People were screaming outside and they all wore the same red t-shirt. We all became one of as song played. When we watched the 2002 World Cup, the song “Champions” always turned on during the game. The 2002 World Cup was the first time Korea went to the soccer semifinals. Actually, Korea had never gone to round 16 in the World Cup before. Everybody screamed and cried every single game.

    We were the champions. Skating as fast as possible, I rushed from the blue line to the net where our goalie was. Our team dog piled on top of one another and screamed with joy. Cheering and crying rang throughout the entire arena. I was elated, tears streamed down my face as I hugged my teammates. After a few seconds, our team recognized that we needed to shake hands with the other team. I understood the defeat and sadness in the opposing teams’ eyes because earlier in the year, I lost to an underdog team in the soccer section final. After the hand shaking, I was a given a medal from my coach.…

    My articles focus on the issue of immigration, specifically illegal immigration. It started with 9/11. The principle focus was how these people got into the country undetected. We were unable to let go of the immigration issue for around 6 years. While the topic has been around since about 2006,(amnesty marches from Mexican immigrants) the direct focus it has gotten came from suspiciousness from 9/11 about immigration. We have a pattern of xenophobia after major events in the US, for example communism and Japanese internment camp. The United States has specifically focused on Mexico because most of the immigration comes from there. Up to now no one wanted to become involved with immigration problems. Politics has damage all efforts to maintain standards that were in place. People want to focus mainly on the Mexican people as the problem area, but the problem is far bigger than boarder problems with Mexico. The problem started with allowing an influx of immigrates without any reasonable standards in place. Many years ago when anyone or families came to America, they had to have a sponsor. Just a few of many events that has lead to immigration debate is the fact that they can become citizens with little knowledge of this country or the English language. Changes are being made to accommodate their needs. Without any type of contribution they are able to collect, gain support that the American people haven't been able to do. An example of that is the American people that are on fix incomes and having a hard time making ends meet, aren't able to get any help, yet immigrates can find ways with full support to obtain whatever they need. When it comes to illegal, people from Mexico aren't the only ones that fit into that category, There are people that have been able to come into the United States that was to be for a short time and have never left or worked to become a US citizen that are among the illegal immigration…

    Champs sports is a business that was acquired in the 1980s by the Woolworth Corporation, it sold athletic merchandise. One of the advantages is that there is no branch for Champs in Lebanon. The alternative of champs in Lebanon is Footlocker but there are only two branches and it is not even located in Beirut making it harder for people to reach. Moreover, their selling price is so expensive ranging between 200$ and 300$ which makes people wavering from buying them, and since Al Shayya Group owns the franchise of the Footlocker, a smart competitor will buy the franchise of Champs and compete them. This can be done as the selling price in USA is highly lower than their price which is around 80$ to 90$.…
