...win a state championship. The team has the skills and also has many great athletes as well as other schools do. The thing that other schools have is strength and faster people on their team. I have come up with the greatest solution that will make Saline football players and fans go crazy. The plan will come into effect starting now. By starting the taking of the steroids now, the players will be ready go by next august in their first game. The summer conditionings for football and all the lifting they do just don’t seem to pay off when season comes. During the summer they lift really hard, run a lot, and players work on their skills. When it comes game time in August, Saline thinks they are a step ahead of the other team on the field, but when the opponent steps on the field Saline becomes scared. The players become scared because they are really small compared to the opponents. Therefore, the other team has an advantage because they are a lot stronger. Steroids are the answer for the Saline football program. The program will do a fundraising event in which the team will earn a lot of money that will pay for all the steroids. Every Saline football player in the high school will start to take these steroids. Every player will go to a workout before school and receive one shot of this powerful drug. This drug will...

...certain question that may be used to determine who has what card. Such questions include: Do you see two or more players whose cards sum to the same value?; How many 7s do you see?; or Of the four even numbers, how many different even numbers do you see?. Each player draws a question card until one has figured out what three cards they have attached to their head. I will use the process of elimination to determine which three cards I have. To determine which cards I possess, I need to look at my fellow players cards. I will first rely on Andy’s question card. He was asked if there are two or more players whose cards sum to the same value and he replied yes. I will add each of Belle’s cards together to get the sum and then I will add each of Carol’s cards to get the sum. After I determine each player’s card value, I will be able to tell which player’s cards have the same value. Next, I will use Belle’s question card. She was asked, “Of the five odd numbers, how many different Odd numbers do you see?” She replies, “All of them.” Belle only sees the odd cards, 1, 3, and 7 from Andy and Carol. Because of this, I can determine the first two cards that I have. To determine the last card, I will first find the sum of the two cards that I do know. Finding the sum will help to inform me if I am one the players that has cards containing the same value as the other player. Finally after finding the sum, I will take the two cards I know I have and subtract each from the sum. Doing so...

...Athletes are treated as celebrities in American society and idolized by young athletes. The kids who see what their favorite player is doing through the media also are being influenced by them. The example that professional athletes set is very important because they looked up to. The example that many athletes set is unfortunately a negative one. Most people think that athletes make too much money but there are those that believe they are paid fairly. The enormous amount of money that professional athletes receive is having a negative effect on kids today. Athletes should make less money to play a game because the huge contracts that they receive give them power. They are concerned with making money and not the example that they are creating for today’s youth. Professional players feel that they earn every dollar of the millions they make every year to play a game. Those who think that players are paid fairly in professional sports argue that since athletes make so much money for their teams they should compensated accordingly. According to Forbes magazine "The average NFL team is worth $957 million" (Forbes, 2012). Teams generate large profits and as a result can afford to pay athletes large salaries. The past NFL season, players and team owners tried to come to an agreement before the season. According to Pete Prisco, a senior writer for CBS Sports "The players and owners can talk all they want about health issues, playing 18 games and any other issue thrown into these talks, but...

...world and the number of players is nearing one billion. No one knows exactly why volleyball has such a huge following outside the United States but one thing is for certain: in the over 100 years of its existence, volleyball has gone through some dramatic changes. Changes made for the love of volleyball and its expansion as a popular sport. Volleyball, first known as mintonette, found its beginning in 1895. William G. Morgan, an instructor at a Young Men's Christian Association, developed a sport for young businessmen to keep in shape yet not be as physically demanding as another new sport, basketball. It was first played with a tennis net raised to a height of 6 and 1/2 feet off the floor and combined many of the rules of baseball, tennis, handball and basketball. The Basic Rules and Regulations of Volleyball, The server must serve from behind the restraining until after contact. Ball may be served underhand or overhand.

