  • Analyzing Sometimes It's Helpful to Start by Summarizing the Work in One Sentence, Just So You're Sure What's Going On
    2 CHAPTER 2 • CLOSE READING Of joy, & we knew we were Beautiful & dangerous. 40 {1992) Analyzing Sometimes it's helpful to start by summarizing the work in one sentence, just so you're sure what's going on. In "Slam, Dunk, & Hook," the speaker expresses how basketball provided an escape from his life's troubles. Clearly, even this initial statement engages in a certain level of interpretation-not only does it state that the poem is about basketball, but it also draws the inference that the speaker's life was troubled and that basketball was his means of escape. The next step is examining what makes the poem more complex than this brief summary. How does Komunyakaa convey a sense of exuberance? of joy? of danger? How does he make the situation something we feel rather than just read about? Let's begin our analysis by thinking a bit about the poem's title. It's all about action, about moves. But a "slam dunk" is just one move, so why is there a comma between "Slam" and "Dunk"? Does this construction anticipate the rhythm in the poem itself? Our next consideration could be the speaker, who is evidently reflect­ ing on a time in his youth when he played basketball with his friends. The speaker describes the "metal hoop" that was "Nailed to [their] oak" and a backboard "splin­ tered" by hard use. We're not in the world of professional sports or even in the school gym. You will probably notice some things about the poem as a whole, such as its short lines, strong verbs, and vivid images.

  • The Unseen Play the Game to Win 03/22/2017
    The Unseen Play the Game to Win 03/22/2017 Play the Game to Win What Rick Barry and the Atlanta Falcons can teach us about risk management “Something about the crowd transforms the way you think” – Malcolm Gladwell - Revisionist History With 4:45 remaining in Super Bowl LI, Matt Ryan, the Atlanta Falcons quarterback, threw a pass to Julio Jones who made an amazing catch. The play did not stand out because of the way the ball was thrown or the agility that Jones employed to make the catch, but due to the fact that the catch eas- ily put the Falcons in field goal range very late in the game. That reception should have been the play of the game, but it was not. Instead, Tom Brady walked off the field with the MVP trophy and the Patriots celebrated yet another Super Bowl victory. NBA basketball hall of famer Rick Barry shot close to 90% from the free throw line. What made him memorable was not just his free throw percentage or his hard fought play, but the way he shot the ball underhanded, “granny-style”, when taking free throws. Every basketball player, coach and fan clearly understands that the goal of a basketball game is to score the most points and win. Rick Bar- ry, however, was one of the very few that understood it does not matter how you win but most im- portantly if you win. The Atlanta Falcons crucial mistake and Rick Barry’s “granny” shooting style offer stark illustrations about how human beings guard their egos and at times do imprudent things in order to be viewed favorably by their peers and the public.

  • Position Paper on New NCAA Rules Regarding Rebound/Elasticity Testing of Competition Goals
    Position Paper on New NCAA Rules Regarding Rebound/Elasticity Testing of Competition Goals Beginning in the early 1990s, it was observed within competition basketball circles that there was a significant inconsistency in the playability of basketball rims from facility to facility and even from one end of the court to the other. At that time, effort began to collect data and develop a standard and a method to test to that standard to insure fair and consistent play from court to court. An independent development lab under the guidance of a member of the NCAA rules committee worked for a number of years to develop a tool and a standard that appropriately measures how the ball bounces off the front lip of the basketball ring. This research and development was funded by various entities with Porter Athletics ultimately being the primary funder. Porter currently has exclusive rights to market the only available testing device. Up until approximately the year 2000, both NCAA and National Federation of High School rules required all breakaway rims to be factory preset, non-field adjustable and breakaway only when 230# of force is applied to the front of the ring. This rule had been in place since the earliest days of breakaway rim use in the early 1980s. It failed to consider that 1) 230# was a higher setting than was acceptable to most players and did not protect older glass backboards as intended, 2) over time all breakaway rim designs wear and get loose or soft, 3) there was no rule that stated what happens if the ring did not meet the 230# standard either as new or after use.
