Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Another triumph of Tiger Woods
by Ivana Bruderova


Tiger Woods, actual golf world No. 1 won his second tournament this year in Dubai, United Arab Emirates on February 3,2008. Woods finished at 14-under 274 one shot over Martin Kaymer, talented golfer form Germany. It is third time he started season 2-0. "It's the ideal start isn't it? You play to win. So far, I've done that this year." said Woods. In his career he has won 62 on the PGA Tour and 13 professional major golf world championships.Each tournament has it's winner and it's losers. For Ernie Els it was a real tragedy. Now, he is in the middle of his three-year plan to overtake Tiger Woods as the world's No.1, but now it seems to be a lost cause. Els started final round with one-shot lead over Henrik Stenson and had a chance to force playoff. But lately, all went wrong and after second ball ended in the water 38-year South African walked starring at the ground.Tiger Woods is ranked one of the best golf players of all time. He has been named Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year four times and Golf Digest predicted him to become the world first billionaire athlete in 2010. Woods aroused the interest in golf, which most of people considered to be insular, among the multicultural audience, doubled attendance and TV ratings. Tiger Woods started this year with two wins as well as in year 2000 and 2006. Now he has few days to decide whether he will play The Northern Trust Open at Riviera or he will not return until Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona, begins February, 20.

Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Furry critters abound in Super Bowl Ads
by Zuzana Krskova


When we are talking about Super Bowl, we are also talking about ads, which are most watched, scrutinized and expensive. The prices for spots are rising every year and this year's 30- second spots on News Corp.'s Fox network broadcast were fletching as much as 2.7 million USD.Thanks to strong matchup between The New York Giants and The New England Patriots, it is expected, that the game would drew more then last year's 93 million viewers.FedEx Corp.'s get inspired by Hitchcock book "The Birds", when they underling entrusts shipping operations to a huge squadron of pigeons.Toyota Motor Corp. came up with the theme for its Corolla model. Young guy is placed in the drivers seat next to a sleeping family of badgers, that would hurt him, if awakened. The cannons firing around is no problem, because of the noise- blocking ability of the car, but young guy would have been better off putting his cell phone on vibrate. Pepsi Co Inc.'s Sobe Life Water brand brought out Naomi Campbell dancing with some lizards on Michael Jackson's '80s classic "Thriller". CareerBuilder.com, job- search site showed a bored female office worker, with her heart jumping out of her chest, struts down to the boss's office and jumps on the desk with a little sign saying- "I quit." The theme is- follow your hearth.Super Bowl has been always known for its ads, that are able to capture viewers almost as the competition itself.

Sports and politics
by Claudia Sonea


Men have two main topics among themselves: sports and politics. Of course politics is a subject they approach later in life, while the other one is from a small age until they age and eventually die. When the two matter mix, there you have men's dream. Tiger Woods has fulfilled that dream. For those that don't know who Tiger Woods is (and I seriously doubt that there are too many), I will offer some details: is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time, currently the World No 1. Being impressed with Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama for various reasons, when he was asked what he thinks on the senator from Illinois, who like himself has an African-American father, he revealed that he is impressed and see in him an inspiration for many in the United States. He added that he is genuine impressed by all the candidates and their determination and their way of pleading for their platform. Nevertheless, the World Champion preparing for the Dubai Desert Classic has not given any forecast regarding the outcome of the Presidential election. As wise as any qualified political analyst, he prefers to wait and see what will happen. Men like always know what they are talking when it comes to these two subjects that imply the competition for power. Good luck to Tiger and a fair chance to all the Presidential candidates. Stay connected and keep in touch!

Chris Cantell Discusses Sports: Sport can kill too
by Barbora Misakova


My father and brother are typical men, it means they love doing and also watching various kinds of sport ranging from volleyball, tennis, skiing to soccer while the last mentioned is their favorite. Every Sunday when our city's league is played they are there watching and of course swearing if the match is not developing the way they want to. However I never thought they could be in danger until Dr. Gerhard Steinbeck didn't present results of his research. Steinbeck who works for Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich made with his colleagues research related to health hazard connected with European soccer. Their study was released in New England Journal of Medicine where they claim that emotional stress can lead or even be a reason of heart problems. Steinbeck with his colleagues made this research during World Cup in Germany in 2006 and results were compared with other periods in 2003 and 2005. This study included more than 4000 patients and results showed that cases of cardiac emergencies increased two times, for men had been even tripled. Another expert, psychologist Douglas Carroll from University of Birmingham said that soccer can have similar influence on our heart as war or earthquakes & in all cases it can make such emotional pressure on our heart we can get a heart attack! Just imagine, you are going on football match, you just want to drink one beer or have some hamburger, you just want to enjoy your ordinary Sunday but there is no assurance you will come back home alive. But this danger touches also soccer players themselves. Just remember how many soccer players died on heart attack during the match.Of course experts do not force us to stop playing or watching soccer & honestly they could hardly achieve this gain, they appeal on us not to smoke and drink a lot, try to avoid overeating and junk food and last but not least try not to get angry what is sometimes more than impossible. For those who have problems with hear or have high blood pressure or diabetes they recommend to take their medications as prescribed and what is the most important & do not over-expert themselves physically. So if you belong to soccer lover you should be careful and do not forget that soccer is just a sport.

