Introduction

Hey everyone my name is Nick Malkin and this is my first blog for sports gender class. I am one of the biggest sports fans and followers you will find on the campus of Bowling Green. My career goal is to work in the offices for the Cleveland Cavaliers. I actually plan to intern with the Cavaliers next summer. I tried to get a head start with my career so I have been trying to work for sports teams to bolster my resume. I have worked as a Premium Seat Attendant with the Cleveland Indians and I worked as a Night Sales Representative for the Lake Erie Monsters. Both of these jobs have helped prepare me for my career aspirations. I didn't play any sports in high school a decision I now highly regret. I have played recreation sports throughout my life and play intramural football here at Bowling Green. One of my favorite hobbies is to play basketball and football with my friends in my spare time. One accomplishment I have is I was named the 2007 Avon Lake High School Physical Education Department Student of the Year for my hard work getting myself into shape which was noticed by our head football coach who taught my wellness class. My favorite sports teams are the Cleveland Cavaliers, Browns, and Indians. I also follow the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Bowling Green Falcons. I am looking forward to this class and hope to learn more about sports and gender to help further my knowledge in the area of my career.

    Hi Nick,

    I am impressed by your distinction of winning the Avon Lake HS Physical Education "Student of the Year." For one thing, it seems like a lot of Physical Education programs are being cut in High Schools, and that has been a cause for concern among many physical educators. So I am glad that there is still such a program at Avon Lake. I can also relate to the sports teams that are your favorites, so I know it has not been easy for you historically to be a fan of (most of) those teams. You have definitely gotten some great experience with the internship you have planned and the work experiences you have had.

    This is a good introduction to your blog and I look forward to reading more of your entries.

    My favorite male athlete has to be LeBron James. LeBron has not just exceeded expectations and become one of the best players in the NBA but he has saved my city of Cleveland and given us hope to end our Championship drought. My favorite female athlete is Serena Williams. I have so much respect for her competitive personality and how dominate she is. To see a woman that ripped and in shape is just impressive.
