Roger writing about football?
So I was thinking for a good satirical piece I could write about another college coach getting into a recruiting violation... The coach sends an email to a future recruit but accidentally includes the NCAA commisioner. In the Email they express how they will have the pillow stuffed with money, something along those lines. Another thing Mr. Lavender suggested was a satircal halftime coaches speech. Maybe a culmination of all the greatest speeches with just a few twists. Then possibly go on to use alot of jokes that you would have to know football in order to get the joke. Example: Billy our trusted quarterback of the last couple years, yes you've thrown 7 interceptions but it obviously isn't your fault. The Line has been unable to fend off the deffensive pressure. Something dumb like that. The first one would obviously be in email form, much like the satirical piece we read in class. And the second one would be in just a speach that was logged and writen down on paper.

hmm, I don't really know what to say, besides the fact that the second one seems like a funnier way to satirize the subject, but that might just be because I don't understand the first one as well. I'm not sure what it would be doing.
