Super Bowl LI
Football uses a lot of mathematics, just from watching a game I can realize which are the strategies each team uses and the mathematical models they create to calculate at which point they need to be so they can score a touchdown, the time that passes, how they keep track of the score, and how many yards they are away from scoring a touchdown, to know all that information you need to use the math’s. For starters, the football field is a rectangular shape that is divided into several yards, each of these yards measuring a certain amount, that helps keep track of each team´s score and helps them plan their next move, each team has its own strategies and its own calculations they make so they can know and visualize how far away they are from scoring or from which point they need to pass the ball or catch the ball so they can score.

Using these numbers, they can then create several mathematical models that then are used for statistical comparison of each of the players. Football uses statistics of everything like how many passes or catches a player makes. Then some of the coaches of the different teams use these statistics to compare each of the achievements the player makes. Realizing that there is the use of mathematics in everything like a simple and fun football game, shows me that you can calculate a lot of things and get statistics from them, these can help me in my math course and during my life because the use of statistics and the information I can get can make me know the probabilities of things happening or like the coaches in the teams that use them to compare things, I can use them for that too. I should use statistics more in my life when they can apply because they can make a difference in how I see things and make my life easier if I know what are the probabilities of an event happening, even if I am trying to choose between several things, I can get statistics to see which one is better or which one is the best option
In a commercial shown this past Sunday during the super bowl featured what is described as a political statement. Although, the owner of the company 84 Lumber which produced this commercial is saying otherwise. Making the statement “My intent was to show that through struggles we will do anything we possibly can to make the world a better place for our children,” 84 Lumber’s CEO Maggie Hardy Magerko said. While she had said, many people are of course taking to social media to express either love or hate towards the company. Some even going as far as to cancel orders with 84 Lumber, because of the commercial. Nonetheless, the commercial aired during the super bowl but was only 90 seconds long and ended
In the article San Francisco nudges homeless people away from super bowl fan village by Alison Vekshin, Bloomberg News, adapted by Newsela staff 01.28.15, it infers us about the upcoming gatherings or parties due to this years Super Bowl which will infact be held here in the state of California. In this article it also infers to the audience or me specifically about how San Francisco California is not only one of the hottest spots in America right now due to its upcoming event(s) but they also tell us about the wide range of homeless people that live in this area. Unfortunately since the Super Bowl is being held in this area, as January 30th they have started to begin placing these homeless individuals in other cities hoping that they draw
The multi-billion dollar industry that is the National Football League (NFL), is on the losing side of the constant Tug-of-War between self-interest and mutuality of interest. For decades, the NFL’s only concern was ensuring high revenue and return of profit with little social responsibility. Due to social media and viral videos, however, social responsibility has become a focal point in mass media. Roger Goodell, the Commissioner of the NFL, knows this all too well. His undefined authorities overseeing the NFL, particularly pertaining to player “conduct issues”, currently have him under fire. Recently dubbed “The Enforcer” in 2012 by Time Magazine, Roger Goodell has been praised for his
The NFL’s Conference Championship games kickoff this weekend as the top two seeds in each conference square off. The New England Patriots will be in Denver this weekend for a matchup with the Broncos for the AFC Championship, while the Arizona Cardinals travel to Charlotte, N.C. for a meeting with the Carolina Panthers this Sunday. The winner of each matchup will advance to Super Bowl 50, which could be one of the most epic in NFL history. Below is a preview of the 2015-16 NFL Conference Championship games.
Math calculates what a team is going to trade for a pick, it is used to draft a specific player and the statistics that they had in college. A scout looks at the production of a player, a coach looks at the execution of a player, and then the GM looks at how much a player is worth and if they are worth a specific draft pick (Wilner 2015). There is no specific equation that can be used to determine how much a certain draft pick is worth but looking through past draft trades can only benefit a future trade. Using mathematics in the NFL Draft plays a more significant role than just an average viewer realizes. Anyone from a scout, to the coach, to the GM, to the players is affected by the NFL Draft and the choices that are made in it, that is why using math and using it the correct way it important. Math is used in every aspect of everyone’s life and affects the way people think and act, it is what makes society run
With the NFL playoffs on the horizon, the Minnesota Vikings are flying high with the NFC North division title and one of the best records in the NFC. With everything is going right at quarterback, the team will have to make an important decision involving Case Keenum, Sam Bradford and Teddy Bridgewater come to the off-season. With all 3 quarterbacks set to be free agents, which of them will stay longer than this season?
