The Switch up
The snackscape has changed. There was a time that the gameday spread at my house would rival a deep south buffet, complete with all of the dips, wings, meatballs, every variety of chip known to man, and a robust sourdough bowl overflowing with cheese-laden chili. Not this year. We didn't even rock the football shaped snack plates or green-turf garland with little dangling pigskins.

Why I Refuse to Talk About the Chiefs' Loss
If you've read my story Surviving "Killa City", you might know that as a Kansas City native, I am a big Chiefs fan. Which is why this year's Super Bowl definitely was a downer for me. So much so that I checked out right before half time (I didn't even watch the Halftime Show and that's saying something because I love watching the Halftime shows). After spending two quarters yelling at my TV and cussing out the referees for the constant flags against the Chiefs, I knew in order to keep my blood pressure at a normal level, it was best to remove myself from the carnage.

How to Support Your Team When You're Not Playing
When an athlete makes the team, do they want to sit on the bench? Of course not. Anyone who tells you otherwise isn’t being truthful. Sure, kids often get into sports because they love it or they want to hang out with their friends. But no one wants to be a backup, or worse, not play because they’re injured.

Athletes and Eating Disorders in Western Culture
In today’s society, many people feel self-conscious about their body types, and have a constant desire to be thinner. Research has found that “Eating disorders influence alterations of brain functions, significantly impair cognitive function, judgment, and emotional stability; and restrict the life activities of persons afflicted with these illnesses” (Klump, Bulik, Kaye, Treasure & Tyson, 2009). People are constantly influenced by others and consumed by the ideology of having a thin body shape, which essentially consumes the majority of their thoughts; thus negatively affecting the way they perceive their own bodies. When people have these negative connotations with the self, they tend to be more at risk for developing an eating disorder.
