There was more than one surprise Saturday for Detroit fans after the Lions announced their final 53-man roster. Undrafted rookie Adairius Barnes who hasn’t received much attention throughout the summer and preseason was able to outplay both Alex Carter and Darrin Walls for one of the final spots on the Detroit roster. Detroit made the decision to fill 11 of the 53 spots available with defensive linemen, but didn’t give one of them to Gabe Wright, the team’s fourth round pick in the 2015 NFL…

1. The Cincinnati Bengals Are A Serious Threat To Win The Super Bowl Four games, four wins, one turnover for Andy Dalton. The Bengals have dominated through their first four games. Yesterday, Andy Dalton played another terrific game. He finished with 321 passing yards and one touchdown, but what really sticks out to me, is the fact that Dalton still has only turned the ball over once this season. This is the first time in his career that he hasn’t committed more than one turnover over a span…

What does Alfred Morris bring to the Dallas Cowboys’ backfield? Although Darren McFadden was effective carrying the load as the lead back for the Cowboys’ rushing attack last season—banking on the veteran who has a history of nagging injuries to be a healthy camper wouldn’t be a safe route for the brass to take. So to add some insurance and competition, the Cowboys signed former Redskins back Alfred Morris to a 2-year, $3.5 million deal, with incentives for the 2-time Pro Bowler to potentially…

My favorite commercial from the Superbowl 2k16 would have to be 1 of the doritos commercial This commercial was my favorite because it was really funny. If you haven't seen it i would recommend you go watch it right now. I promise you it will make you laugh. The doritos company has always had at least 1 of there commercials in for the Superbowl. This year the doritos company made one about how everyone loves doritos no matter who you are and no matter how old you are either. This…

This story must begin with an understanding of how the Super Bowl has evolved. Though it has always been a big game -- the first edition placed enormous stress on a man named Vince Lombardi (and probably contributed to his early death in 1970 at age 57) -- the cultural significance of the Super Bowl needed time to emerge in American life. Accordingly, the weight of the Super Bowl wasn't larger than life at the beginning. The game had to become a cultural event. The empty seats for the first…

it easier to look at a culture and notice its unique features compared to fully understanding my own. Growing up in a rural community of Green Bay, Wisconsin presented me with minimal experiences of other cultures making this particular assignment incredibly intriguing for me. My parents grew up very poor and neither of them had much when they moved to Green Bay, both of them had to work extremely hard to get to where they are today. Because of this they have made sure to tell their stories…

Jay is in love with Daisy and wishes to be with her. He often stares from his lawn at the green light. In chapter one, it says “he stretched his arms toward the dark water in almost a…

meaning that we tend to overlook. The use of colors in the novel The Great Gatsby is very congruous with the rest of the novel. All of the characters and their actions can be compared to a color. These colors include blue which symbolizes sadness, green for hope, gold or yellow for wealth, and gray for poverty or depression. The color blue in this story symbolizes sadness. It is mostly associated with Mr. Gatsby and is longing for his lost love, Daisy. “He had come a long way to his blue lawn,…
