Project 3: Football: the paid and the pain
Football is a sport that all Americans love. We watch every Sunday and love to watch our favorite teams beat others. We lose our minds over dumb flag calls and other rules breaks. However, a question has come up that separates football fans; should children be allowed to play contact/tackle football? Football fans are completely divided regarding this issue. Some says that children should be allowed because kids gains so many benefits from playing football and other sports. Others say they shouldn't because of the health consequences. Another big aspect of football is the patriotism. Every game starts with the American flag spread over the field and The Star-Spangled Banner. However, not everyone agrees that the patriotism that the NFL shows is good patriotism. Some think that it is Paid Patriotism. Paid Patriotism is the act of showing surface level patriotism. My art project is a boycott poster on why kids shouldn't play football. My english piece is an essay on why kids shouldn't play football. My social studies part is a essay on paid patriotism.
