Kent State had a great season, but if they're good enough for the @NITMBB, then @MiamiOH_BBall certainly is, too.
@NITMBB riddle me this...@MiamiOH_BBall submitted bid to host and participate in the NIT. We finish 25-9 and 14-4 in @MACSports
If you did not want to take a MAC team ok, but then you take one that we beat 3 times and finished 3 games better than in the standings? @TimDuncanAD
It is interesting to see that the refs have favored the Eagles in their past few games, and it is easy to assume there is strategic reasoning and cheating involved based on the other scandals we learned about in class. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
This tweet talks about how officials for the NFL have favored the Eagles in recent weeks with many more calls on the opposing teams and more missed calls against the Eagles. This is strategic reasoning as to give the Eagles a competitive advantage. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSLAM225
This is a good example of sportsmanship in NFL, which is usually an aggressive competitive sport. Personally, i always enjoy when the head coach and QBs of each team shake hands at the end of the game at the 50. Cool read! @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
Great example of sportsmanship by Nick Sirianni. Even after winning in big game, still takes the time to show respect for the opposing coach. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSLAM225
While doing this assignment it was interesting to see the amount of gamesmanship that is seen in football, which most likely stems from the high levels of aggression or cathartic aggression. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
This article covers drug testing which we talked about in class, but allegedly the officials tested him purposefully before his race in order to get him off his best performance, which is strategic thinking in order to gain an advantage. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
Novak Djokovic has criticised anti-doping officials for the “shameful” decision to notify him that he had been selected for drugs testing 90 minutes before he was scheduled to face Cameron Norrie in the Davis Cup on Thursday

This tweet chain shows that multiple collegiate athletes are charged with felony crimes after acts of hazing, which are aggressive tactics prevalent in many of our top athletic intuitions that we addressed in class. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
BREAKING: Former New Mexico State basketball players Deshawndre Washington, Doctor Bradley and Kim Aiken Jr. have all been charged with over 10 felony crimes stemming from AG investigation.

This tweet surrounds the Michigan Sign Cheating Scandal, but goes into further detail about toxic winning cultures of Michigan's football team. The video also shows the coaches's social character of rubbing it in osu's face after winning. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
@Space7not8@anthonytbroome He needs to set positive examples for the players and other staff. But sports in our country has lost its way. Winning at any cost has become the norm and taking cheap shots, cheating, lying, and mocking the opponent has become the norm.
Oklahoma City Thunder is receiving backlash after letting their player play after receiving Sexual Assault allegations. All in all, assuming that the coach used strategic reasoning to decide that Giddey playing was worth the controversy. @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSlam225
T.J. Watt, although a defensive beast, is arguably an example of Gamesmanship, which is looking for any way to possibly gain an advantage, even if doing so involves the practice of winning games by questionable means @Econ_Sport_Prof#MiamiSLAM225
