- <p>Besides confirming the existence of home advantage (HA) in professional sports competition, this work intends to breakdown HA into sub-components and trace the specific sources of HA. Using scoring performance data from ESPN FC, we fit a Bayesian multilevel-nested model to the parameters in our proposed hierarchical model of HA, allowing information obtained from the season level to inform the inferences about scoring capabilities at the upper team, league, and sport levels. Our analysis reveals that much of HA is attributed to the nature of the sport of interest as well as teams playing the sport. The results seem to endorse the view that home advantage is mainly characteristic of the sport and participating teams, while league grouping can be safely ignored as a credible contributing source. Finally, we discuss the implications of our proposed two-source model of HA for future research at the inter-sport level.</p>

+ <p>This article illustrates an innovative approach of presenting operations management concepts in the first class in an unorthodox and yet entertaining way. The exercise is centered around an episode of the popular sitcom Big Bang Theory. From our experiences of implementing it in the past three semesters, we found that it has been an effective way of introducing operations management concepts to students in their first undergraduate OM class. Using figures and facts from the sitcom, students can compute productivity measures and appreciate the holistic view of starting and growing a business venture.</p>
