These five links all contributed to making my blog engaging and entertaining. The first link, which came from the Huffiington Post was a very reliable source. The Huffington Post delivers compelling news on subjects that range from politics to sports. The Huffington Post article contributed greatly to my blog post titled, Brain Injuries in the NFL. The article was able to clearly explain in my blog a new lawsuit being filed against the League and Riddell. I also liked this story because it makes sure that it's readers are aware that the NFL had just recently settled a lawsuit. The Huffington Post wrote the article magnificently and left me with no unanswered questions.
The Fox Sports article also lead to my blog being engaging and entertaining. Fox Sports is known for delivering high quality sports news, and they did not disappoint. I really liked how the Fox Sports article fit into my blog post, Brain Injures in the NFL. I felt the article fit in very well because it presented a different perspective to the story. The Huffington Post article discussed a lawsuit against the League and it's helmet maker. The Fox Sports article discussed a lawsuit against a particular team, the Kansas City Chiefs.
The third link I used in my blog post, Brain Injuries in the NFL was from the Chicago Tribune. Being a native of Chicago, Illinois, I am very much accustomed to the Tribune delivering great news stories, and even though my hometown changed, the news in the Tribune hasn't. The Chicago Tribune did a masterful job in telling their readers about the settlement between the NFL and it's former players. With the addition of this news story to my blog, I was able to connect the lawsuit described in the Huffington Post to the settlement described in the Chicago Tribune.
The fourth link I used in my blog post, Brain Injuries in the NFL did not provide my blog with information, but it did give my blog a photo that I feel readers will find very interesting.
The last link I used in my second blog post titled, An Inside look at Concussions was a YouTube video. The video was a Sport Science segment presented by ESPN. The video had a profound effect on me. Even though it was a short video, I learned a lot more about concussions and became even more passionate about the subject. I put this video on my blog hoping that it would have an effect on my readers the way it had an effect on me.
