For those who are not familiar, Josh is a economics professor. But he is not the boring kind that teaches students how to use lagrange multipliers in a constrained maximization problem, or how to calculate the marginal rate of substitution, or how to take second order conditions to make sure that you are maximizing instead of minimizing. Instead he teaches students the cool side of economics, like how to set ticket prices to a baseball game, why basketball players are paid so much, and why college football doesn't have a playoff.
So if you are interested in learning more about what Josh does, he has started a blog detailing some interesting topics in sports. Check it out
