Super Bowl XIV

The University of Florida is a very prestigious Division One school especially in football. In my research paper I will be talking about the history of Florida Gator football which began in 1906, and how the school started their football tradition. A man by the name of Steve Spurrier is the head coach who set them up for multiple national titles, and the current 3 national championships that they have, Chris Leak who played for them from 2003-2006 had a great contribution. Another legend who…

As the July 15 deadline draws near, Dez Bryant, his agents, and Dallas Cowboys executives resume contract negotiations to try and get the wide receiver to start for the team in September. Held this week at the Cowboy’s team facility, it was the first time in almost four months that both parties have met in person to discuss the 26-year-old’s financial and playing future in Dallas, as per ESPN. The former Oklahoma State standout still has yet to sign the $12.8 million franchise tender offered…

The Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl: Would they have made it? As of October 2015, a record of 12-4 would have certainly earned the Falcons a playoff spot, with perhaps a first round bye. Did that, however, mean that they were contenders for the 2016 Super Bowl? It was likely, but 3 things hindered the Falcons from getting to the second Super Bowl in the history of the franchise: First, the Falcons had not won consecutive playoff matches since 1998. Second, in the NFC playoffs, Matt Ryan was…

Sports Marketing Journal Analysis The sport marketing and business industry provide a lot of different sources that you can read to gain information about the field. For this assignment I chose two articles from different journals I felt could be beneficial to someone in my discipline. The first article came from a journal called The Huffington Post. My second article came from a journal called Human Kinetic Journal. From these two articles I hope to detail some of their main points as well…

to watch the show. Often, the commercials during a show correspond to the demographics for the TV show itself. Was this true for anything you observed on your Commercial Dig chart? Give specific examples. I watched the Super Bowl. Yes the statement is true. The Super Bowl is meant for all ages. So the commercials are meant for all ages. The puppy-monkey-baby commercial was funny and kinda creepy. But the commercial was made to stick in your head. So every time you think of the commercial,…

just a quarter of play. In 1999, he lead the Hokies to an undefeated season (11-0 win – loss record). It turns out that Florida State was the only team that beat them during this season. They took a 46-29 victory over the Hokies in the Nokia Sugar Bowl in 1999. Vick was selected first in the 2001 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons…

In my opinion, the best commercial of Super Bowl Fifty was the NFL’s Super Bowl Babies commercial. This commercial caught my attention because of the message behind the advertisement. The message that “Football is Family,” resonates with the viewers because it shows that the National Football League cares about more than just the business side of their corporation. Super Bowl Babies commercial showed that the NFL has a set of morals behind their business that are family friendly and a good…

My claim was that memory foam would be the best, and I was right. My partners and I made a helmet designs call Chromosome Saver.I uses 1 piece of medium foam, 7 pieces of memory foam, and on 12 pieces thin foam. It is made for football. It is one of the best helmets on the market. No one has a helmet quite like this. We ran extensive tests on our helmet designs. Our testing equipment was one testing plate and a soccer ball. What we did was simple. All we did was drop the soccer ball form one…

The Buccaneers haven’t exactly kept it a secret that they will spend a lot of time this season running a no-huddle, hurry-up offense. Second year quarterback Jameis Winston and the Bucs offense put together their best game of the preseason against the Cleveland Browns when Tampa ran out of the no-huddle every play the starters were on the field. Head coach Dirk Koetter surely couldn’t expect to use the hurry-up approach that much in a regular season game, could he? Winston and the offense have…

The Seattle Seahawks have a one of a kind coach named Pete Carroll. The Seahawks head coach likes to have fun during practice and in meetings and even has a mini basketball hoop in the practice facility that they can use in practice and sometimes he will stop meetings to have a shooting contest on it. He also sometimes likes to play blaring music to let the players have fun. Even though he encourages the players to be themselves in practice or in games he does not like when they start yelling or…
