  • 2020 Eddie and Jared's Sports Packet.Pdf
    2020 Eddie and Jared’s Sports Packet Written by Edward Fuhrer, Jared Carson and with one tossup contributed by Josh Rubel 1. One hockey player from this country who dominated its domestic league in the 1970s and 1980s contract was too expensive to be bought by the New York Islanders, and his son ended up being a 4th round pick in the 2010 NHL Draft to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Another player from this country was the youngest player on Team Europe in the 2016 World Cup of Hockey by almost three years. Other than (*) Tom Kuhnhackl and Tobias ​ Reider, other players from this country include Marcel Goc and Marko Strum, who led this country to a silver medal in the 2018 Winter Olympics. The leading scorer in the 2019-20 NHL season, Leon Draisaitl, was from, for ten points, what country where domestic teams play in cities like Munich and Berlin. ANSWER: Federal Republic of Germany [ACCEPT: West or East Germany, or ​ ​ ​ ​ Bundesrepublik Deutschland] (EF) 2. This trade sent running back Darrin Nelson to the San Diego Chargers, however, he would re-sign with one of the teams in this trade. This trade allowed for one team to draft wide receiver Jake Reed, who would put up a total of almost seven thousand total yards and 36 touchdowns. This trade saw a total of 18 total players being traded, making this an NFL record. As a result of this trade, one team used one of their first-round picks (*) acquired in the trade haul and trade up with the Pittsburgh Steelers to select future Hall of Famer, running back Emmitt Smith, allowing him to kickstart an NFL dynasty in the 1990s.

Professor Cristina Mislán Professor Sandy Davidson Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Becky Scott MASCULINITY AND THE NHL Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking my committee chair, Dr. Cristina Mislán, for her guidance and help throughout this project, and beyond. From the first class I took at Missouri, Mass Media Seminar, to the thesis itself, she encouraged me to see the world through different lenses and inspired a passion for cross-disciplined study. Her assistance was invaluable in completing this project. Next, I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Sandy Davidson, Dr. Amanda Hinnant and Dr. Becky Scott. All three members provided insight and feedback into different portions of the project at its early stages and each one made the study stronger. Dr. Davidson’s tireless support and enthusiasm was infectious and her suggestion to explore the legal concerns the NHL might have about violence and head injuries led me to explore the commoditization of players.

  • Turnbull Hockey Pool For
    Turnbull Hockey Pool for Each year, Turnbull students participate in several fundraising initiatives, which we promote as a way to develop a sense of community, leadership and social responsibility within the students. Last year's grade 7 and 8 students put forth a great deal of effort campaigning friends and family members to join Turnbull's annual NHL hockey pool, raising a total of $1750 for a charity of their choice (the United Way). This year's group has decided to run the hockey pool for the benefit of Help Lesotho, an international development organization working in the AIDS-ravaged country of Lesotho in southern Africa. From www.helplesotho.org "Help Lesotho’s programs foster hope and motivation in those who are most in need: orphans, vulnerable children, at-risk youth and grandmothers. Our work targets root causes and community priorities, including literacy, youth leadership training, school twinning, child sponsorship and gender programming. Help Lesotho is an effective, sustainable organization that is working at the grass-roots level to support the next generation of leaders in Lesotho." Your participation in this year's NHL hockey pool is very much appreciated. We believe it will provide students and their friends and families an opportunity to have fun together while giving back to their community by raising awareness and funds for a great cause. Prizes: > Grand Prize awarded to contestant whose team accumulates the most points over the regular NHL season = 10" Samsung Galaxy Tablet > Monthly Prizes awarded to the contestants whose teams accumulate the most points over each designated period (see website) = Two Movie Passes How it Works: > Everyone in the community is welcome to join in on the fun.

Basic things will be decided by a remote 'federal government' in Brussels and, for example, Czech citizens will be only a tiny particle whose voice and influence will be almost zero. … We are against a European superstate." - Czech President Vaclav Klaus, Mlada Fronta Dnes, 29-9-2003 "We've got to be explicit that the road to greater economic success does not lie in this cosy assumption that you can move from a single market through a single currency to harmonising all your taxes and then having a federal fiscal policy and then effectively having a federal State." - Gordon Brown, British Chancellor of the Exchequer, The Guardian, 5-11-2003 "An enlarged Union based on Nice is not in the interest of any Member State … This is not a threat.
