For each exercise, identify one AND ONLY ONE of our fallacies that is exhibited in that statement. GIVE A DETAILED EXPLANATION TO JUSTIFY YOUR CHOICE. 1.) "According to Joe Shlabotnik, the manager of the Waxahachie Walnuts, you should never call a hit and run play in the bottom of the ninth inning." 2.) "Are you going to major in history or are you going to major in mathematics?" 3.) "Bubba Sue is from Alabama. All girls from Alabama have two word first names." 4.) "Gosh, officer, I know I made an illegal left turn, but please don't give me a ticket. I've had a hard day, and I was just trying to get over to my aged mother's hospital room, and spend a few minutes with her before I report to my second full-time minimum-wage job, which I have to have as the sole support of my thirty-seven children and the nineteen members of my extended family who depend on me for food and shelter." 5.) "Former major league pitcher Ross Grimsley, nicknamed "Scuzz," would not wash or change any part of his uniform as long as the team was winning, believing that washing or changing anything would jinx the team." 6.) The part of a major league infield that is inside the bases is a square that is 90 feet on each side. What is its area in square centimeters? You must show the use of units and conversion factors.

  • In His First Season As Stanford's Head Coach, Jim
    INTRODUCTION SEASON OUTLOOK COACHING STAFF PLAYER PROFILESPLAYER 2007 REVIEW 2008 OPPONENTS RECORDS HISTORY UNIVERSITY In his fi rst season as Stanford’s head coach, Jim Harbaugh led the Cardinal to wins over top-ranked USC and defending Pacifi c-10 Conference co-champion California. WWW.GOSTANFORD.COM • 41 Jim HARBAUGH HEAD COACH Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football Stanford University im Harbaugh, who was appointed the Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football on JDecember 19, 2006, wasted little time in making a big impression in the college football circles in his first season as Stanford’s head coach. Stanford was one of the most improved teams in the Pacific-10 Conference last season under Harbaugh, whose infectious energy and enthusiasm immediately took hold of the program. The Cardinal finished with a 4-8 overall record and a 3-6 mark in conference play last season following a 2006 campaign which saw the team win just one game in 12 outings. Included in last year’s win total was an epic, 24-23 upset win over USC, ranked first in the USA Today Coaches poll and second by the Associated Press at the time, and a convincing win over defending Pac-10 Conference co-champion California, breaking the Bears five-game winning streak in the Big Game. While a pair of signature victories served notice Stanford’s program was again on the rise, Harbaugh is more than ready to push the envelope a little further this season as the Cardinal continue its journey to the upper echelon of a talent-rich conference in its quest to become perennial bowl participants.

    Volume 38, No. 2 Quarterly of the Alaska Historical Society Summer 2010 Message from the President Katie Ringsmuth Northern Pastime: Linking People, Places and the Past “We have observed several parties of youngsters playing base, a certain game of ball …Let us go forth awhile and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms …the game of ball is glorious.” Walt Whitman ersonally for me, summertime in Alaska evokes Africa, North, Central and South America, Asia, the Pacific memories of hiking trails lined with fireweed, Islands, and Australia. Indeed, as Burns put it, “the story of passing salmon-choked streams, and yes, playing the Game is the story of America.” baseball. I met my husband playing softball on the parkP strip, and for Mother’s Day this year we took our boys, Ben and Tom, to watch the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field. Although at age 40 “the Kid” was only batting a buck-eighty-four, we wanted the boys to be able to tell their kids that they once saw Ken Griffey Jr.—one of the Game’s greats—swing the bat during what is likely his last season. Put simply, we wanted to give our boys a lasting memory. It’s hard for a historian not to love baseball, for our national pastime is steeped in tradition. In his PBS documentary Baseball, Ken Burns showed us that baseball not only commemorates history, but has also shaped it. As the Game’s popularity soared around the turn of the twentieth century, the shared act of being a spectator of the sport helped teach newly-arrived immigrants how to be Americans.
