different scenario studying the self-serving bias. In a study that surveyed hockey players from different teams, they noted that the self-serving bias pointed in a negative direction to where the hockey players, instead of blaming others for the team’s failures, and taking credit for their success, they blamed themselves for the failure of the group, but took a limited amount of credit for successes that the team had. The players from the survey conveyed that they would take the blame for failure rather

Paying College Athletes For over a decade, there has been an ongoing debate for and against paying college athletes. Those in favor quickly point out the benefits to players. Those against this practice concentrate on the possible detriment to both the educational and athletic systems currently in place at institutions of higher learning. Merit can be found in both arguments; however, the changes that would be necessary to put the payment practice into place would take years to implement. Many

Besides the length of the throw, the shooting time also depends on speed ” (p. 5). The players were put through a series of three point shots. Using a ball that had internal monitors, data was monitored from the ball to a computer where the final statistics were tabulated. The data that collected was release time in seconds, entry angle

survey conducted by students of “National Institute of Physical Education” in Lleida, Spain, individual and collective defence practice is generally occupying less than 15 % of all training sessions (Wein, 2004). It is not surprising to see that the players who win individual awards at the end of every season is either a goal scoring machine or a midfield maestro.

Garner says he only suffered from a handful of diagnosed concussions, when looking back as his NFL career and talking to a concussion expert. He now believes that he has had at least a dozen concussions every season for his eleven season career (Becker). Some concussions are undetectable because most players play through them and do not show

If this player’s concussions were treated properly, he and his innocent girlfriend would likely still be alive today.
