...Mylon Richard Mr. Joubert English 101G1 16 October 2012 Fans in the Stands Professional sports have become one of the most popular industries in the world today. The media spends billions of dollars on advertisements with billboards, commercial, and merchandise. Teams spend millions of dollars on professional athletes all for one reason, the fans because if the fans are happy then the owners are happy. The fans ticket sales and merchandise purchases are what keeps all the sport teams around and prevents professional athletes from losing their jobs. Fans are the most crucial part of any franchise. There are three types of fans in the sports world, average fans, fanatics, and fair-weather fans. A diehard’s favorite team is basically their second religion. The diehard fan would be the one who knows the team like the back of their hand. They are the persons that know the name, number, position, and maybe the height and weight of every play on the field for their team. They could win an argument against the world’s greatest lawyer, being that the argument is about their team. They will wear their team’s colors with great pride whether the team is winning or losing. They are so dedicated to their team to point of sitting through a hurricane, blizzard, or the blazing heat just because of their love for the team. Diehards are the one fan that bought their season ticket passes for the next season five years in advance to make sure they get seats with the best view. They make time...

...There are three types of sports fans — which one are you? THE CASUAL FAN: Casual-Fans are fans who aren't particularly into their fandom. They enjoy it, know some trivia, see some movies, have some stuff. Casual-Fans are more laid back. This is probably most of my friends. They have their favorite sports teams but they don’t make the effort to watch every game. They know the name of the key players on the roster but that’s it. When the game is on, they’ll watch it but if something else is interesting on TV, they’ll go to that channel instead. These kinds of fans won’t know every single rule for the game but they understand how the sport is played. These fans aren’t bandwagoners because they actually know things about the team and go to games. Sports is great to them, but there are other things that occupy their free times most often. THE REAL FAN I would say this fits me perfectly. I am all of the above except I do make an effort to watch all the games and I do know what’s going on around the league. I have an extensive knowledge of the team roster and standings. The team and league history can be filed in my memory bank without any problem. I spend money on merchandise, tickets often and when friends want to talk sports, they usually come to me. There is a part of my life that is about the sport and when given the option to do something, sports usually is my first choice. THE CRAZY FAN This is the fan that I don’t think I can ever be. They go to almost every game...

...Types of Fans A fan is a person who is fond of a certain thing, person, food, sports or any such things. N my opinion a fan is divided in three categories: - part time fans, die hard fans and optimistic fan. Let me explain this concept using a soccer match. A part time fan is one who does not have any particular team as his favorite, but he just enjoys watching the game as he is more overwhelmed by the sport than the players. Part time fans could also be people who follow a sport they like based on their availability. In the sense they follow a team or a sport based on their availability and convenience and don’t necessarily go to the stadium to watch their team play. Also, they might watch soccer if there’s nothing else that is interesting being played on television. Die-hard fans are like patriots and they patronize associating with a team. They believe their loyalties lie in speaking only good about a team and they would go against any person who badmouths a team they support. These die hard fans wear the sports jerseys of their favorite teams, make time to watch their favorite match at any cost, even if it means watching the match at late night and odd hours. A die-hard fan feels like the world is over when he sees his team loosing or not performing well. A die-hard fan is aggressive about the reputation of his team and can go to great lengths to support and defend the team he likes gravely. An optimistic fan is one who always speaks well about his team, even the team...

...Punishment for Players Athletes are people who are looked up to all across the world. They play sports that many people watch and enjoy. Athletes are role models for many people. Sometimes athletes take actions in their personal life that hurt their team and fans and get away with it because they are famous. Many people have different viewpoints on this discussion. Sometimes some athletes are punished while others who do the same crime are not. All Athletes’ actions off the field should affect their position within a sports team. Athletes represent a team.

This topic usually occurs in baseball but in recent discoveries, many football players are condemned for doping. Vast names in sports such as: Ray Lewis, Alex Rodriguez, and Christian Laettner were all suspended by their respected leagues for doping. Steroids should be banned in professional sports today because they give athletes unfair advantages, they’re horrible to the athletes’ body, and there can be severe side effects. There are copious types of steroids that athletes use. “The most common type of steroids that athletes use are anabolic steroids, or synthetic versions of the male hormone, testosterone” (Quinn).