Expensive sport
by Lenka Lehenova


People love sport. A lot of them just live with it and they check scores of every matches and it doesn't matter if it is football, baseball, hockey or bowl. Some fans of sport concentrate only for one sport. They know every player and collect some cards, star's signatures or their sporting costume. Specially men are sometimes like crazy... They spend a lot of money to see some match or to have sport's souvenirs. Money... Yes, it is quite important to have it if you want to be a good fan. So it means that I can say again: "Money is king..." To be Super Bowl fans is also expensive, specially if you are in Phoenix. You can come there with full bucket of money but you save nothing. The game last a few days and of course you want to see it all. But you need to live somewhere and to eat something. Then a car would be cool because you don't have to be dependent on buses, which are expensive as well. But to have a car it means pay for parking and petrol. There is only one way how to save money. You have to count out every coin. How? Imagine: For example, it is lunch time and you don't want to spend a lot, maybe only about $3. No problem! Just go to the Arizona State campus in Tempe. Very nice place, it is smoky there and you can sit on something what is only a little bit similar to chair but you can buy hamburgers for $2.93 and get ice tea free. Or you can looking for free park but it means to drive more miles to find it. There is also the other one possibility. You can try to win some money but be careful because it is risk as well and you can come back at home with debits.

Beckham not included in the first roster
by Zuzana Moravcova


The 32-year-old footballer, who is currently playing for Los Angeles Galaxy on the midfielder's position, was omitted by England's coach Fabio Capello, when he picked his first roster for next match against Switzerland.Capello thinks that Beckham's lack of match sharpness means he should not be included in the provisional list for the game with Switzerland next Wednesday."I know there has been a lot of discussion about David Beckham. When I spoke with David on the phone yesterday, I advised him that he is still part of my plans and once he is playing regularly in America, we will look closely at him again," he said to calm his fans.He also said he would consider picking Beckham for the next exhibition game against Switzerland, if he shows good form after opening of the Major League Soccer season on March 29. To stay fit, Beckham has been training with Arsenal during the MLS offseason.Supporters, who belong to the official England fans group, have mobilized in a last-ditch campaign, and decided to make Beckham the England Player of 2007 after his return under McClaren.Following players such as Peter Shilton, Bobby Moore , Bobby Charlton and Billy Wright, David Beckham would be England's fifth player who has reached 100 appearances. Now, this worldwide-admired player has no other option than to wait...

The 42nd Super Bowl have it's winner
by Ivana Bruderova


For someone a big surprise, for other something he was praying for. Sunday night, New York Giants sacked heavily favored New England Patriots in a Super Bowl final match and become a NFL champions with result 17-14. But from this 42nd Super Bowl fans would remember the team which lost as well as the winner. Because this season was for Pats unforgettable. Before the final they had an opportunity to be the first team to finish 19-0 and to win for fourth time in seven seasons. "Tonight doesn't take away from anything we have done over the course of the season," said quarterback of Pats Tom Brady. "We had a great year. It's just unfortunate that tonight turned out the way it did."The New England Patriots had all rights to believe they would win. After their 18 previous wined matches nobody predicted such a defeat. In a history of New York Giants it's their third Super Bowl. Thanks to defensive led by Michael Strahan and quarterback Eli Manning who was awarded to the most utility-man of the game. Just as his brother Payton who win the Super Bowl in the last season with Indianapolis Colts.The result was obvious in the last quarter after touchdown of David Tyree. But this waked Patriots and just two minutes before end they was winning again. Half minute before end Manning and Burress received winning touchdown.Couch of Patriots Bill Belchick immediately run across the field to congratulate couch of Giants Coughlin,in spite of how dissapointing and painful this defeat was.

