Lambeau Field: A Day At Home
Nearly every Sunday afternoon in fall just about anywhere in Wisconsin you will likely find most people cheering on the green and gold. While watching a game at Lambeau Field is an incredible experience, my Sunday’s revolve around being with my family during game time and watching from the luxury of our own living room. I look forward to this Sunday routine every week: waking up early to attend 9:30 mass at St. Teresa Church, off to the grocery store to stock up on Packer party essentials, and then kickoff begins. By game time the table is loaded with mounds of freshly baked goodies and an assortment of lunchtime snacks. Our Sunday’s best include sporting your desired Packer jersey, my dad and I both support #12 for Aaron Rodgers. I love watching

    Lincoln Financial Field

    • 16 Pages

    Lincoln Financial Field was something that was dreamed up by a fresh management team headed by new team owner Jeff Lurie in 1994. It wasn’t until five years later, in 1999, that a plan was set in motion by the Pennsylvania government when they announced $320 million would be set aside for the construction of 4 new professional stadiums in the state, 2 in Philadelphia and 2 in Pittsburgh. It took a few years longer than Pittsburgh, especially with the poor local growth coalition in Philadelphia, for the project to begin after the announcement to get everything straightened out so that what would be called Lincoln Financial Field could be built. With little public input and few objections to the football stadium that was to be the new home of the Eagles they were able to start building before the baseball stadium. However, the concerns and issues were not just for the baseball stadium; because both teams shared their previous stadium the city of Philadelphia took both the creation of a new baseball stadium and football stadium together.…

    Problem three consists of a football field that needs a new irrigation system. The best route for the water pipes, location of the sprinklers, what part of the field each sprinkler waters, and how much of the field each sprinkler waters had to be determined. While figuring this out, the whole football field has to be watered without being over watered. The sprinkler placed in the corners will cover ¼ of a circle and it will spray at a 90 degree angle.…

    When asked to name a favorite place, some people’s brains may be flooded with memories of different spaces and experiences they have had. But for me, it is easy. Only one place comes to mind—the Joe Louis Arena. The home of the Detroit Red Wings is a dome rich in history and uniquely located in an American city that sits uncharacteristically north of Canada. Built in 1979, The Joe has a personality all of its own. The Joe Louis Arena is my favorite place because of the pre-game experience in the city, the historical vibe of the arena, and, of course, the excitement of the greatest game in sports.…

    A man of faith, a family man, a leader, a friend, and a coach. In Dungy's locker room you'll find a set of coaches focused, calm, and praying. Players preforming their pregame routine, or reading the bible. For some a handwritten note from Dungy full of positive messages, praise, and how to be not only a better player, but a better man. This is not your typical locker room you could say. It is more of the calm before the storm. Before every game Dungy, sits his players, and his staff down together to pray, or read a verse from the Bible. Dungy will talk about the game and the strategy, but he preaches God's message. Something you wouldn't see in Coach Gaines locker room. This quote here form Quiet Strength shows an example of Tony, and his faith "This gave us plenty of opportunities to talk about heaven and God's gift of salvation," (Dungy 269). Dungy models his life sprung his faith. Ever since a young boy he grew up in the faith life, and he's done everything he can to spread the good Lord's word. Dungy is also a family man. He puts his family first in everything he does. He places family, and God over football. One example is when Dungy was on the field before a game. Dungy almost always has his kids with him on the sideline during games, if they got their homework done. A security officer told Dungy that his kid wasn't allowed on the sideline. Dungy spoke with the officer who wouldn't change his…

    I have chosen Centerville ISD as the school to complete my Field Experience 1 for this semester. Centerville Elementary has a different setup than the average school. Because of the low population, 1st-3rd grade classes are located in one building. Each class rotates throughout the day to three different teachers. Each teacher teaches two subjects. My mentor teacher, Mrs. Childress, teaches reading in the morning and science in the afternoon. The three teachers create a collaborative environment for the students. The small building has 4 classrooms, 1 is used as a computer lab/library for all the classes.…

    Superbowl and culture

    • 1312 Words

    Imagine 96.9 million people watching the same thing, ingesting copious amounts of food and beer, and cheering maliciously for a squad that may or may not be their team of choice. I grew up in South Africa where the Super bowl is not nearly as big as it is in the United States. I was naive to the idea of watching any big game besides the World Cup. When I moved to the US I did not know what the Super bowl was. 198 countries watch the Super bowl and it is aired in 25 different languages across the world. I can’t help but think to myself that this is just a game and I don’t really care who wins, even though my surrounding suggested otherwise. I am sitting in a room full of diehard Seahawks fans. All of the furniture has been moved to each wall in the little room so that everyone can see the big flat screen TV. Beers are cracked, chip bags are opened, and we are about to watch the most watched TV program in United States history, the Super Bowl. Bronco’s fans are turned away and the guys roar at them as they try to enter the small apartment. “If you are not supporting the Seahawks you can stand up and get the hell out” one of my friends yelled as non-supporters walked away. Bud Light is the beer of choice in the room and Doritos are the chip of choice. As the game is about to start the room ignites and everyone is immediately fired up. The commercials play through the loud chatter in the apartment and they seem to be unimportant except for a few that are considered memorable. The Super Bowl is a spectacle and there is nothing else like it. The Super Bowl is a large reflection of American culture. Through media, commercials, and the atmosphere that this game creates, patriotism and masculinity are unintentionally the main aspects of this spectacle.…

    My father and I stand in our family room wearing matching Tom Brady jerseys. We shake with anticipation. It looks like the Seahawks are about to score a touchdown and pull ahead of the Patriots in the last few minutes of the super bowl. All hope seems lost until Malcolm Butler makes his legendary interception and ensures us a superbowl victory. My family exults. The Patriots have once again claimed another. We have spent the past months waiting and watching, hoping and praying. The Super Bowl wasn’t just won for the men on the team, it was won for all of New England. As Robert Kraft says, “we are all Patriots.”…

    Nothing says football to me like, the smell of my mom's famous hot wings frying or dressing up in purple and gold to cheer on my beloved Minnesota Vikings. I have learned through my years of cheering for the team, that being a Vikings fan means putting up with those “Cheese-heads” from the state next door. I believe the Vikings vs. Packers rivalry is one of the greatest in the NFL. I've found this to be true not only through my family traditions, but also from witnessing player and fan behaviors, and simply the geographic placement of these two bordering states on the map.…

    The way we spend our Sundays has changed drastically. Traditionally people would wake up and go to church. They would spend their entire day with God. Sundays used to be a day of rest and a day that is dedicated to God. But now people have forgotten what this day was ment for. People spend their days watching t.v. and football has been a great contributor to this. The Superbowl airs on Sundays so people decide to sit around watching it. They are totally inbursed in the football game giving them an excuse to stay at home, eat, and drink. The super bowl airs for four hours and people are stuck to the t.v. for the whole entire game. Football has had a major impact on our society and because of it people spend their Sundays watching football.…
