Fantasy Football For Dummies Analysis
When reading Fantasy Football for Dummies, by a Dummy, I got bored. I knew what he was talking about because I watch football and I know what Fantasy Football is. The narrator pieced the paper in a plain manner. With barely painting a vivid picture, the description gave me a basic idea of what the reading was about.
What I think would of enhanced Fantasy Football for Dummies by a Dummy, would of been more of a description of other characters in his league. He mentions other people in his league but nothing really about them. If he would of included a more detailed description of the fantasy football league,
When he mentions the league in the second paragraph, that would of been a nice addition of a description to grasp the reader's attention

    There are many things that I really enjoyed reading in my book. Some of those things would have to be just how accurate everything seemed to be. A good example of this would be how Mrs. Bowen put all of the dates and historical events into the arguments that were held in making the Constitution. Another thing that I liked was just how the author made me…

    Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, and Sunday Night Football are those special nights when many fans lose their minds over how the NFL rule book is set up. The NFL has many rules that are not clear and should be revised. Almost every rule can have an argument on what is wrong with it, as well on how it should be changed to have a clear cut explanation when a play comes into question. Some of the most argued calls come from these Rules and Sections in the NFL rule book: Rule 2- Definitions - Section 2-The Ball, and Possession of the ball, Section 14- Fouls and spots of enforcement, violation, and Rule 15- Officials and instant replay.…

    Imagine that through some instance of clairvoyance, you have the foresight to see the outcome of this week’s upcoming Football games. You have the option to choose between 2 players to start at Wide Receiver. The first player is the quintessential “matchup proof” WR1 and the other one is a de facto starter of a far lower pedigree. The Wide Receivers score 18 and 21 fantasy points respectively. When given the option between Player A’s 18 points and Player B’s 21 Points, most, if not all owners would choose to start Player B. There’s no trick here, with the information provided so far this should be a straightforward decision.…

    With the industry growing at such a fast rate and bringing in such a revenue, they were likely to see some interest from officials, “members of Congress have called for the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the sites and we’re likely to see hearings in the House early next year looking into the fairness and legality of sites like DraftKings and FanDuel. (Montgomery)”. To the blind eye there seems to be nothing wrong with what these companies are doing from a legal standpoint. However, the companies just recently banned its workers from participating in the one week leagues. This has recently brought up the discussions of possible insider trading going on to give some people an advantage on the one week games.…

    This book is the type of read one would recommend to a friend, however may not be up to the AP curriculum standards. On one hand the book is smart, funny, and exciting. While on the other hand it is simple and at times feels overwritten, as if Mezrich tried too hard. For example, there are moments where the action becomes so enticing and Mezrich manages to ruin it by trying to convince the reader how exciting all of this really is. Specifically, in describing one particular hand, Mezrich writes, "Kevin drew a nine for a solid nineteen. Martinez drew another queen, a strong twenty. The dealer had a six showing. Heaven on felt.(pg. 82)" The last portion of that description is a bit cliché and tacky, and it is made clear that Mezrich was trying too hard. Going back to an earlier point, had Mezrich trusted the thrill of the action more and left off the unnecessary insight at the end of the sentence, he would have been better off. The most exhilarating parts of Mezrich's book describe the paranoia that sweeps through the players once they discover that the Vegas security agency is on to them. This is where Mezrich is able to shine, through the use of intense description and a tantalizing depiction of the events that follow. For example, “The team was in disarray, their future as a profitable venture utterly uncertain.(pg. 189)” That sentence alone sets the tone for the next five chapters, where the MIT students are in a scramble to save the teams as well as their own futures.…

    How to Read Literature Like a Professor by Thomas C. Foster will not grant you some innate capability to comprehend complicated texts, and it will most definitely not establish your position in society as a“professor.” Coincidentally, Foster’s novel demonstrates an essential quality of Literature: placing the reader fast asleep. However, that is not to say the novel isn’t good; the novel is simply not a “joy read.” The book not being particularly enjoyable has nothing to do with the manner in which it was written, but more to do with the educational aspect of it. Being forced to do something is hardly ever enjoyable.…

    Reading for academic purposes and reading for pleasure, they can be perceived as opposites when in essence they are mostly the same. With each the object is to read a work of literature and gain knowledge or experience from its contents, and with both methods one can recognize patterns, themes, and analogies. One can notice the similarities among novels and assume that the hero will win in the end without much thought. The key difference that distinguishes academic reading is the fact that it requires a conscious effort to connect seemingly disparate characters, events, and even stories to gain true understanding of the work. An example, albeit a simple one, would be George Orwell’s Animal Farm. In his novel, although never directly stated,…
