  1. If you were going to write about the sportsmanship of those participating in intramural, what would be your stance? I find that to be probably the most interesting of the three that you have put down but I'm curious as to what your argument would be. I myself and not very knowledgeable when it comes to the intramural program and have only attended a hand full of games in the past. I'd like to hear your stance on the issue.

  2. I think that you've listed your three from most interesting to least (not that the third is a bad idea). I do agree that the first seems promising and think that McKaylee offers some good things to think about. It would especially be good if you have personal experiences/examples to illustrate your argument.

  3. My stance is that attitudes doing intramurals and sportsmanship at games need to reflect BYU in a better light than it has. The most negative aspects of BYU students I have seen have come from sporting events, which is natural because sports tend to be very emotional and rival-driven. However actions at games or during intramurals should not mar BYU's reputation to an outside viewer. Thanks, Mckaylee! And yes, I thought my first idea was the most interesting and I plan on writing on that one.