...comments in games towards arab players, every team involves arab players in israel but Beitar is the only team who never had an Arab player play for them. The owner Arkadi Gaydamak decieded to sign to Chechnyan players which were Muslim to change the view of the club and make a difference, some of the fans disagreed on the move and protested against it stating Beitar will stay "pure" forever and that the team is for the fans. The two players Dzhabril Kadiyev and Zaur Sadayev are muslim but are not arab, and actually look more european then Beitar Jerusalem players. Most of the fans are not against this move at all as long as the players help boost the club, those are just a few fans who are ruinning it for the whole team. Should the team break a tradition of 70 years without muslim or arab players , or listen to the fans which are actually the team and not have them on the team. The same team the players came from has in Isareli player Zeev Haimovich which was jewish, and there wasnt a big issue about it. The two chechnyan players arrived to the team and were booed at training and the owner of the club was cursed by the fans including the coach. FIFA the organization of soccer/football is against any type of racism and the new motto is to kick racism out of the fields, sport is supposed to bring us together, we are all human beings. The team lost their last match and Beitars own fans were cheering and for the loss just because of the two muslim players which didnt even have their...

...6, 2013 The name of this guessing game is Guess Your Card. The purpose of this project is to employ various logical methods to figure out which cards each player possesses. The game is completed and won by the first player to correctly state what card he or she has. In this particular game setup there are 4 players, Andy, Belle, Carol and Myself. Each player picks 3 cards without looking at them, cards ranging from 1 thru 9. Andy has the cards 1, 5, and 7. Belle has the cards 5, 4, and 7. Carol has the cards 2, 4, and 6. As of right know I do not know what numbers I have in my possession. Andy draws the question card, “Do you see two (2) or more players whose cards sum to the same value?” He answers, “Yes.” Next Belle draws the question card, “Of the five (5) odd numbers, how many different odd numbers do you see?” She answers, “All of them.” Andy suddenly speaks up. "I know what I have," he says. "I have a 1, a 5, and a 7." To figure out what numbers I have in my possession, I will use the process of elimination. I know the numbers of the other players, and information given by the other players I can solve the answer of what are my card numbers. To first solve this problem, I remember that Andy said that he saw two (2) or more players whose cards sum to the same value. So knowing this I know that 2 of the players’ numbers will add up to the same sum. So I add both Belle and Carol card numbers individually and find out that their sums are different. The information gained...

...sports the Cowboys have a franchise that tops the list as on e of the most successful sport franchises in all of sports. One of the most common situations in sports is a franchise losing money. It happens many times when the payroll and other expenses exceed the income from the various revenue sources available to the team. The Cowboys make sound decisions when it comes to player contracts. However if they were to splurge and go get an expensive free agent such as Peyton Manning it could put them over their budget. This could mean they wont have the capital to spend for other positions meaning their team might be weaker. To stay within budget the Cowboys might be obligated to adjust certain areas. These areas might be to cut certain nonperforming players who take up a lot of money. This happens many times during the NFL season and offseason. Another move might be to cut back marketing or to cut back on perks for the players. All of these decisions will have consequences outside of merely saving money and will affect the team in other ways. For example if the players perks are cut back then these players will be reluctant to sign back with the team and they will tell other free agents to consider the same. If the marketing is cut back then the reach of the organization will be hindered and revenue from tickets and other things will suffer. The Cowboys operate in a large market in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. This area is one of the largest and fastest growing markets in the United...

...are three areas that the players association did not agree with the expenses allocated by the owners of the team. These areas are the Roster depreciation, the player’s compensation and related-party operations (specially the stadium costs). In the case of the Roaster depreciation, the owners consider a depreciation of the amount the roaster was worth at the time of purchase, they spread the depreciation linearly over six years with a value of two million per year. However, this value is not a fix value. The players feel that if anything the roster can appreciate with experience. This value should not be included because the roaster can appreciate or depreciate over time with continues trades and scouting, or injures and retirements; the value is shown in the yearly roaster value (salaries). In terms of the deferred compensation, this should not be included also. Since the players are not being paid during the year and it can be proved that the owners are not setting this money aside either. These payments should be expense at the moment of payment to the player. Also for the signing bonuses, the owners are registering the expense as incurred. However the signing bonus should be amortized over the contract life of the player since they are providing benefits during their contracts. About the players that no longer on the current roster and are still being paid, the expense should be accounted for when it is paid, not a reserve since some players can be picked up by other...