The Superbowl Commercial I thought was good was the one with Antman and the Hulk. In this commercial Antman had a mini coke and the Hulk was chasing Antman for it. They both stopped on a buildings roof and the Hulk told Antman that he wanted it. Antman gave the mini coke to the Hulk and he could not get it open because his fingers were to big. Antman jumped onto the coke and opened it for him.
Superdome Sports is a very successful organization. Some of its strengths include providing a great product to children and families. The general manager runs very successful camps during the summer, and classes for all different ages during the other seasons. Pete will accommodate a family in any way he can and work extremely hard to make the camps well worth their money. The organization is also very good at scheduling different events, programs, and camps throughout the entire year.
Only two cities can boast that they have had the unique honor of hosting 10 Super Bowls. However, of those two cities, the difference between New Orleans and Miami is that New Orleans has come back from insurmountable odds to rebuild and return to the caliber of city that can host a Super Bowl. While many have reaped the benefits of being the host city, none has squeezed the most out of the opportunity the way New Orleans has. From the economic boost to the infrastructure overload necessary to obtain a bid, New Orleans stands alone in that it came back from a natural disaster and got the most out of hosting the Super Bowl. Recently, New Orleans hosted the Super Bowl in 2013, three years after the Saints won Super Bowl XLIV, and also seven years after Hurricane Katrina ravaged the gulf coast. I will outline the various effects of being host to the world’s greatest single day of sport, specifically those factors that have made the city of New Orleans and the Super Bowl so intertwined after their most recent bid.
Football involves careful planning as well as strategic thinking. Players involved in this particular sport must have the ability to retain the information given in order to effectively execute each play given. Football is played in a stadium on fake grass often referred to as turf. Football also have referees. Their jobs are to continuously follow the game and to be present at each down.
The Superbowl commercial that I decided was good was the drinking and driving commercial with Helen Mirren. I think that this is a good commercial because it reminds us about the responsibilities of drinking and getting drunk. This commercial was made by Budweiser and was trying to warn viewers about drinking and driving. Helen Mirren was sitting in at a bar booth with a Budweiser on the table and a burger next to it,she started talking about how you shouldn't drink and drive also how others will thank you for not making such a dumb-founded decision. Helen Mirren also says that if you do make that decision that you're so dumb that when you or if you donate your brain to science that they'll send it back. Be responsible while drinking don't
The basic rules are the most important part of every game, but are extra important in football. Every drive for the offense will start with the opposing team kicking the ball off. If the ball is kicked out of the back of the end zone, that will result in a touchback, which means the offense starts on their own 20-yard line. A football field is 100 yards long with two end zones on each end. Each half you have what is considered your end zone which your defense will try to keep the other team’s offense from scoring touchdowns or field goals in. A touchdown is 6 points plus an extra point kick that is one point or a two-point conversion that are rarer and harder to convert. A field goal can be kicked at any point on offense is 3 points. So if you are on your own side of the 50-yard line, you would say you are on your own 20, 25, 30, ect. If you have the ball on you own 20-yard line it would be pretty difficult to make it 80 yards in the 4 plays you are given. That’s why you can earn what is called a first down every 10 yards. An offense has four plays to gain 10 yards to get a first down or the ball is turned over on downs, which means the other team will receive
4. Lastly, we want to found out whether game statistics such as game scored by team, number of yard , passes and passing touch down etc. help determine the team to get into the final or not.
I would add a chart of the amount of immigrants contribute to science. I would add this to show how immigrants help america. compared to what some think. this article is also about how this super bowl ad sparked a debate about immigration. "You have to make sure you're reflecting what is going on in the world today." said Steve Radick said. Adding that chart it would reflect on what is going on in modern science.
