Sport: The Original Reality Tv - More Death On The Overheated Football Fields, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The latest in the "Survivor" series is currently being filmed in Kenya, where locals are amused and confused by the notion that survival in their everyday environment has been turned into a ludicrous game show by Americans. Indeed the reality television craze seems to be hitting new levels of unreality everyday.

Communicating About Mass Communication: A National Study Of The Content, Functionality, And Value Of University Mass Communication Program World Wide Web Sites, Douglas J. Swanson

Journalism

A study was undertaken to assess college and university mass communication program World Wide Web site content, functionality, and value, and to gauge faculty members' opinions related to Web site creation and maintenance. Descriptive statistics, analysis of variance and t-tests were used to address three hypotheses relating to Web site use by academic programs and related perceptions of social order by faculty: Most programs had an operational Web site. Site enhancements varied widely while most faculty members' opinions were thematically consistent.

This weekend would have been a time of great celebration for Minnesota sports fans, but instead it will be bitter sweet. Two of Minnesota's favorite athletes are being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.

Wwjs What Would Jesus Sell (For Sports), Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

In a recent interview Deion Sanders, the guru of Jesus jocks, said that he doesn't see how he could have sports in his life without religion. "They go together like peanut butter and jelly."

Origins Of Baseball Revealed - Trying To Speed Up The Game, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The heat and humidity of late July is sending me slouching towards the Dog Days of August. The dread miasma is creeping in from the swamps and the vapors hang in the saturated night air. The tropics of Central Florida drain your energy and create hallucinatory conditions. Some days it's so bad that not a creature is stirring not even The Mouse.

Knight Commission: Another Futile Attempt To Reform College Athletics, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Once again the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics has issued a call for reform. As was the case with the Jeremiad Sermons of the 17th Century Puritans, the call for reform has become a ritual whose primary function is to cleanse the sinner so that they might go forth and sin again. Any real prospect of reform and change is as remote in intercollegiate athletics today as it was for the debauched sinners in the Massachusetts of the Mathers. Or as they used to say in rural America, the horse has long since left the barn.

Baseball's All-Star Game: Some History, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Baseball's All-Star Game is coming up Tuesday at Safeco Field in Seattle, one of the newest, and by most accounts one of the most beautiful of the new stadiums: "The House that Junior and A-Rod Built" before they left town.

Eddie Scissons Syndrome, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Over a decade ago Rob Sheinkopf and I examined Eddie Scissons Syndrome and its many manifestations in American society. This piece was published in Aethlon: The Journal of Sport Literature, after having been presented at a meeting of the Sport Literature Association in Florence, Oregon. A little over a week ago Rob offered an update of this peculiarity of human folly at the SLA meeting in Johnson City.

Tiger Woods Is God: Check The Website, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Quick, tell me the name of the golfer who won the U.S. Open last week. Now which golfer didn't win? If you are like most casual golf watchers you couldn't name the winner, but you knew that Tiger Woods did not win. My guess is that you could not name either of the players who were in the Monday playoff. And furthermore, like much of the rest of America, you did not watch the final round of the tournament on Sunday, nor the Monday playoff.

After several years as a reporter, I became disenchanted with my life choices and became an intern with the Catholic peace organization Pax Christi International in Belgium. It was a transition that proved both challenging and rewarding.

While I was discovering the physical peace work through Pax Christi I was also embarking on an inner journey to find personal peace with my decisions and myself.

Hockey Night In Orlando: The End For The Ihl, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Whenever I went off to see the Solar Bears of the International Hockey League in the O-rena, I liked to think of it as "Hockey Night in Orlando." With much fanfare and enthusiasm the Orlando Solar Bears opened play in the IHL six seasons ago. Two weeks ago they won the Turner Cup signifying the championship of the IHL. A few days later the IHL was out of business, and then two days ago the Solar Bears announced their exit from the scene.

Homosexuality And Sport, Richard C. Crepeau

It was not a big story but it did set the sports talk shows buzzing for a few days and some print was expended on it. Brendon Lemon, editor of Out magazine let it be known that he has been involved in an affair with a major league baseball player, and that he just might reveal the identity of that player.

The Chess Ban In Minneapols Sparks Protest, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

By all accounts it was a normal day at the Minneapolis Public Library. Nothing out of the ordinary seemed in the air. Then suddenly there was shouting, a shower of obscenities, and a general ruckus over in one crowded section of the main reading room. No, Governor Ventura had not arrived.
