inhumane to the players if they are not given the recommended downtime that physicians suggest after a concussion. Glancing at article three from the Virginia Board of Education shows cataclysmic longer term symptoms of concussions such as depression, increased possibility of suicide, emotional distress and more. This raises the question of "is the act of allowing a player back into the playing field ethical?" Is winning the game really that much higher on the priority list over the player 's…

their training, practices and competition schedules. The WNBA pays the top women players 60 times less than top men players. The minimum salary for a female basketball players in the WNBA is $38,913 and the maximum salary is $109,500. The minimum salary for a male player in the NBA is $525,093 and the maximum is $16.407 million.

Coach Yoast then went up to Petey and asked him to play for the defense team. Later on after the game Coach Boone said that he felt like Coach Yoast was crippling the black players and not the white players. This is where Coach Yoast had experience cultural shock because he realized that he was really crippling the black players but not the white…

future could be as easy as making helmet to helmet hits illegal in the game and penalize the player. And in the pros they could possible fine the players for the helmet to helmet hits which they have started to do. If a player does get a possible concussion scientist are looking into being able to take a quick blood sample on the sideline, like if you were checking blood sugar, and test it to see if the player has an elevated protein level, which the brain releases into the blood after a brain…

the media has a huge effect on society. Movies and television shows that depict sex and violence also have an effect on society, however; video games get the viewer/game player involved with the story and encourage the game player to make the actions and the choices for their character. This develops a new mindset for the player and can lead to an addiction to the game. Which for some can influence or inspire them to commit crimes based on the games they are binging. Do they learn their lesson?…

rules, one player is chosen to be the "Original Zombie" and then tags as many human players as they can. Every 48 hours, each zombie must tag one human or they "starve" and are out of the game.

The fact that these sports have been the cause of the increase in revenue has raised the question if the athletes should be compensated for the work they do.…

horror-esque game. There are even dark red stains in the bathtub - that end up being hair dye. All of this plays with the players expectations. However, it is not a horror game, nothing ever pops up or scares the player. Thus an implicit rule is broken. Another implicit rule that is broken is that the player expects all the rooms to have light. In most video games, the player does not need to search for light fixtures – the room is automatically lit. Some implicit rules it does follow are; if…

whether the long-term health of football players outweighs the staggering revenue flowed into the NFL every year. The NFL has adopted policies to limit head trauma such as, enforcing penalties and fines on players who commit helmet-to-helmet hits, and moving the kick-offs by five yards in hopes of reducing the speed of collisions (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/sports/league-of-denial/timeline-the-nfls-concussion-crisis/).…
