Sport and Leisure in American Society
Choose TWO of the following questions to address in your Discussion Board original post:
Which social theory perspective intrigues you the most? What sport phenomena can you identify that is interesting from this perspective?
Do you have other examples of the “sport as a microcosm” perspective? What can sport learn from how the issue is dealt with in the ‘real-world’, or vise versa?
In discussing social identity theory, you learned about BIRGing and CORFing. Do you do this? Do you say “WE” when discussing your favorite team? Are you more likely to wear team apparel after a win? Had you ever noticed this before?
