101st Airborne Division

The NCAA rakes in on average $12 billion in revenues annually that flow in through college athletics programs(Finley, 2015). The latest and biggest debate is "Whether or not college athletes should get paid?". When college athletes go to college they are not allowed to earn any money while they are participating in athletics, but is that fair? Generally they are putting in full time work hours(40/week) or sometimes even more. As more and more college athletes are struggling to get by through and…

players, shows us that 4.3 people out of every 1,000 athletic exposures or AEs in practice, an exposure is an appearance in a game or practice, gets injured, and 9.9 people out of every 1,000 AEs get hurt in a game. Let’s do the math, if there are 347 Division I college basketball teams…

One of the hottest topics in college Athletics for the past decade is whether or not college athletes should get paid. Big Schools are making an absolute fortune on these highly gifted kids through their exceptional play and social media charisma. Whether or not they should get paid is a bit of a stretch but I think with all of the money the schools are making off of these athletes I think they can manage giving the players a few dollars. Players should be paid for three reasons. Players miss so…

scholarships. "To go along with their $40,000-$50,000 scholarships, basically free education, athletes enjoy luxury and academic services that ordinary students can’t obtain let alone afford". (Chudacoff) This evidence shows certainly the athletes that get division one scholarships have more luxuries than a regular student would. Yet, the NCCA proclaims to be an amateur association but doesn’t go by to a single definition of amateurism. There are many supporters of student compensation. To…

“Beware! Beware! Ides of March.” Ladies and gentlemen are you ready for the craziest season of March madness. I mean crazy, some of these teams have some powers they can use to their advantage. Maryland has a player named John Mary that can walk in the air because land generate under him. There is a couple different ways Maryland can use this to their advantage. First this one-of-a-kind player can stay above the opponent's goal and“ when the other team gets a point they can throw the ball to…

(Athletic). For example, an athletic scholarship may not always cover the expenses of books, computer program fees, food, and housing. College athletes should be paid because they’re working a full-time job. If the average NCAA college football player in Division One spends over 40 hours a week on their game, then they are working the same amount as those in full-time employment do. These hours are distributed over training sessions, games, travel and other required sessions that student…

Athletes getting paid to play has been discussed for long time now. College athletes feel as if they should be played to play since they are bringing in millions of dollars to the university. Some college athletes feel like they should be getting paid because they are the reason that the university is making millions of dollars, but the university doesn’t feel like they should pay them because they gave them a scholarship that covers the athlete’s tuition, housing and other things too through…

Student athletes bring in billions of dollars for their universities, but what do they get in return? The money brought in by these athletes never goes to their pockets, but instead to their universities and the NCAA. While these athletes on scholarship, the talent possessed by them brings in a wealth that outdoes the amount of their scholarship. Being a college football or basketball player can be a full-time job. These players invest their lives in the sport they play; some athletes can spend…

In Master Harold ...and the boys, Sam invites hally and willie to imagine lives transformed by courageously hopeful vision, but while willie eventually embraces that vision, the play ends sadly when hally condemns himself to hopeless cynicism when he repeatedly rejects this invitation and uses his imagination to defend himself against hope and to bruise others with his cynical pictures of a broken world. In "Master Harold"...and the boys we see Sam’s imagination and his strive to spread his…

March Madness is much better than the NBA Playoffs. There is many different reasons of why the March Madness exceeds. The tournament brings us fun, dramatic endings, and great competition. There is none of this in the NBA Playoffs. Yes, the NBA is the next step from college, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is better to watch. In the NBA there are super teams that, such as the Warriors, but not in the NCAA, any team could beat any team. To begin, March is a crazy and fun month. March…
