Coach Coming to Town:

Most people would say that when Coach Boone came into town it was a wrong thing, from my point it was the breakthrough for a lot of change and progression in town. If it wasn’t for Coach Boone becoming the new coach the town would of never realized the value of teamwork with the football players, the meaning of that it’s just not about race, and leadership. Coach Boone showed all of these traits throughout the movie, and this makes him going and being the new coach a wonderful change in the community. When Coach Boone came into town the football team was not getting along at all. Everyone in the community was against the fact that he couldn’t run the team, and since he was African American no one would respect him. As the movie progressed Coach Boone made the team get to know one another. Making them do drills and taking a long run during the cold morning made them understand that they were a team, not just an individual. Going to camp really made them work as a team and learn the meaning of teamwork. They was forced to put their differences aside and come together, because at the end of the day it was all about what they loved; which was football. When they came back from camp, they was one, a team! They learned to communicate, and make true decisions …show more content…
When he came there he was making a huge difference in the community. If it wasn’t for him, then the team wouldn’t of been able to get through their differences and come together. He also impacted the older adults in the community. He showed them that even if they did whatever in their power to try to break him he still was going to coach, and that showed courage and dedication that the team needed to see. When he and the other coaches didn’t see eye to eye, he showed them that just because he was a different race, he couldn’t be a good example to the football

    Jackie Robinson's Book 'I Never Had It Made'

    He had to be able to stand up in the face of merciless persecution and not retaliate” After reading about his early life, it is not amazing that he had the athletic talent but that he could actually take verbal and physical abuse for two long years without ever defending himself. During his early career he experienced vicious taunts, bottle throwing, inability to get adequate accommodations or food while traveling with the team as well as biased reporting, all because he was a black man in a white privileged nation. To me this seemed a stark contrast to the young Army officer, so it really showcased his ability to sacrifice self for future generations and this is a rare quality. It reminded me of the philosophy and tactics of Martin Luther King Jr., C.O.R.E. and S.N.C.C. as they were fighting racism peacefully. He did finally reach a point when he could self- advocate and speak out against players, fans and the press about his differential treatment based on his skin color.…

    Summary Of The Poem Execution By Edward Hirsh

    So many different plays are called during a football game in order to increase the team’s chances of winning the competition. In Edward Hirsh’s poem “Execution,” a much more difficult battle is being waged against the coach. The narrator’s use of structure, tone, and symbolic meaning helps the reader to essentially level with them and understand the gravity of the situation that the coach and everyone else is in now. Some of the most basic fundamental tasks can lead you to victory on a football field. Throughout the poem, the narrator uses a free verse structure that is one of the essential elements of poetry.…

    Coach Kevin Kanipe Analysis

    Coach of the Century Tom Landry once said, “A coach is someone who tells you what you don’t want to hear, and has you see what you don’t want to be, so you can be who you have always known what you can be.” Kevin Kanipe, “Coach Kevin”, is the most relevant man when you see that quote because he assists oh helping young athletic softball players, uses his spare time to coach, and helps getting these softball athletes getting recruited. When I first got introduced to Mr. Kanipe I was in ninth grade. I did not know of him but it made me wish I did a lot sooner. My former high school coach mentioned me to him so he can see what I was capable of.…

    Remember The Titans: Discussion Questions

    Though at the start I thought that making Coach Boone head coach was the wrong decision for many reasons including him being black. Now my opinions have changed because the season was great. It was rough at the start we then grew as a team and we did pretty good in the season. Coach Boone pushed us and made us bond as a team and I think that had a big toll on our team because after that our whole team was bonded, except for Ray. Ray had different beliefs than the rest of us and treated the blacks different, so we kicked him off the team so we could do better.…

    There is also a difference between the needs of a college student and a high school student which can also be a challenge for new college coach coming from high school.

    Our Town Play Analysis

    Thursday, October, 8, 2015, I was privileged with the opportunity to see the production, Our Town, written by Thornton Wilder, and directed by Rose Riordan. Our Town takes place in a small town called Grover’s Corner in the early 1900’s. Our Town is presented in a much different manor than most plays today. Instead of changing sets and meticulously hand painted backdrops, the actors use nothing but some chairs and a pair of ladders. The storyline of the play is intriguing, but not so much as the elaborate use of chairs and ladders as the only props.…

    The speech are really motivational in order to support and help the players to reach the goal. To become one unit. The most important dialogue is the one at the end of the training camp on the Gettysburg field where coach Boone talks to the players heart to heart. This clip is a great example of how dialogue and with the help of the shots can be used to show the integration and realization of the team. While coach Boone is talking the camera give us close-ups of him talking showing us and the players his emotions; the camera switches between him and the players to show us also how the player are reaction to his speech.…

    Remember The Dog In The Night Time Analysis

    When challenged with the arrival of new school boards, all black schools were forced to integrate with all white schools causing disturbances that could jeopardise their treasured football tradition. Although racism is heavily addressed throughout the film, the purpose of it is much more than that, it’s the realisation that of we are able to put our diversities in culture behind us, we can work together as a team, as a community. After arrival at the camp and Coach Boones buddy system is put into place, Julius begins putting a Black Power salute poster on the wall. Gary gets irritated by this and tells him to take it down “I ain't looking at that for two weeks’ man. Take it down,” he says.…

    Our Town Play Analysis

    Algona High School’s production of “Our Town” by playwright Thornton Wilder shows that life in itself is beautiful and interesting, but that humans take it for granted every day. This is shown by the activities of everyday people living in Grover’s Corner, New Hampshire. This play shows that even the most mundane tasks and daily activities are still valuable and significant in life, and that though you may not see the end coming, it will come, and that this life we have is transient. The first scene starts with the Stage Manager, who acts as the narrator, directly telling the audience the setting, which is Grover’s Corner, New Hampshire. The date is the 7th of May, 1901.…

    Remember The Titans Reflection

    There were two main problems that had to be solved in the film. First, both the black and white players on the T.C. Williams High School football team had to work together to create a successful team. Each player was required to change their attitude and open their mind for this to be possible. I believe Coach Boone’s coaching was the solution to this problem. His coaching style was to the point, intense, and equal towards all players.…
