The article is a fascinating read, but it significantly overstates the potential impact of American Needle on professional sports. Munson ignores the inherent bargaining power possessed by the players—their skills are a very scarce resource.

Whether there is an antitrust exemption or not, the ability of players to strike, the unavailability of suitable alternates, and the soaring operating costs of professional stadiums will continue to ensure that the players get a (perhaps more than) fair shake.
