Why don't we have relegation in U.S. pro sports.

In this episode, Sports IQ explores why relegation exists in professional sports leagues outside the United States, like soccer's Premier League in England and the Bundesliga in Germany and the Swedish Elite League in hockey among others.

Here in the U.S., we have closed professional sports leagues, requiring consent of the other team's owners, an expansion bid and a LOT of money for a new team to join.

Anthony interviews Dr. Stefan Szymanski, a professor of sport management at the University of Michigan. Dr. Szymanski is an expert in the economics of sports and promotion and relegation.
