    Campos: Story Of The Trolley Dodgers

    The first article was about the Trolley Dodgers. In 1890, they joined the National League. Unfortunately, for them they did not have the finances to compete with teams like the New York Yankees. The Dodgers’ losing went on for about 70 years. As a result, they moved to Los Angeles in 1958; what we know today as the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 1997, the team was sold for 350 million dollars to Rupert Murdoch. In the closeout interview by Peter O’Malley (the former owner), he was grateful for all the employees that worked for him, especially Edward Campos. Little did O’Malley know Campos was committing significant fraud.…

    Bernard Malamud The Natural Essay

    He is constantly involved with love triangles, gambling, and more than his fair share of death. This book begins with the woes that Roy Hobbs experiences while a member of the Chicago Cubs, and coincidentally, the 2016 World Series just provided the first world victory for the Cubs since 1908. As I watched some of the games a few weeks ago, I could not help but wonder about the extreme highs and the destructive lows which a professional athlete must…

    Black Sox Scandal Research Paper

    The topic i choose from the 1920s was the Black Sox scandal. It was where the White Sox and the Cincinnati Reds were in the world series and gamblers paid White Sox players to lose the game, this happened 95 years ago. ‘’On October 9, 1919, the Cincinnati Reds defeated the heavily favored Chicago White Sox 10-5 to clinch an unlikely World Series win’’ (Andrews). ‘’The players on the Charles Comiskey's 1919 Chicago White Sox team were a fractious lot. The club was divided into two "gangs" of players, each with practically nothing to say to the other. Together they formed the best team in baseball--perhaps one of the best teams that ever played the game, yet they--like all ball players of the time--were paid a fraction of what they were worth’’(Linder).…

    Joe Dimaggio

    Joe DiMaggio is known as one of the greatest baseball players in baseball history by setting a record that is most likely unable to break with 56 straight hitting streaks. However, while DiMaggio was on his hitting streak when he caught up to George Sisler’s record with 41 games hitting streak, his hitting streak started to catch the public’s attention. Furthermore, DiMaggio also said a quote when people were asking him if he would break Sisler’s record and DiMaggio replied, “I’m not thinking a whole lot about it…I’ll either break it or I won’t”. This quote not only does it show that he does not give himself a huge amount of pressure on breaking the record but also he treats everything with a calm attitude and letting destiny decide everything else in the future. Joe DiMaggio’s 56 batting streak started from May 15, 1941 when he was playing the Chicago White Sox and ended after 2 months on July 17, 1941 in Cleveland. The hitting streak is still well known around the whole United States and the world because it’s a record that’s been there for 70 years already yet nobody was able to break the record yet. Besides DiMaggio’s spectacular performance in…

    Chicago Bears Super Bowl Victory

    The 1985 Bears super bowl champion team really proves what hard work and dedication can lead to. This win obviously meant a lot to the many men on the field, and for the entire Chicago bears fan base. Coach Ditka put together an almost unstoppable offensive attack and their defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan made their defense arguably the best defense of all time. Proving how much impact the right coaching can have on a team, and also how the Bears could not have won without this superb coaching. Lastly, the struggle, and perseverance it takes to become one of the best teams of all time is unreal. Through the battles of the season the team became stronger and came out on top like true…

    The Nba is fighting for a 2 year rule for college players who are just coming from high school going to college and they are able to one year and enter the draft .The students education should make the difference than any sport .Another problem would be the young athletes are interviewed by the media as a young athlete and the whole world is watching them. Have you ever noticed that the young players who do one year in college ,and make it to the pros end up with not a good education.If the young players sustain a injury or even worse wouldn't be able to play again they wouldn't have a degree or a job .A Lot of pro scouts they look for strong ,and mental demands ,and most of the players out of high school players aren't ready .That was a few…

    Pros And Cons Of Being A Baseball Player

    Brandon works hard and tries to do everything anyone says he can't, since the age of four, brandon has done anything he can to make it as a professional baseball player. That's enough talking about myself in the third person, as long as i can remember, i've always dreamed about playing baseball day-in and day- out as what most would call a “job”. I learned along the way that this game is a lot like life, it can pick you up and knock you down just as quick, in the words of Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard “Baseball has a way of ripping your heart out, stabbing it, putting it back in your chest, then healing itself just in time for Spring Training”.…

    North Korea Pros And Cons

    One very controversial topic in the U.S. is Healthcare. The affordable care act was passed during the Obama administration on March 23, 2010.The purpose of the law was to extend health insurance coverage to the 15% of the U.S. population who lack it. This act mainly for people who received no coverage from their employers and are not covered by U.S. health programs for the poor and elderly. This law requires all Americans to have health insurance, but also offers subsidies to make coverage more affordable. This law also requires businesses with more than 50 full-time employees to offer health insurance. The affordable care act bans insurance companies from denying health coverage to people with pre-existing health conditions. It allows young people to remain on their parents' plans until age 26, and expands eligibility…