...takeaway would be a few management lessons for discerning corporate managers. In fact, one can cull out many different lessons from the way South Africa delivered a faultless, snafu-free pageant spread over 30 days and many locations. However, this article focuses on the management principles reiterated by the actual game of football played out during the FIFA 2010 matches. The most interesting aspect of the 60-odd matches played was the near uniformity in the style of playing, the techniques used and the strategies adopted. In other words the basic fare has been standardised. This is the result of almost all football players playing for clubs all over the world. This helps the players to not only learn and adopt the best playing techniques of world-class players but also get an in-depth feel for each other's strengths and weaknesses. Many of these players originate from the countries with little track record in this game. When they return to their country teams, they transfer this technology and, in the process, enhance its standards. In short, globalisation has shown its potential of being a great leveller and this process should be embraced in every area of human endeavour be it sport, commerce or technology. Two groups Like in football, the corporate world is divided into two groups. The first comprise companies who maybe called “incumbents” and who dominate their respective markets – usually the top three according to Prof. Jagdish Sheth of Emory University. The second...

All Players selected in the A-Grade team are required to have their fees PAID IN FULL before taking the field. On payment of the full amount, players will receive their player's pass. II. It is club policy that a player playing in any other grade except A Grade must have paid a minimum of $100.00 towards their playing fees before they take the field. Failure to do so, subject to relaxation by the Club in special circumstances, will mean you will not be eligible to play. Once $100 has been paid, a player's pass for Mike Carney Toyota Park will be issued. III. The Club understands that some players are not able to play for the whole year and on a case by case basis, the club is more than willing to negotiate an appropriate playing fee for the year. Please approach one of the Club’s executive if this applies to your situation. B. Players commencing throughout the season I. The full amount must be paid within 4 weeks of the player’s first game to continue to be eligible for selection in any grade. II.

...Managements Role in Players Being Violent Jennifer Grant BUS/ December 3, 2012 Dr. David Snow Managements Role in Players Being Violent When sports first started up they were meant to be something fun, to relieve stress, and teach youth about working hard, time management, teamwork, and to build character (Champion, Ruddell, & Thornton, 2012). Over the years, sports have gotten more and more competitive. Sports should have a positive impact on our community and serve as entertainment. If entertainment to our society is violence and causing harm to others then we are living in a messed up world. Management plays a major role in this violence by either being to tranquil in how they handle violence or even if they are encouraging the violence. When I was growing up the sports I participated in taught me about sportsmanship, character, being a good loser and winner, showing respect to others, teamwork, hard work, time management, social skills and more. My coaches played a big part in that, they made sure that we played fairly, and always played with sportsmanship. The coaches that I played under were great role models and winning did not mean anything if we didn’t do it the right way. In high school, we made it to the final four twice, won district all four years, were regional runner-ups twice and won regionals twice. We were very successful and at no point was violence being encouraged, and if there was any bad sportsmanship or violence...

...opportunities to the other team. Also, if the player has an open lane and decides a three pointer I am going to let them know to not shoot that shot again. Always take the easier shot. I do believe this is a good strategy to start the 4th quarter with but I would change it up a tad bit. By playing 3/4 court man to man defense you are pressuring the offense but also speeding up their play. I would like the offense to take the ball up the court and the defense play man to man once the team crossed half court. The defense can still apply pressure playing man to man from beyond half court Putting pressure on the offense requires a combination of both attitude and aggressiveness by the defenders. I want the team to stay aggressive. An effective pressuring defense will not allow offensive movement to take place easily. At the same time I want them to be aggressive but also smart. Not go for steals that will allow easy baskets. Every point must be earned and not allowed. On offense I would want a lot of passes to run time but when the shot is there take it. Take open smart shots and keep pressuring the other team. I would try to motivate my players and ensure the game is far from over. The second half is a whole new game. I would have the team come out and play full court man to man defense. Also I would have the team try and trap the offense to create turnovers and easy baskets. Trapping the ball is a defensive tactic where two defensive players double team the...
