds some serious flaws in the book, but also successful attempts at providing productive pedagogical pointers.
