  • The Sidney Effect: Competitive Youth Hockey and Fantasy Relationships
    The Sidney Effect: Competitive Youth Hockey and Fantasy Relationships by Matthew John Ross Theoret A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Public Issues Anthropology Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2009 © Matthew John Ross Theoret 2009 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This thesis explores how a group of 17 male youth athletes, and their families, experience competitive hockey. Many of the youths seem to forge fantasy relationships with hockey celebrities, heroes, and stars – e.g. Sidney Crosby – emulating them with regard to the “best” attitudes, equipment, and styles of play to have or use. Their parents invest considerable amounts of money and time into their sons’ participation in hockey, not because they necessarily share their sons’ dreams of athletic stardom, but because they hope that it will help instill community-defined “positive” values into their sons—tools needed to become “successful” youths and, eventually, adults. iii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I want to thank the anthropology department’s faculty and staff at the University of Waterloo for two great years. I am particularly grateful to my primary supervisor, Dr. Harriet Lyons. Taking her advice to switch thesis topics was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The dedication and support that she gives to her students is second to none.

  • Odd Baseball Events Odd Home Run Events Intentional Base on Balls (IBB) Trivia
    Odd Baseball Events Odd Home Run Events Intentional Base on Balls (IBB) Trivia Chapter 12 The interesting facts following Chapter 12 look at some strange outcomes and events in baseball. The chapter closes with a discussion of the intentional bases on balls (IBB). The IBB statistic took on new importance due to Barry Bonds. In fact Barry Bonds received an intentional base on balls with the bases loaded. From Baseball to Oddball Herb Washington, a pinch runner for the Oakland Athletics, appeared in 105 games during the 1974 and 1975 seasons. He stole 31 bases and scored 33 runs, but never batted once. Robin Yount drove in exactly 77 runs in three successive seasons (1990-1992). Rickey Gutierrez had a batting average of.261 for Houston for three consecutive seasons. He was 79 for 303 in 1997, 128 for 491 in 1998, and 70 for 268 in 1999. Luis Castillo batted .334 (180 for 539) for the Florida Marlins in 2000. What makes this statistic so unusual is he only drove in 17 runs. This amount of RBIs is the fewest for any batter with a .300 average and over 500 at-bats. Harry Heilmann won the American League batting title in four consecutive odd- numbered years. Heilmann’s average was .394 in 1921, .403 in 1923, .393 in 1925, and .398 in 1927. Carlos Delgado’s first Major League home run came on April 4, 1994 and was the only home run he hit in that game. The100th, 200th, and 300th home runs he belted had a very unusual pattern.
