Title

Field of Schemes

Description

A long-suffering Cleveland sports fan, Joanna Cagan (KAY-gan) has umpired little-league baseball, been denied access to the Syracuse lockerroom for postgame interviews, and judged a pageant for male cover models. After witnessing one too many sports swindles, Joanna Cagan is now recuperating as a teacher in New York City.

Neil deMause (de-MOSS) is a native New Yorker who has written for the Village Voice sports section, New York Newsday, SportsJones, the Guardian Newsweekly, and even a few publications that haven't since gone out of business. In addition to maintaining the Field of Schemes website, he is editor and publisher of the zine HERE: The Stories Behind Where You Are. He went to his first baseball game at the age of four, though it wasn't until age five that he learned to write "BB" for a walk instead of "W" on his scorecard.

Fieldofschemes.com is the companion website to Field of Schemes: How the Great Stadium Swindle Turns Public Money Into Private Profit, by Joanna Cagan and Neil deMause. Since 1998, we have been casting a critical eye on the roughly $2 billion a year in public subsidies that go toward building new pro sports facilities.
