This speaks of how with losing the house, Alam has also lost Raka, both belong to the other side of the border. Home, we realize rather than being a physical space becomes an irrevocable feeling, as opposed only to the idea of ‘Homeland’, which is characterized by geographical boundaries.

The Calvin Knights football team has been undefeated since 1879. How is this spectacular feat possible? It has to do with the fact that Calvin does not actually have a football team. And I for one, believe it should stay that way. Despite the many sports fans at Calvin who crave one of America’s favorite past times, the school has yet to assemble a team. Both the Calvin board and others, including me, worry that creating a football team is not in the school’s best interest. The main reason…

competitive as they could be. In effect, this would mean that the teams will not be able to have the best players they could simply because a percentage of the positions is for domestic players, who are not necessarily the best. This could cause sports leagues to lose prestige and money. The Italian league’s case illustrates this point. It permitted only two foreigners in each team as a measure to give more…

Under the current bylaws of the NFL, no team can sell stock or public ownership in their franchise. Unless you are the Green Bay Packers. The Packers are the only team permitted to sell stock, because they were already selling stock before the NFL implemented the rule against it. This creates an enormous unfair advantage to the Packers over their competition in the NFL, and rule change needs to occur (Lariviere, 2011).

true? In reality, athletes earn what they deserve because they bring billions of dollars to their respective league, work hard in matters not involving their sport, find a way to manage all their money that they receive in a short time, and they work hard away from games to become better. First of all, athletes are not overpaid because of all the revenue they bring to the different leagues. The SIRS database says that the argument could be made that athletes are just playing a simple game and…

And it has been attracting major money like billions of dollars for the league and the schools itself, from things like advertisements, charging for admissions, television stations like cbs , espn, nbc etc. so that being the case every one from the coaches to the staff to the league associates , to the referees get a very good amount of salary. With most of the money coming in from the players you would expect the…

how empowered I feel now. HH and I belonged to the same organization, well known as The League. I am still a part of it, HH is not due to his struggles with confidentiality and integrity. But enough of that for now, we will revisit the topic another time. As for my journey, now that is one you want to hear, so keep reading my friends because you are in for a treat. But first you must remember one thing, the league must never know that I am allowing…

Kristaps Porzingis will still be a Knick, for now. The New York Knicks picked up the 2018-2019 team option on the 22-year old power forward/center from Latvia. But words are now spreading that he was almost traded by former Knicks president Phil Jackson for the No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA draft in order to get point guard Lonzo Ball. The Knicks selected Kristaps Porzingis as their fourth overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft. Many basketball enthusiasts were in disbelief and even disagree with…

It is in the postwar time periods of the Napoleonic Wars and World War I that Europe sees a new way of addressing the underlying causes of war in the attempt to prevent another: collective security. Collective security is when a large group of nations agree to not attack each other as well as preserve the provisions of their treaties and/or agreements. It is during both these postwar time periods that collective security is practiced. However, both time periods have differences in the way…
