Personal Narrative: My Product IT Football

Improved Essays
The average NFL game lasts about three hours and twelve minutes due to the commercials, timeouts, and reviewing plays. These issues make it difficult to watch a three hours NFL game when the ball is only in play for eleven minutes. My solution to these issues is a microchip in the football that measures where the ball is on the field at all time. The tracking chip is called IT(Information Technology)Football, since the ball is being tracked it would be easier to determine first downs because when the ball crosses the first down marker a sensor will alarm letting the official know it’s a first down and not having to waste time and review a obvious play that is either a first down or touchdown. The microchip will make it easier to determine what is a catch in the NFL. For example when the …show more content…
My product IT Football is a tangible product and service that fulfills the needs of NFL organizations and it’s supporters. The NFL has an issue which is its viewership rating, which can be determine for many reasons such as the National anthem protest to the Presidential election. The main issue is NFL games take too long to watch and it is even worst if you attend a live game. My product will benefit the viewers and teams because the game will be played in less time and more efficiently. Price will be determined by profit margin, supply, demand and marketing strategy. If NFL games took less time and included more game action because of the footballs, the price will be a great value. Since the evolution of the internet we can use various ideas to promote IT Football. Since the NFL is huge on social media, for instance, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, it has become easier for people to see your product and if it’s good enough the product will speak for itself. My product will be placed on the football field(The Gridiron) and will help NFL games become faster and completed more

    In other words, Belichick finds both John Mara's and Roger Goodell's points preposterous because both Mara and Goodell say that NFL end zone cameras are too expensive, yet the NFL wastes so much money on having NFL games being played in foreign countries, and that the money used to have NFL games played in international countries could instead be used to pay for the cost of NFL end-zone replay cameras. The NFL has had a recent debate about having the 2017 NFL Pro Bowl in Brazil in order for the Pro Bowl game to gain more popularity and to spread the game of football to a unique international country. An NFL game is played in London once a year during the NFL regular season as well because England has shown a growing interest in football. Another counterargument made by Roger Goodell is that one of his goals is for the NFL to reach $25 billion a year in revenues, which would mean that spending money on end zone cameras would make it more difficult to reach that…

    Therefore, younger fans should be targeted in ad campaigns more. Obviously it is important to keep the audience you have, but growing the fanbase is also huge. If the fanbase is increased, the desire to attend a game will increase causing ticket prices to rise in the market, because more people want to attend a game. Around 32% of NFL fans make $40,000 to $75,000 a year (Eby, 2013). I think it is important to keep…

    There are many in the grassroots community that feel the NFL has not created a public affairs campaign concerning the safety of playing football at all levels. Increased player safety has been a priority of the evolution of the game and the league is proud to say that the game is safer and more exciting than ever. The NFL is actively attempting to protect football participants by funding the Heads Up Football Program, enforcing safety - related rule changes at the professional level, implementing a new concussion protocol, and establishing the Player Care Foundation, that is dedicated to helping retired NFL players. In 2014, the NFL Foundation rewarded USA Football with a five – year, $45 million grant to help expand the Heads Up Football Program that teaches safe tackling to youth football players. The Heads Up Football Program is designed to eliminate the…

    When a problem arises, people tend to look at others to assign blame when (more often than not) their finger should be pointing right back in the mirror. The NFL should not be given sole blame for the concussions players suffer while playing football; they are simply the easiest to target. When it is all broken down, the NFL would not even exist if it were not for every person who has ever bought a ticket, tuned into a game on the television or any form of device, or even bought merchandise. The fans are the water that keep the NFL afloat. During the Super Bowl 50, the peak average of viewers was 115.5 million, and that is just taking in to account the in-home televisions.…

    My sunburn lines between my shorts and socks symbolized the restless, tiring hours spent out on the field. Every Tuesday and Thursday, for two and a half hours, the sun scorched my body while my legs would scrape into the ground. The cluster consisted of the seniors’ looming bodies that would go shoulder to shoulder against my own freshman self as our feet would battle for control. While this exhaustion enthralled and encouraged my game, the sprints, planks, runs, and more caused me to dread going to that grassy field every week. The humidity produced heavy, useless pants from my lungs as my throat would feel as if it was closing in from a claustrophobic nightmare.…

    The giant stadium lights made the sky pitch black, the 4th quarter clock of the football game was running out, and the band was getting ready to play the fight song and sing the alma mater for the football team. At first the panic feeling was brushed off (thinking it might have been the uniform), but each passing moment it kept getting more difficult to breath. No doubt, I was having an asthma attack, an hour away from home, in front of the entire band, and I didn't bring my inhaler. Meanwhile my squad leader told one of the parent chaperones what was happening. Instantly I was sitting on the bleachers waiting while everyone passed by heading for the busses.…

    Although some people believe rules in football should not be changed because of the countless years the rules have been kept the same and the ways it would change the nature of the game, the rules should be adjusted to enhance the gameplay experience and make it safer. Football regulations have been increasingly changing throughout the course of the past decade and out of all sports, whether it be baseball, soccer, basketball, or hockey, has been one of the most changed sports. One of these changes, the instant replay rule, has been a major impact on all sports, but most significantly on the sport of football. This regulation, first used in football in 1986, authorizes the NFL to playback in slow motion any down they wish to see again. In 2016,…
