English Assignment

Krista Ramsey writes a article that talks about how football players can lower their concussion rate. Cincinnati football players use peripheral vision exercises to help the players see their blind side so they can decrease their concussion rate.

"Vision training, as it's called, has been around for decades, used to train Air Force pilots, rehabilitate stroke victims and improve athletic performance." In this quote she talks about the importance of your peripheral vision and how it can effect your life. She also talks about how that the Air Force even does these vision exercises so that they can protect themselves from danger.
In Ramsey's first article I read "For better vision, kids need time outdoors" it also talks about peripheral vision and how teenagers being on their phones can effect their vision by staring at their phones. "When you use less and less of the peripheral retinal cells, less and less signal gets to the brain from that area and it gets less strong or goes away." In the second article I read "Super Bowl QBs score points for great style" It talks about how Peyton Manning and Russell Wilson are bringing back the art of dressing well because they are some of the players that wear suits for post game interviews. She also talks about how the players should always dress up no matter what situation they should always look clean and groomed. "After watching New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick slouch off the field in hia cutoff hoodie, it's been heartening to see players like Wilson show up perfectly groomed for post-game interview."

Three questions i would ask Krista Ramsey
1. Why did you choose these topics?
2. How long does it usually take you to write these columns?
3. Did you get to meet Russell Wilson or Peyton Manning?
