Sports Broadcasting Critique As a sportswriter and an avid fan of games, basketball to be specific, I have over time developed firm and strong opinions regarding most football leagues and series. However, beyond just giving views about which team would win the National Basketball Association tournament and whether Chris Paul would outsmart LeBron James by the end of the season, I sometimes take a backward step and intuitively examine the entire field of sports journalism and broadcasting. It was not until recently that I discovered the various deficiencies and inadequacies that have been riffing among sports journalists, broadcasters, and reporters. This paper, therefore, presents comprehensive coverage of the bad habits being practiced in sports broadcasting and the reasons I think such characters should not be the case. I often find it disgusting when most of the sports reporters and journalist spent most of the time on trivial matters as opposed to the real gaming issues. They excessively focus on non-sport aspects even when they should be giving significant highlights to the viewers and fans. A prominent politician attending the session…

Sports Injury Management  Sports injuries refer to the damages that occur during training or competition. Other sports injuries can occur due to accidents, inadequate warm-up, improper training, and lack of conditioning. Sports and exercise can affect the health of an individual in the form of injuries. The effects of these injuries can be minor, and one recovers after a period of rest. When the injuries are significant, the affected individuals may need to retire from the career (Brukner & Khan, 2017). A substantial percentage of all emergencies are linked to sports and exercise. Injuries in games are inevitable but can be managed and reduced. The benefits of taking part in sporting activities outweigh the risks of injuries that are encountered during sports activities. This paper elucidates the classification of injuries, assessment, and management strategies that are aimed at these injuries.   Classification of Injuries Sports or exercise injuries occur in various ways, which are classified based on either the body tissue damaged or the cause of the injury.  When classifying injuries based on the cause, it falls under three categories.…

The use of exercise to reduce the a1c level of patients with type 2 diabetes   WEEK 5 The physiological effect of the different regiment of exercise on hemoglobin A1C in patients with type 2 diabetes forms the bases of my clinical research question. Aerobic exercises on patients with type II diabetes have a significant impact on HbA1C, BMI, and Vo2 max (P<0.05) (Snowling, & Hopkins,2016). Compared with those patients who do not exercise, the HbA1C was found to reduce significantly while BMI and Vo2 levels improved. In the articles I based on evidence-based research, I found that exercise helps improve glycemic control, body composition, and cardiovascular fitness among patients with T2DM. Further research is needed to evaluate the long term effects of exercise on biological indicators of the patients. The decrease in the level of health behaviors like physical exercise and nutrition is the current cause of increasing lifestyle-related chronic physical and psychological problems. I found that aerobic workouts have a significant effect on the metabolism of nutrients, and particularly diminishing the blood glucose levels. Therefore, regular exercises play…

Change4life obesity The purpose of this paper will examine the effect of Obesity, and recent initiatives in the U.K. adapted to ensure positive outcomes. It will discuss how the Change4Life approach has worked in reducing Obesity since its inception. The initiative was a social marketing campaign aimed to reframe Obesity as a matter of national concern requiring the participation of all stakeholders to curb the worrying trends in the country. Comparing obesity estimates in Great Britain and Northern Ireland among individuals above twenty years: 64.2 were overweight and 26.9 obese. Among the proportion of overweight’s, 67.7 % were men, and 60.8 % were women, while those who were obese consisted of 26 % men and 27.7 % women. The prevalence forecast between 2010-2030 projected that by 2020 the number of obese men and women would reach 36 % and 33 %, respectively (NHS.2017). Two-thirds of adults in the U.K. were either overweight or obese. An analysis of other groups consisting of Adolescents and children also showed a rising number of overweight and obesity prevalence. Although this number is on the…

Cultural Exploitation People, entities or corporations may adopt the practices and customs of a community or society without providing due acknowledgement or misusing them (Johnson & M.Z., 2015). Cultural exploitation is synonymous with cultural appropriation. While cross-cultural sharing of practices and ideas has been encouraged, the use of these practices without the consent or with disregard to the feelings of the said culture is viewed as exploitation. The practices and customs may include the traditional dressing pattern of a community, their music, food, skills and knowledge, and other areas of that culture (Johnson & M.Z., 2015). The roots of cultural exploitation, especially for the Aboriginal population in Canada, have been identified to be the colonization and the ongoing oppression of the people. This has been evident with the use of symbols that are culturally significant to the Aboriginals in the design of non-indigenous products. The images of these communities have also been used in sports logos, with the particular sport having no relevance to the Aboriginal people. In the instance of the Aboriginals, appropriation acts of colonialism applied the perceived…