...But depending on peoples types of personality they would react in their own way. My family and I did not start a fight between any of them but we also did not just sit there and take the rude comments, so we would say our piece of mind sometimes and now that may have not been the smartest thing but that is how we act in situations like this and that relates to our personality. Sporting events will bring a lot of people together but will also cause feuds between others that are not the fans of the same sports team as them and again which brings me back to personality. My experience at the hockey game made me come to realize that with reading this chapter in the text book, people will act in different ways based on the contribute factors and also with the “feeling, thinking, and behaving” because the way peoples personalities are depend on their mental life, emotional experiences, and social...

...Football fans The person who thinks, talks about and is oriented towards sports even when [the fan] is not actually observing, or reading, or listening to an account of a specific sports event.(Spinrad ,1981) A fan is a person who is passionately devoted to something such as a sports-team, band or entertainer. Fans of a sport or thing constitute a fan-base or fandom (Wiki-Answers). Most of us enjoys going to sporting events and no matter what the event is, there are excitements associated with these events and more so thinking that our team will win and if they win we go home happily and if it loses we get somehow upset or sad. Despite all this, we have different categories of sports fan in our societies and everyone who follows sports falls in one of these categories. The categories include: Diehard fans - no matter how the team that they are supporting does, they will always support it and won’t miss any game or news at all about their team. They knows every player on the roster, position they play, and uniform number. Casual fans – these are averaged or below average followers of their team. They stick and follow their teams, but not to the extent of following every game. Mostly they know a few star players. Fair-weather fans – these are the one that follow and cheer for their teams only when they become successful. They have no loyalty to their teams when they are in down period experience.

There are numerous types of mixed martial arts including boxing, wrestling, kickboxing, karate, and taekwondo. II. General Environmental Analysis a. Technology Mixed martial arts have been around for a long time. It was first introduced in the original Olympic Games in Athens. In the beginning, fighters used a combination of Hellenic boxing a wrestling to fight. They could use any of their abilities until they had the other opponent knocked unconscious or surrender. There were no rules or guidelines to the fighting; it was all or nothing. Different combat sports evolved over the years into different areas of the world. This made the popularity of pakration decline. As time went on, rules and regulations were developed for the fighters and the technological advances helped this sport take off. b. Demographics This industry is mainly viewed by males, although some females are also interested in the industry. From personal experience, males enjoy watching a fight more than females do.

...Football in America by Jeannie Ray SPM/210 - SOCIO-CULTURAL ELMNTS OF SPORT: PLAYING WELL W/OTHERS DR DION DALY August 6, 2011 Football In America American football has a long legacy in American History. It can be traced back centuries to early European cutures, influenced through the years by multiple people, changed the rules and has become a National phenomenon for Americans. American football is over 100 years old and still going strong. It has inspired songs, movies and motivated individuals to great heights in their careers and lives. American football originated with its earlier form of play that derived from a variation of the sport Rugby in 1892. There are mentions of Native Americans playing ball games but, modern American football originates in traditional ball games played at villages and schools in Europe dating many centuries before America was settled by Europeans. Reports of early settlers at Jamestown, Virginia playing games with inflated balls in the early 17th century have been noted in history also. American football is the result of several major divergences from its earlier form of rugby. The introduction of the line of scrimmage and down-and- distance are among the first major changes of the game Rugby to its conversion to American football by Walter Camp. Walter Camp is considered as the father of football. The changes that he incorporated into collegiate football became dominant in the United...

Steroids have caused a rift between who should or shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame because it helped them get a competitive boost with the use of an injection or cream, while others played naturally and legally. While I believe that steroids have its advantages in athletes, it is just another way athletes can gain a competitive boost. If steroids were to be legalized, all athletes would have the chance to compete at the same level, but in a much higher and competitive environment. The stadiums would be more electric and games would be more exciting for the fans to enjoy....
