Bandwagon Fan Research Paper

304 Words2 Pages

One of my pet peeves is when I see people have three favorite football teams . Also when someone was a fan of one team one year, but then next year just because another team won the superbowl they have a new favorite team. Bandwagon fans get annoying to me because they think that they are a really big but once another team is good and wins a lot they change to the winning team. I know a person that has a patriots, seahawks, broncos, and a lions jersey. Anytime one of these teams win a superbowl he forgets about all his other jerseys and wears the winning team's jersey. This is what I call a bandwagon fan. Bandwagon fans are the worst type of fans because even if the people think they know a lot about a team, I bet they don't more than likely.

    Proper management of ticket scalping situations is vital to any and all teams and/or organizations. Someone working in the sports field to reduce risks should be aware of the regulations of ticket scalping in each and every state. Teams especially need to be on the lookout for people illegally scalping their tickets, as the Patriots did (a RARE circumstance where they can be commended for doing something right). If someone is making money off tickets, that’s money that should be going to the sport teams. Without maximizing profits, an organization in this economy could swiftly

    The National Football League is an integral part of American culture, practically owning a day of the week. Though they do not release their annual financial data, they are valued upwards of $45 billion placing them tantamount with some of the world’s largest companies. However, the current corporate structure significantly limits its organizational effectiveness; recently, the organization’s culture and questionable practices have been largely scrutinized. Although the National Football League continues to generate high revenues due to favorable competitive forces, we recommend they provide a more sustainable product with a focus on public perception to address issues of misfit and centrality.

Giants 3-3 4:25 PM ET – TV: FOX Ineptness on the offensive side of the ball has influenced Cowboys HC Jason Garrett to shake things up – giving Matt Cassel the nod at quarterback – and the progress of rookie standout O-lineman La’el Collins has earned him the starting spot at left guard over Ronald Leary. According to reports from Valley Ranch, the Cowboys have been giving Christine Michael first team reps at running back during practice. Joseph Randle hasn’t rocked the house as the lead ball-carrier for Dallas’ ground game, averaging only 3.9 yards per carry, but the yards in total have been decent with OC Scott Linehan getting Randle and the backs involved in the passing game. The Giants’ defense is ranked near

    There are many sports team names and mascots whose names reference Native Americans; this has become a public controversy due to the sports team names being interpreted as a racially offensive pursue. Most people do not take into consideration that these teams have an important meaning behind them, and how they contribute to the insightful history of Native Americans themselves. It would be a catastrophe having to lose all the history.

  • Persuasive Essay On Patriotism In Sports

    661 Words  | 3 Pages

    Recently, there has been a lot of talk surrounding patriotism in sports and its effect on our world today. Specifically, people have been talking about the actions of Colin Kaepernick, a former starter, then backup, and now starting quarterback once again for the San Francisco 49ers. The reason patriotism in sports has been so popular lately is because Kaepernick chose to take a knee during the national anthem to avoid supporting a country that, in his view, treats people of color and minorities unfairly. Kaepernick's actions have spurred most of the country to get involved in the issue and caused many people to choose sides. While there is still widespread debate on whether or not Kaepernick should be kneeling during the anthem, it is clear that his message is powerful and he obviously has followers who believe in his actions
