Assignment for class 2.0

This is an assignment for class:

Before I started at Full Sail, I was planning on being a sports broadcaster and I thought all you had to do, was talk sports and research stats. I had always thought I wanted to be a sports broadcaster, but then I found my true love and that was motorsports. I never went to a NASCAR race but then, I covered the Daytona 500 and just fell in love with it. I have always been a race fan but because of that, that just cemented what I wanted to do. When you go to the Daytona 500 and fell in love with the sport, you just can’t go to one race. Therefore because of that, that lead me to cover (so far) four races with another 11 to go this year. One thing led to another and since my next race is Sonoma in California, and because of that, I may be working for NBC Sports as a guy to get sound for the NASCAR America show the following Tuesday. I never really know what my path was to get into sports broadcasting until finally, I got to go to my first ever race and it all came together from there.

Where do I go from where I am currently am now? For starters, I plan on getting with one of the two radio broadcasts. Motor Racing Network carries most of the races but the Performance Racing Network carries the remaining races. I am interning with them at Sonoma and planning on meeting with the director and giving him my highlight reel. From then on, I plan on going to races and meeting with people and seeing if I can get a tryout with MRN. If I don’t, I just plan on meeting with connections and see if I can land somewhere. In today’s day and age, it is more about connections, rather than how good you are. I know that God has a plan so I am just going to take the path that I am currently on and roll with it.

Ever since I decided to pursue my passion in sports media, I have always wanted to be a sports broadcaster and even though, I am changing it up a little bit, I still am going to achieve that.

NFL QB’s for Week 17

It is the final week of the regular season and for the 32 teams in the National Football League (NFL), it is safe to say that the QB mix is very banged up. Here is a list of backup QB’s that will be starting for their respective teams:

Ravens- Ryan Mallet (Former with the Texans)

Bengals- AJ McCarron (Backup to Andy Dalton)

Colts- Josh Freeman (Free Agent), Ryan Lindley (Free Agent) OR Stephen Morris (Practice Squad)

Titans- Zach Mettenberger (Backup to Mariota)

Cowboys- Kellen Moore (Formerly with the Lions)

Texans- Brian Hoyer (Was battling for the starting job with Ryan Mallet)

Broncos- Brock Osweiler (Was second string QB behind Peyton Manning)

Rams- Case Keenum (Was on practice squad till Week 10-11)

49ers-Blaine Gabbert (backup to Colin Kaepernick to start the season)

That makes 9 NFL TEAMS and 11 BACKUP QB’s that will suit up and start for their team to finish the season.

 

In your opinion, what is the reason for the number of injuries that have been suffered by starting QB’s?

Big Brother 16: Episode 3

At the very start of the episode, we saw a new side of Pow Pow. She actually put herself second and really cared/cares about Donny. I love Donny and his alliance with Pow Pow. Hope one of them wins the veto and then they vote the other person out.

Donny is a true guy. I have so much respect for him and the emotion he showed, was making me little watery in the eyes.

Devin, on the other hand, is just a really stupid player. First, he thinks Donny is solider, then he thinks he is a great actor. MAKE UP YOUR MIND! I am actually on Frankie’s side of this one: He is overthinking this game already!

Donny and Devin talk and Devin asks him about if he was in the military. He said no and I was thinking that Devin may turn the tables but it still seems that he wants to take Donny out.

Joey asks Amber if she wants to have an all girl alliance. Joey doesn’t know that Amber is in the Bomb Squad.

Amber then goes back to Caleb and tells him. Jo Jo is target #1 now.

Jo Jo tells Devin that yes, she did start a all girl alliance. Why?!?! You never tell somebody that! oh goodness..

Next up is picking players for the veto: Donny, Zach, Pow Pow, Victoria, Cody and Caleb all will be in competition. 

POV Comp was up next and boy, they cats are not very good spellers! Last one was Donny and he had a 9 letter word! DONNY WINS POV! WHOO!!!!

 Veto meeting is up next and Donny takes himself off the block. Caleb puts Joey on the block so it will be Joey vs. POW POW!
