    Once he was finished with high school he earned a scholarship from Southern Mississippi which was the only scholarship offered to him. During his freshman year he started the season as a seventh string quarterback. Favre looked to take over the starting position in the first half of the third game. Although suffering a hangover he led the team to a comeback win. In his third season with the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles Favre upset the 6th ranked Florida State Seminoles. Brett Favre threw the game winning pass with just 23 seconds left as he put up a six and a half minute drive. Just before Brett Favre’s senior year start he had one of the scariest things happen in his life. Brett Favre lost control of his car going around a turn near his house. His car flipped three times and finally stopped resting on a tree. One of Brett’s brothers busted the window out and was taken to a hospital on an ambulance. On the ride to the hospital Favre just kept asking his mom if he will ever be able to play football again. Favre had to get emergency surgery and the doctors removed thirty inches of his intestines. Favre then hosted a comeback win over the Alabama Rolling Tide. After the game Alabama Head coach Gene Stallings said “You can call it a miracle or a legend or whatever you want. I just know on that day Brett Favre was larger than life.” At the end of Favre’s career at Southern Mississippi he holds a bunch of records and earned a…

    Tom Brady Rhetorical Analysis

    Wasn't actually addressing you Paul, but that you think so lends further credence to my comment. Look... I don't care what you see or don't see. It's your perception. You're allowed to have it. But it reminds me of my work. I write and talk about the NFL, a world in which Tom Brady is both the greatest of all time and the biggest cheater to ever live. And as I scroll through my social media, it appears many of us view everything the way we do team sports. If we're not fans of something, it's not enough to just not like it. We must despise. Dehumanize it. Belittle it. Hate it... I find it all quite fascinating. But I just observe. No rooting interest here. So again, carry…

    Brett Favre is a great role model because he was a tough and hardworking football player. After high school Favre went to play for Southern Mississippi in 1987 Favre is a tough player, after a hard hit he would get right up and keep playing, never giving a sign of any weakness. The summer before his senior year of Southern Mississippi, Favre was in a near fatal car crash, rolling his car three times before hitting a tree. He was then rushed to the emergency room to have thirty inches of his small intestine removed. His first words to his mother were “Will I be able to play football again” (‘’Brett Favre’’).…

    Bernie Sanders Speech Analysis

    At the Bernie Sanders rally, he used a variety of techniques while presenting to the group. I noticed when he hit key talking points in his argument; he would use his hands that would elicit a stronger reaction from the crowd. He read his audience demographics well by hitting on housing cost, minimum wage and the high cost of tuition (all very important concerns of college students). However, there were some points he made I felt to be confusing. At one point in his speech, he mentioned how Native Americans were taken advantage of in the past. He tried to say that we should follow the Native American’s lessons and live with nature (and not destroy it with fossil fuel and natural gas exploration). It seemed he used a fallacy to connect two…

    Rfk Speech Rhetorical Analysis

    Robert Kennedy’s speech on the Vietnam War on March 18, 1968 addresses the dire consequences of the war. His speech criticized the actions taken by Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson. RFK’s speech uses parallel structure and other rhetorical devices to appeal to the audience’s emotion, logic, and ethics. The use of parallel structure throughout the speech contributes to RFK’s views of the Vietnam War. “.. a year when we choose not simply who will lead us, but where we wish to be led; the country we want for ourselves- and the kind we want for our children.” This quote is a call to the American people to step up and not only be heard on their views on a president by voting, but to speak up on their views of the morality and direction of our country to keep this country good for not only them, but for generations to come. He uses parallel structure to persuade his audience to take his side in ending the Vietnam War. Another quote RFK uses to persuade his audience to end the Vietnam War is,” I am concerned- as I believe most Americans are concerned- that we are acting as if no other nations existed, against the judgement... I am concerned- as I believe most…

    Vince Lombardi, head coach of the Green Bay Packers during the 1960’s, stated, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence”. This holds true for many aspects of life, whether it be writing an essay for an English class, maintaining an image in society, or progressing a career, quality of life is a constant struggle.
