  • Generalsports Venue Dedicates Manning Field
    GENERALSPORTS VENUE DEDICATES MANNING FIELD BUILT BY ASTROTURF AT NICHOLLS STATE UNIVERSITY Installation of State-of-the-Art AstroTurf Playing Surface Benefits Nicholls State and Manning Passing Academy RALEIGH, N.C. (July 18, 2007) – Jon Pritchett, CEO of GENERALSPORTS VENUE (GSV), the exclusive U.S. marketer of AstroTurf products, together with AstroTurf brand ambassador and legendary NFL quarterback Archie Manning and his sons Peyton, Eli and Cooper, officially dedicated the new Manning Field built by AstroTurf on Friday, July 13 at John L. Guidry Stadium at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, La., home of the annual Manning Passing Academy. The new field, an AstroTurf GameDay Grass 3D synthetic turf surface valued at about $700,000, is one of the most advanced synthetic sports turf surfaces in the world and was specially selected for the installation. The dedication took place during the Manning’s summer football camp for high school quarterbacks, receivers and tight ends, where special offensive skills are taught by some of the top college and pro athletes and coaches in the country. GameDay Grass 3D utilizes a proprietary technology called RootZone™, a nylon thatch layer at the base coupled with a monofilament polyethylene long fiber, the replicates natural grass. The density of the RootZone, providing stability, cushion and consistent performance over time, means that less granulated infill is required, reducing the problems related to infill migration and “fly-out”. The nylon-polyethylene hybrid construction also serves to

  • Dixie's Last Stand
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: DIXIE’S LAST STAND: OLE MISS, THE BODY, AND THE SPECTACLE OF DIXIE SOUTH WHITENESS Joshua Isaac Newman, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: Professor David L. Andrews Department of Kinesiology The interrelated studies within this dissertation provide new insights into the problematic nature of identity and the political disposition of the performative body in the contemporary American South. In particular, this research project will expand upon an emergent critical sociology of the South, particularly by interrogating the sporting and physical cultures of the University of Mississippi (‘Ole Miss’)—an institution which has historically functioned to discipline and authorize a preferred culture of the segregated body and the segregation of physical cultures. By investigating the genealogical ascendancy of whiteness at the University, as well as the more contemporaneous materializations of iniquitous social hierarchies, this dissertation disrupts ‘traditional’ notions of representation, subjectivity, and identity at Ole Miss. Looking beyond black and white, past the conventions of modern identity theory, this study interrupts the binaries of race and gender and reconsiders the dominant subject positions which actively shape the social experience on the Ole Miss campus. Through analysis of local cultural physicalities, namely the celebrity discourses of sporting icons Archie and Eli Manning and Confederate Civil War heroes such as the ‘University Greys,’ the symbolic embodiments of the Ole Miss brand (from the waving of the Confederate flag to the caricatured physicalities of the sporting mascot, Colonel Rebel), the complex relations between the student body and the campus space, and the spectacular practices of corporeal whiteness, this dissertation empirically identifies and theoretically criticizes the disciplinary regimes of power which normalize and marginalize the cultural experiences of the Ole Miss student subject.

  • (Peyton) Manning
    My Sportsman: Denver Broncos' Peyton Manning By Peter King SI.com November 26, 2013 Sports Illustrated will announce its choice for 2013's Sportsman of the Year on Dec. 16. Here's one of the nominations for that honor by an SI writer. Peyton Manning ended his 2012 season last January when his heavily-favored Denver Broncos were stunned in the AFC playoffs by Baltimore. It was Manning's interception, on a throw across his body that was a bad idea, that led to the double-overtime Denver loss. And as I write this, Manning is flying home from New England. His Broncos blew a 24-point lead in Foxboro on a Sunday night and lost to the Patriots 34-31. That made his personal scoreboard with Tom Brady 10-4 in Brady's favor. Manning didn't blow the game, but he didn't win it either, and he had his chances. Well, that's a resounding nomination for Sportsman of the Year. I mean, Chad Henne wasn't available? I love this award. Since I began subscribing (age 12, 1969, "Namath Weeps"), I always looked forward to the annual Sportsman issue, because it advanced the ideals of sport. A great athlete or coach could be a good person too. Some better than others at the athletics, or at the person part, or both. But there had to be something inherently good about the winner, and I liked that. So over the years, if the managing editor at the time asked me for a nomination from pro football, I would give it thought and advance only the causes of those I thought were worthy.
