@KIN110UofR I'm of two minds when it comes down to Dr.Hoeber’s question: ”Are economic and environmental interests compatible?” On the one hand, I agree about carbon offsetting; however, Pettinger’s belief is the opposite. https://t.co/jYATtQvdNC
@LubyTyson@KIN110UofR@ganjapreneur In response, each athlete that committed to the restart should have been tested, whether it's for performance-enhancing drugs or recreational drugs. At the same time, playing at a world renowned entertainment complex, I believe the NBA shouldn’t have allowed the use of Cannabis.
@KIN110UofR Personal factors such as physical and mental training, poor nutrition, and recovery can all be controlled. On the other hand, environmental factors like temperature, allergens, pollution, and altitude cannot be controlled.https://t.co/1vxJq7iz8u
@KIN110UofR Briefly, this article explains how certain activities affect the environment: skydiving, soccer, NASCAR, hunting, skiing/ snowboarding, drag boat racing, and aerobatics. https://t.co/AzGpa1E5Sp
The new Mosaic Stadium’s price tag was set at $278.2 million. As stated by the city, the operational cost is between $4 million and $5 million per year. Over the next 30 years, the city expects the operational cost to be around $120 million and $150 million.
@KIN110UofR Research by Baird (2017) said that ”
In 2014, a .45 per cent mill rate was put in place with each budget and helps to fund the stadium. This mill rate increase is in place on a 10-year contract.” What are your thoughts? https://t.co/doYzHzX93v
@BorzelSalzl @KIN110UofR Hey Kaitlyn, thank you for sharing this. On Thursday I was supposed to play soccer at 10:30, but the new restrictions came into effect at noon. What is interesting to me is that my sister and brother were still able to participate in their sports that night.
Research by Fisher and Baker(2020) states that media in sports has been “dominated by whites, mostly male voices.”Including and involving everyone is done by disregarding one’s gender and sexuality, race and ethnicity. When will we see a significant difference?
@KIN110UofR Please read this article!
Mitchell Greene says, ”depression and anxiety are at epidemic proportions right now” (Dockett, 2020). Athletes such as Michael Phelps, Hope Solo, Abby Wambach, and Kevin Love are a select few who have opened up about their mental health.
@somda_ferdinand@KIN110UofR Diego Maradona, one of the greatest to ever play soccer, recently passed away. I'm not sure if you know who he is but he would classify as a politician using sports as their blueprint.

@michaelpalmari3@KIN110UofR Hey Micheal, #mentalhealth impacts the victim both on and off the field; for example, Antonio Brown has made a number of headlines due to his negative actions towards the police, football organizations, and women. It is key that he reaches out to the ones he loves.
@KIN110UofR Doping is an improper behaviour, which is why athletes who test positive receive severe consequences. Ten athletes were at the forefront of doping scandals in recent history: Maria Sharapova, Tyson Gay, Diego Maradona.... https://t.co/IJytuHTFgN
@jola94050499 @KIN110UofR Agreed! Gaining respect for athletes with a mental illness will allow not only them but others to open up more. The main goal is to make everyone feel accepted.
@KIN110UofR Not only does spectator violence escalate in the stadium but with modern technology, people have carried it beyond the game. All leagues must enforce strict regulations to make a stable environment. Please read this article to see how we can prevent fan violenice!
@ZoeD_Chen@KIN110UofR Hey Zoe, this article is an excellent resource for the presence of performance-enhancing drugs in sports. It is relieving to hear that organizations have many tools they use; although, when an individual is addicted to drugs, specifically illicit drugs, it is hard to stop them.
@mason68086468 @KIN110UofR That is definitely why the leagues consequences are way more severe then they use to be. I hope that it will reduce the percentage of players ending up with CTE.