The five magic rings
by Livia Necasova


Olympic Games is THE sports event. Even if you're not a sports expert, you're not doing sport yourself but somehow everyone is watching Olympic Games. Everyone wants to be a part of it. It's history. The first Olympic Games have taken place already in the antics, then there was nothing, but around 17th century there were some Olympic competitions in England and France. In 1896 the modern games of the new age originated and the International Olympic committee was established. The games took place in Athens after the motto: "back to basics". The games are divided to summer and winter Olympic games both taking place every 4 years. The Olympic committee chooses the best of the running countries,coming to a decision based on many factors. This year's host country is China, as the games are taking place in the capital Beijing. To host the Olympics is not an easy job. It requires huge capacities. You have to have a big,well equipped stadium. If you don't have one,you have to build one. Which brings us to the other thing- money. To make sure that things run smoothly,you need thousands of people to back it up. Safety guards, security,policemen and paramedics,helpers,sellers. Organization is a great catchword. The organization has to be perfect,faultless. Cause if you fail,the whole country fails. It's important cause you want to represent your country in the best life of course. Millions of people are watching you and talking about it so you better prevent any scandals and avoid doping affairs. Also you have to make sure that your guests are satisfied with the services and having fun! See you in Bejing.

by Zuzana Krskova


The winner of 10 races last season and his second NASCAR championship is held back in his team.This year, Johnson is trying to win the third title. If he does, he will become the second racer in the history, who reached this success. He can try it in Sunday's Daytona 500 pursuit, which will open the season."I fell very good about where we are, and I know what we've done in the offseason has only made us stronger," Johnson said. "But I still think we have a lot of room for improvement."Johnson's Hendrick Motorsports now includes Dale Earnhardt Jr.,who is supposed to be a strong competition for Johnson.Earnhardt won last week's Budweiser Shootout in Hendrick Motorspots debut, and two qualifying races Thursday. That made him as the favorite to win the Daytona 500.Tony Stewart, the searcher for his first Daytona 500 win, has had tried to reach the first place in nine previous NASCAR's races. He and Busch and Hamlin, racer for the same team found out, that winning will depend on teamwork, and he doesn't like it."There's safety in numbers- and that's disappointing part," said Stewart. "That's what this race has come down to, not great individual performances, but sheer numbers of strength. I think it's harder than ever to win because you've got rely on everyone else."He thinks, that the only think he can count on, is that his teammates will work with him and he hates the feeling, that he will have to rely on someone else for his success."I feel we finally have a shot to beat that lineup of four guys that i had to go up against the other night,"I feel we have three good cars in our camp, they've got four good cars on their side. That's about as even as it gets."The Daytona 500 is 200-lap, 500 mile NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Races are made annually at the Daytone International Speedway in Daytona Beach in Florida. This year is celebrating its 50th running.

TV commercials more popular than the show itself
by Martina Harvanova

Fabulous news for companies that like to advertise their brands in the most possible measurement & people still adore watching TV commercial. And for the discovery we don't need to evolve any expensive or complicated research. Practical experiences and every-day observation reveal the surprisingly positive fact and mainly the latest broadcasting of Super Bowl is the reason for the joy and hope in TV marketing business. The number of viewers that saw the popular transmission reaches 97, 5 million. The final win of the New York Giants over the New England Patriots broke all the records in the history of Super Bowl broadcasts as the last-year's rating remained in the shadow of the Super Bowl 2008 with "only" 93,2 viewers. Another staggering fact comes if we realize that the mentioned number represents just the lowest number of spectators. The explanation is that the calculation mirrors the average viewership during any given minute. Therefore the total rate is higher and means the figure of 148.3 million watched at least some part of the game. Despite all the praise about that, the "MASH" series final in 1983 still occupies the first place in the popularity and greatest viewership ever. However, the most astonishing note isn't just the game and its attractiveness among American televiewers. The great rating links to the commercials. However strange it may sound, this year's Super Bowl was probably the only television event watched mainly for commercials. And the Fox, TV channel that usually serves the Americans with the transmission, knows that. In fact, it charged $2, 7 million for every 30-second-long advertisement during the game. The mentioned discovery is likely to tweak the situation & Fox will apparently ask for more money than this year. On the other hand, the companies will be able, by all means, and even wiling to satisfy the Fox's demand. They owe it their customers. Corporations like Pepsi, E-Trade or Doritos must appear on the screen while the Super Bowl broadcast & their consumers just ask for it. The more viewers the Super Bowl and the entire show around it will attract, the more money the channel can ask for 30 seconds of commercial picture. And nobody complains about it, because all the Americans profit from that & viewers get their game and entertainment, Fox earns big money and companies are satisfied with the way of their marketing solutions and costs.

