SOC 318 Week 2 DQ 2 Deviance and Sports NEW

Deviance and Sports. We read and hear news reports about performance enhancing drug use in sports so regularly some may think all athletes are taking them. We also hear and read regular reports of athletes committing crimes and carrying unlawful weapons. Is deviance out of control in sports, or is deviance just behavior that’s interfering with the status quo and not really a problem to anyone other than wealthy people with property to protect? What’s your view? Explain your position incorporating data from the text and applying one of the theories discussed in Week One.

SOC 318 Week 4 DQ 2 The Media Sports Complex NEW

The Media/Sports Complex. Many suggest that media and sports are so interconnected each could not stand on its own. There is also no doubt our modern world of experience is at least partially informed by the media. But, how are sports and media interconnected? Do media influence sports related choices and actions? What is the social value of NFL’s Super Bowl, the MLB’s World Series, the PGA Tour/European PGA’s British Open, or the Olympics in full display on national television? How does sportsbetting exist without sports media? Explain your view using the sociological terms and elements you have learned to this point.

Should college sports be abolished? Explain your view using the sociological terms and elements you have learned to this point.

SOC 318 Week 5 Final Paper Movies and Sports (2 Papers) NEW

This Tutorial contains 2 Final Papers (Remembering the Titans and The Program)

Focus of the Final Paper
The Final Paper is based on assignment description below. Analysis of a sports motion picture
Prepare an eight- to ten- page paper in which you utilize information from the course, textbook, and at least four scholarly sources (in addition to the textbook) to analyze one of the approved motion pictures listed below, in detail. Specifically:
Explain the sociological processes you observe using two or more of the theories or models incorporated in this course (conflict theory, critical theory, cultural theory, feminist theory, gender classification model, etc.).
Discuss character examples of the personal functions of sports, including: a) feelings of belongingness and social identification; b) the socially acceptable outlet for hostile and aggressive feelings; and c) the role sport play as a cultural element to bring meaning to life.
Examine aspects of extra-sport character behavior and determine if such behaviors support sports stereotypes and/or deviant characteristics (i.e., deviant overconformity or deviant underconformity). Be sure to use examples of specific behaviors and situations that you observed to help describe and explain (theoretically) how these social functions were demonstrated.
As you watch the film, take notes concerning not only what you saw and heard, but also anything that occurred that was surprising to you. These notes will help you when you write your paper in terms of remembering specific instances and/or insights concerning fan behavior. In your field notes, be sure to include such things as the time, date, location, and environment in which you viewed the film. Attach your field notes to your final paper. If your field notes are not attached, you will lose points.
Approved motion pictures (you may request instructor approval if you would like to choose a different film*):
Remember the Titans Raging Bull
On the Ropes
The Sandlot
Hoop Dreams Any Given Sunday The Program
Bull Durham
*Special note: Sports comedies are not generally appropriate for this assignment.
