Perception
Today, after talking to one of the coaches, i realized just how different perception is. Especially within one cultural group. (And football is like a sub-group of a culture hah!) I found that a lot of the stereotypes we have about football players are not actually from the football players themselves (though i suppose can be, always exceptions!) but some of it is from the coaches! I hope you guys all get to read my paper because i feel like it's going to be really long, packed with info and SUPER good! I'm not sure this is a knowledge issue (beginning was tee hee) but i just had to post this :)

First of all, I wonder how many people have noticed that "perception" is probably the most common topic of our blog posts.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm not sure if you can brag yet that your paper will be "SUPER good", but you do seem very excited and have picked a solid ethnography topic. I'd like to know more about what the coaches have to do with perpetuating stereotypes.
