They are just a fraction of who my friend is, but that does not make them any less than my real friend. I decided I should interview my friend about K-Rad to learn more…

The BTK Killer media hype began in 1974 when the Otero family of four was brutally murdered in their own home on January 15th. This marked the beginning of living in fear and confusion for the next thirty years. Joseph Sr., his wife and two children were all home during the day. Three more children were at school, and one of them would come home to find his family. In the early morning hours, Rader invaded the home and held everyone at gunpoint and ordered everyone into a bedroom to be tied up.…

Are the Falcons overrated? Entering the 2015 season, the Falcons fans had lofty expectancies for the team to go on to the Super Bowl. However, those expectancies were impractical, considering some of the major unsorted complications. When they had only 6 regular season matches left, Atlanta was at 6-4, a record entirely inconsistent with very naïve expectancies. A precise examination of the Falcons’ record last season reveals how overrated they were. The team’s susceptibilities were really…

The general topic of this paper is to address hindsight bias and putting it to the test which will be demonstrating the prediction of a sporting event using hindsight bias. Research has been done for hindsight bias and it has been shown that “Hindsight bias has explained as people’s incorporation of the outcome of an event into their memory of the event – the reconstructionist view.” (Raacke, Fryer, Nicks, & Durr, 2001, p. 350) The purpose of this research is to mainly examine hindsight bias in…

I selected Coach Payton’s memorable and profound NFC Championship post-game interview. Coach Payton mentioned more than once that he was struggling with his emotions and expressed the game was kind of a blur to him at…

The statement made was heard loud and clear as the Jets trumped the Miami Dolphins 20-6 with the help of a young, and ‘widely unknown’, receiving core including Robby…
