Heading into this season, there were a lot of question marks surrounding the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Would quarterback Jameis Winston take a step forward in his second season as the Buccaneers' starter? What type of production would the Buccaneers get out running back Doug Martin, who they re-signed over the offseason to a five-year deal? Finally, could first-year head coach Dirk Koetter lead Tampa Bay to the playoffs?
The first article, “The Real New York Giants” by Rick Reilly is writing to readers that are worrying about the Giants’ next season. Only being six months after the 9/11 catastrophe, Reilley uses pathos to convey his message. He plays heavily on the reader’s emotions, his entire article about the lost heroes in the collapse of the twin towers with a tone of remorse and melancholy. First, he starts off with establishing the determination of the firemen. “We'll have a team if we only have 10 guys. We're playing,” was a quote from Mike Heffernan who had lost his brother on 9/11. Then he goes into vivid detail, describing the men who “ have a nasty case of the WTC cough” from “ inhaling dust, smoke, glass particles, asbestos and, indeed, microscopic remains of their fallen comrades.” He is referring to the many firemen that had to clean up the 9/11 wreckage, which took a lot longer than a couple of days.
Overall everyone in Deanna’s family has been very supportive throughout her cancer treatment, even her husband’s Green Bay Packer fans. The person who had the most psychosocial issues during her treatment is her husband Brett. From the beginning Brett is extremely nervous about it possibly being cancer. During the day of the diagnosis he is continuously calling to see if she has any news on the test results. After telling her husband she has cancer, she explains that her confident husband had a pale face, he didn’t know what to say and she believed that he was more shocked than she was. He was supportive when he asked if he should quit playing football so he could spend more time with her. Arthur Frank argues that “illness such as cancer is
You never really forget underdog stories. I still remember when the New York Giants went into super bowl XLII as under dogs to the 16-0 New England Patriots. The New York Giants where 12 point under dogs but, they came out victorious because they had more fight and determination to win. That win was one of the biggest upsets in sports history. The same can be said about Redwood City’s team. They knew they weren’t the best team out there but they knew they the will and attitude to win. The Redwood City team did what no other team did and that was playing defense before the ball was put into play. They defend the whole court unlike most teams that only defend half the court. Lawrence of Arabia was another example of going the extra mile. He went
What is lost is not always easy to replace, and losses suffered are not always easy to overcome. Grief hangs heavily and normal life suddenly becomes hard to go through with the impact of recent events. Rick Reilly addresses this in his essay The Real New York Giants. His nostalgic and somber tone reflect the gravity of the situation, remembering his dear friends who were lost in the tragic event. In his essay The Real New York Giants, Rick Reilly uses imagery, rhetorical questions, and diction to convey the impact of loss on people and how they recover and return to their daily lives without the familiar presence of people they lost.
Regarding the state of labor relations, many players wish they could say that they are positive. "Labor relations is in dire straits, obviously. And I'm sure everyone's got a finger to point, and everybody's got a person to blame" Winston states.
On September 8th 2014 NFL team, Baltimore Ravens terminated Ray Rice’s contract after he was captured via elevator surveillance assaulting his then fiancée, now wife in February. The video outraged the nation and the public questioned NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s knowledge of the entire situation. In turn, the NFL gave him the light punishment of a two game suspension. Many people argued that although Goodell previously issued much heavier fines for issues such as substance abuse (Elliot, 2014).
It's not easy to replace a legend. Ask Brock Osweiler, the backup quarterback for the Denver Broncos, behind Peyton Manning for the last three-and-one-half years. The former Arizona State quarterback has waited while Manning has continued to set records, become the all-time leader in yards passing, beating the record of Brett Favre, of 71,838, and set the record for the most touchdown passes, 509. He has also led his team to the playoffs every year and a Super Bowl loss. Does Osweiler have what it takes to replace Manning when he retires, or can't come back from injury? Time will tell, but he will start his first NFL game on Sunday, November 22, against the Chicago Bears, for the injured Manning.
1. Discuss the factors that have resulted in the NFL becoming “America’s Game” and the
Many players will not follow the rules until they can relate to them. Someone will need to be brought in to talk to the players about what happens when they do not tackle correctly; serious injury can be caused to not only the player who is tackling, but also to the person that is getting tackled. The story of a football player named Inky Johnson helps describe the heartbreaking effects football injuries can have on players. Johnson’s mother gave birth to him when she was only fifteen years old. Johnson grew up in a poor home with eight other siblings, but he did not let that stop him from pursuing his dreams (Inky Johnson). Johnson, from a young age, told his older cousin that he wanted to play in the NFL. The two worked at it for years by running from light pole to light pole until a coach came to the street and signed the two up for organized sports. Johnson fought off injuries his whole high school career and received a scholarship to the University of Tennessee (Inky Johnson). Things were going well until it came to the third game of his junior year when he came up to hit someone and he blacked out and fell to the ground. Johnson´s teammates tried to get him to get up but he was unable to move. Johnson severely damaged his right arm, tearing all of his nerves (Inky Johnson). Now he lives with a paralyzed arm. This would be the end of Inky Johnson´s chase of his NFL dream on the football field. Kids do not think about this happening to them, they just play the game, but

Within any organization the elements of leadership, motivation, and workforce commitment are inextricably meshed with the effectiveness of communication. Organizations develop their respective cultures through communication among leadership and with all employees, regarding their mission, values, and goals (Robbins & Judge, 2007). Formal and informal leaders within organizations use communication to motivate others, and to create loyal and trustworthy employees. Such an organization is Southwest Airlines, whose company culture has been characterized over the years by unique leadership and communications styles (Schnoberger, 1992).
