Not Only Their Physical Abilities Matter

The title of the blog that I read was, "The Works: LeBron James Does Battle With Himself." This particular blog involves an infamous "tweet" that LeBron James posted last Tuesday after an epic loss by his recruiting team, the Cleaveland Cavaliers. LeBron goes about posting a considerably offensive statement that simply says: Karma is a bitch. Media and fans shocked that such a great player could have done this, he tries to redeem himself by saying that it was his friends advice and he was merely repeating them. The article continues by demonstrating other coincidences that LeBron shows cockiness and indifference to other teams/players. I thought the title is very fitting for this article because it shows that professional athletes have to comport themselves on and off the pitch, something that many of them never understand. And so this article shows that LeBron is in a "battle with himself" because of all the negative media attention. Well, the author supports his article with other situations and quotes other happenings that tie into what he wants to say.
I chose to compare the previous blog to one that is of another NBA scandal its title is, "Gilbert Arenas Trade: Is Locker Room Gun Scandal An Issue For Orlando Magic?" The title is very specific and a new reader will automatically know what he's going to be reading. After comparing both articles I think that the first article is definitely more suitable and reader friendly, in other words, it gives a more depth explanation and a more thorough description of what happened.
The final blog post that seemed interesting and compatible with both previous blog entries is titled, "NBA Referee Gambling Scandal Bigger than Donaghy?" When I first read this title I knew exactly what I was going to be informed about, but I realized that if I had never heard of the referee scandal then the title would not be as concise as we would want it to be. I then began to think that this article was written for a very select audience, its to say, this article was written for those who wanted to investigate further on the subject, and who already were familiar with the controversy. The blog post itself was in fact very enlightening and I learned that there were about a dozen more referees involved, something that I could have never fathomed of a professional sport. I then began to think, when has this method of fixing mathces started? What championship games, finals, superbowls, world cups, and world series have been rigged towards one side? This scandal obviously started a huge dilemma in all professional sports and till today has not been solved.
Yes, I think this is a good blog because it states a problem that occured in the NBA a few weeks back and it has quotes that support the controversy. Not only does it provide the reader with background information but it also gives the reader quotes of the people involved and these quotes give credibility that what the author is writing isn't a fallacy. I say, that there is always room for improvement in anything we do. So, the author could have maybe given us more information about what actually happened during the incident. Aside from little things, this article was very well written.
