As an owner of a restaurant, I am a part of a team every day. If I had to choose a project, it would be our SuperBowl Sunday. This is our greatest challenge every year because we have an enormous amount of huge orders to fill. Each member of my team has his or her own duties. It is my job to make sure that each member of my team is equipped with everything needed to perform their task effectively and efficiently.…
In today’s world of sports, teams are utilizing illegal methods to win and have an advantage over competitive teams. In the NFL one of the biggest teams in America are the New England patriots. They have utilized their creative illegal strategies to beat competition. The team has been known to be one of the top superior teams in the league, however, they have also been known to utilize illegal tactics and strategies to win. A few years ago the New England patriots were under fire for allegedly spying on other team’s plays and coaches hand gestures. They were caught spying on the New Jersey jets plays using cameras and hidden microphones to learn their offense and defense of plays. The scandal reached the public community…
The Green Bay Packers are unlike any other in the NFL in the structure of their team. The Packers are the only NFL team to not have an owner. The owners of all the other clubs lose revenue to their owners because they are for profit, and the owner takes some of the revenue. Since the Green Bay Packers are owned by the people, all of the revenue that is made from the football games is reinvested into the club. The Packers are a non-profit organization, because all of the profits are put right back into the club.…

The Ravens is valued at $1.5 billion, making it the 24th most valuable sports franchise in the world.…
Throughout my lifetime there have been many different types of NFL teams. There are the teams that are good every year. Then there are the the five hundred teams. Next, in the NFL are the disappointments. These teams are always decent, but they never make it all the way. Lastly, there are the laughing stocks of the NFL. These teams are always horrible and never do anything. In a thirty-two team league, categories come naturally. Not everybody can be good at the same time.…
The NFL makes an average of 8 billion dollars in revenue a year, some years making over 10 billion dollars in a single season. All of the money coming directly or indirectly from fans. Making NFL teams publicly owned and traded where anybody could purchase a stock and be a “owner.” Some people say that if NFL teams were publicly owned unpopular teams would not sell as many stocks therefore not being able to fund their team's needs. If NFL teams where publicly owned the NFL as an organisation would make much more money.…
3. Fans who attend sporting events primarily for the social interaction or entertainment benefit of the event are said to possess _____.…
In all examples of satire the NFL is credited to the allegations of their players and crimes and what they do to combat it. In the first article it talks about all the wonderful thing the NFL is doing and how I show to the world like an open book, but then calls everyone very brash names. This shows that the writer believes the complete opposite, that they are very lucrative. I believe this article is mediocre at best for satire. This article show the flaws of the NFL and sandals, but it doesn’t do anything for the reader, it didn’t make me feel any different. The next example is the info-graphic. The info-graphic shows a couple watching TV. The girlfriend ask if they can watch Dr. Phil, but the boyfriends just shrugs it off and continues to…

Many advertisers take on the role of sponsoring sporting events or teams to bolster popularity and gain recognition through the team or event. Sport marketing urges memberships, sales, and recognition. These factors represent the biggest benefits for the companies, the athletes, the associations, the leagues, and sport event managers. Well thought out, effective marketing helps to understand the customer and the marketplace. Also, informed marketing decisions help increase status and importance in people's lives, sport is considered a profitable and sustainable marketing source. At large sporting events, sponsors like to take advantage of the large crowd to advertise products (handout products, freebies, contests, etc.) because more people will be able to see it. Therefore this is significant because not only is it a simple way to announce a product but it is also efficient due to the amount of people who would see it at a large event. “Another example of sports marketing through sponsorships, is the renovation of the contract between Adidas and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF). In August of this year the CEO of Adidas Herbert Hainer in companion of the president of the FMF, Justino Compeán announced the renewal of the contract in order to permit Adidas to continue producing and designing the uniform of the Mexican teams until 2018. This is an example of sports marketing because as it was define, sports marketing is a marketing strategy in which companies related to sports products or services promote their trademark through design, production or other resources. In this case Adidas, which is completely related to sports, is the company that is using sports marketing as a strategy, by designing the uniforms of the football team and as a consequence its trademark is being promoted every time there is a game.” (Wikipedia, Sports Marketing)…
To get a sense of the amount of money involved intercollegiate sports such as football. Let’s be clear, football cannot be taught, its either you have it in you or you don’t have it in you, ‘’It’s a God given talent’’. I honestly don’t believe it is fair for football players to not receive a single penny after bringing in thousands and sometimes millions of dollars in the playoff games, and in the championship game. For example, on December 31 2016, Per Adam Jude both teams were allotted 13,000 tickets which equal’s 26,000 tickets, which left 45,228 tickets to be paid for full price. According to www.vividseats.com the cheapest tickets were 180.00 each. There are 20,000 nosebleed seats in this stadium they played in. so if you do the math and calculate 180x20,000, the amount will equal out to 360,000 dollars, which would be the amount of money these football athletes attracted in just off nosebleed seats. The NCAA is a multi-billion-dollar industry that generated over $845 billion last year due to their players’ ability to entertain and perform to their fullest extent always. So, with all this money flowing in why wouldn’t they provide their athletes a stipend? Truth be told, if it wasn’t for these athletes there wouldn’t be no fans, which mean there wouldn’t be no money. So, can you tell how is it fair that these football players can’t receive a single dime after putting in the time,…
They have put plenty of money into foundations such as the NFL Players Care Foundation and Foundation for the National Institutes of Health which both contribute to tons of healthcare research. Commissioner Roger Goodell has also made an attempt to add in rules and regulation that are supposed to help players from receiving Concussions. If these rules aren’t follow player are getting fined for the cause of the injury. Columbia Pictures is even trying to contribute to public awareness of this injury. As you can see the commissioner, the NFL, and other foundations that contribute to the NFL and NFL players, are all contributing money and research that will help conquer the problem of Concussions in the…
Should College Athletes be paid? There is a huge debate around the nation, whether college athletes should be paid. Since college athletes contribute to millions of dollars in revenue for the NCAA as well as their respective schools, many argue that they deserve to be paid. On the other hand, since many college athletes get free education and other benefits, many say they are being compensated already. All things considered, college athletes should not be paid because after all, most college athletic programs do not generate profits.…
American football as we know it originated from rugby played in Britain in the mid-19th century. The person who Americans consider the “Father of American Football” is Walter Camp. Professional football can be traced back to 1982, when there was a $500 contract for the Allegheny Athletic Association and the Pittsburgh Athletic Club to play a game against each other. Originally football was primarily a sport of the Midwestern industrial towns in the United State. In 1902, the American Professional Football Association was formed and two years later the National Football League. The competition was fierce between the two leagues, which led the two leagues to merge. Football eventually became national. When the two leagues merged is when…
U.S. cities that own a professional basketball and football team bring in a lot of revenue from ticket sales and team merchandising, based on the type of fan base they have. And the more their teams win, and the amount of championships they obtain, the more fans they acquire to spend more money towards their favorite teams. In contrast, the NFL (National Football League) generates the most out of any other major league in the United States.…
