As a professional broadcaster, you're always supposed to paint the picture, especially in radio, and he's very studious about that," Jim said. "He knows the numbers, he's always very good about knowing both teams, and college teams have a lot of players. I think there are no names actually said in the [call].

For example, we have had peer-reviewed scientific evidence for at least a decade that the policies in sport that ban homophobic behaviours are ineffective and need to be completely redesigned. They are complaint-based, which means a child would have to file a formal complaint about their teammates using homophobic banter. The policies also often only prohibit language motivated by hate, whereas this language is used constantly in sport and generally used to conform to social norms. Hours after "the most amazing, sensational, dramatic, heartrending, exciting, thrilling finish in the history of college football," Starkey attended a neighborhood party near his home in Walnut Creek, California, about 15 miles East of Cal's Memorial Stadium. The date was Nov. 20, 1982, and Starkey had spent the day calling the Big Game, featuring archrivals Cal and Stanford. When you’re in the field, your doing hands-on work and getting practical, real-world information or experience. Like a product being directly tested by consumers instead of by corporate R&D, or an anthropologist living with a tribe versus reading texts in a library. Even while shouting about Moen entering the end zone, Starkey had seen flags fly during the play and posed the essential question: "Will it count?" Would Cal's win -- and Starkey's incredible call -- be wiped away by a penalty on the Bears? The Play is one of the most famous and highly discussed plays in the history of American college football, in which California used five laterals on the last play to beat Stanford 25-20 in the 1982 Big Game, regularly played in the San Francisco Bay Area. The following are useful and/or memorable quotes from people who were involved with The Play.No matter what level of football you play, it’s probably fair to assume that you want to play your best and stand out amongst your teammates right? Of course, you do! According to Google Ngram Viewer , “work in the field” is the most common phrase. We use it a lot to talk about the “field” in which someone works. However, “work on the field” is almost never used on this graph. Marivoet S (2014) Challenge of sport towards social inclusion and awareness-raising against any discrimination. Physical Culture and Sport. Studies and Research 63(1): 3–11. DOI: 10.2478/pcssr-2014-0017. The constant use of homophobic language causes gay and bisexual boys and men to hide their sexuality and/or stop playing a sport.

Within the span of two years, Helen Jefferson Lenskyj produced two texts: Out on the Field: Gender, Sport and Sexualities (2003), and A Lot to Learn: Girls, Women and Education in the 20th Century (2005). On the surface, these texts have little to do with each other: one examines sport and the other examines education. However, the texts both share insightful commentaries on issues of gender and sexuality, Lenskyj's intolerance of liberal feminism, and an easily accessible style. The UK Parliament conducted an inquiry to examine progress on homophobia in 2017. In the final report the parliamentarians wrote: Because someone is standing on the shore while fishing, does it necessarily mean that they are in the lake? Wouldn't someone be able to go fishing on the shore without going in the lake? Oliver P and Lusted J (2015) Discrimination cases in grass-roots sport: comparing Australian and English experiences.

50 Years of evidence.

It was so unique," Hutchins said. "It would have been easy for him to get carried away or to get lost, but he stayed in his broadcaster brain the whole way through that thing. It was kind of funny to me, my reaction versus his, but it was evidence and a testimony to just how professional he always was."

Even in the KGO radio booth, amid the mayhem and excitement after Cal's victory, Starkey felt fear run through him. Ten years since that commitment was signed... the Australian Football League remains the only major sport in the world to have never had a male player come out as gay or bisexual (current or retired).It's again, serendipity, a fluke, whatever you want to call it," Starkey said. "When he throws that ball over his shoulder, he is hoping and praying that maybe there's a Cal guy behind him that can catch this, but he can't possibly know that." Communication is crucial on the football field for a team to succeed. However, if you are seen to be silent in a match, this isn’t a good look for you. It’s worth noting as well that simply making pointless noise will also reflect poorly on you as well. However, it is not used anywhere near as much as those positions! When the captain does decide to use the leg slip fielding position, it is extremely rare that you will see more than one fielder being there at a time! This is because:

Starkey, the eighth-year radio play-by-play voice for Cal, scrambled to find a highlight of what had happened in the final four seconds, a scene that would become known in sports lore simply as: The Play. Starkey's rule is why only one call of The Play truly resonates. There had been a local TV broadcast and a Stanford radio broadcast, but both cut off the call midstream, thinking there was no way the touchdown would count. They're going to bury me with it," Starkey said of his famous call. "It will be the first words when I die in the obituary. It lives on forever, apparently. This is 40 years later, and it's starting all over again." Pat Griffin is Professor Emerita in Social Justice Education at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst where her research and writing interests were LGBT issues in education and athletics. She has been an advocate for LGBT equality in sport for over 30 years and is often referred to as the Grandmother of the LGBT sports advocacy movement in the United States.Finally, let’s go over some suitable synonyms for the phrase. There are a few other ways we can talk about our employment field, and you might want to try one of the following: The officials kept talking, and the longer they talked, the sense of foreboding in my stomach swelled like a pan of Jiffy-Pop. If they had this much to discuss, that meant there might be a touchdown. I turned to my friend and said, "This isn't good." Major clothing brands pay athletes and sports billions of dollars because they know that professional athletes have a powerful influence on young people. I've broadcast nearly 1,000 college and pro football games," Starkey said. "I've never seen anything that matches what happened at the end of that game." Deanne Fitzmaurice for ESPN Work in the field” is a much more common variation. You’ll be more likely to see this one, and some of the following examples might already be somewhat familiar to you.