Super Bowl brings a new audience record
by Daniela Kuruczova


The final match of the US National Football League, Super Bowl, became the second most-watched TV program in the American history. The game between New York Giants and New England Patriots has drawn more than 97.5 million US viewers to the TV screen &3.42 million more viewers than in the last Super Bowl viewers record form 1996. The first rank in the chart of most-watched TV shows is held by the final episode of M*A*S*H, which was watched by 106 million viewers in 1983. The actual game was attractive to the viewers as the one of the teams & New England Patriots - entered the final unbeaten. The result of the match was surprising too & Patriots got beaten 17-14 by the less favored Giants. High ratings pleased also the advertisers, who payed for the commercial time during Super Bowl. The price for 30 second spot was $2.6 million and more. Recently, the usual commercials are not that watched thanks to new digital devices like TiVo and drooping number of TV viewers in general - Super Bowl is for advertisers a unique chance to promote themselves in front of large audience. "Overall it was a great year for Super Bowl advertising," said professor Tim Calkins, Super Bowl review leader at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. Also the Fox station, which aired the final, used part of the commercial time to promote their new shows.

by Zuzana Krskova


When we are talking about Super Bowl, we are also talking about ads, which are most watched, scrutinized and expensive. The prices for spots are rising every year and this year's 30- second spots on News Corp.'s Fox network broadcast were fletching as much as 2.7 million USD. Thanks to strong matchup between The New York Giants and The New England Patriots, it is expected, that the game would drew more then last year's 93 million viewers. FedEx Corp.'s get inspired by Hitchcock book "The Birds", when they underling entrusts shipping operations to a huge squadron of pigeons. Toyota Motor Corp. came up with the theme for its Corolla model. Young guy is placed in the drivers seat next to a sleeping family of badgers, that would hurt him, if awakened. The cannons firing around is no problem, because of the noise- blocking ability of the car, but young guy would have been better off putting his cell phone on vibrate. Pepsi Co Inc.'s Sobe Life Water brand brought out Naomi Campbell dancing with some lizards on Michael Jackson's '80s classic "Thriller". CareerBuilder.com, job- search site showed a bored female office worker, with her heart jumping out of her chest, struts down to the boss's office and jumps on the desk with a little sign saying- "I quit." The theme is- follow your hearth. Super Bowl has been always known for its ads, that are able to capture viewers almost as the competition itself.

Beckham not included in the first roster
by Zuzana Moravcova


The 32-year-old footballer, who is currently playing for Los Angeles Galaxy on the midfielder's position, was omitted by England's coach Fabio Capello, when he picked his first roster for next match against Switzerland. Capello thinks that Beckham's lack of match sharpness means he should not be included in the provisional list for the game with Switzerland next Wednesday. "I know there has been a lot of discussion about David Beckham. When I spoke with David on the phone yesterday, I advised him that he is still part of my plans and once he is playing regularly in America, we will look closely at him again," he said to calm his fans. He also said he would consider picking Beckham for the next exhibition game against Switzerland, if he shows good form after opening of the Major League Soccer season on March 29. To stay fit, Beckham has been training with Arsenal during the MLS offseason. Supporters, who belong to the official England fans group, have mobilized in a last-ditch campaign, and decided to make Beckham the England Player of 2007 after his return under McClaren. Following players such as Peter Shilton, Bobby Moore , Bobby Charlton and Billy Wright, David Beckham would be England's fifth player who has reached 100 appearances. Now, this worldwide-admired player has no other option than to wait...

Expensive sport
by Lenka Lehenova


People love sport. A lot of them just live with it and they check scores of every matches and it doesn't matter if it is football, baseball, hockey or bowl. Some fans of sport concentrate only for one sport. They know every player and collect some cards, star's signatures or their sporting costume. Specially men are sometimes like crazy... They spend a lot of money to see some match or to have sport's souvenirs. Money... Yes, it is quite important to have it if you want to be a good fan. So it means that I can say again: "Money is king..." To be Super Bowl fans is also expensive, specially if you are in Phoenix. You can come there with full bucket of money but you save nothing. The game last a few days and of course you want to see it all. But you need to live somewhere and to eat something. Then a car would be cool because you don't have to be dependent on buses, which are expensive as well. But to have a car it means pay for parking and petrol. There is only one way how to save money. You have to count out every coin. How? Imagine: For example, it is lunch time and you don't want to spend a lot, maybe only about $3. No problem! Just go to the Arizona State campus in Tempe. Very nice place, it is smoky there and you can sit on something what is only a little bit similar to chair but you can buy hamburgers for $2.93 and get ice tea free. Or you can looking for free park but it means to drive more miles to find it. There is also the other one possibility. You can try to win some money but be careful because it is risk as well and you can come back at home with debits.
