Okay, I know this assignment is suppose to explain the similarities between my website and other professional sports sites available on the web, and there are undeniable similarities to an extent. For instance, my site uses statistics, talks about the well-known players/coaches, and highlights photos that other websites use as well. However, I don’t necessarily want to be anything like the other sports sites. The usual sport websites, like ESPN.com or sportcenter.com, are primarily focused on numbers and statistics because people in today’s world want to believe that the numbers never lie and that athletes are only as good as they appeared on paper. For example, if you were to visit ESPN.com you could navigate to every sport that is covered by the new channel directly from the site’s homepage. However, almost every subcategory within the primary sport categories is centered around statistics, scores, and standings. Yes, these aspects are important BUT, they are not, in my own opinion, the most important factors within professional sports. I believe the focus on numbers is a flaw created by the media within the sports community. Unfortunately, early in sports media development analysts, journalists and writers needed something to talk about and the most straight forward perspective of professional sports is through statistics. However, there are more important aspects that need to be covered. For example, the technique in which a linebacker, like Jame’s Laurinaitis, uses to tackle/sac a quarterback if far more important to the success of a defense than the number of times a sac is made. The technique, demeanor, leadership ability & attitude of professional athletes are just a few of the aspects that should take priority over numbers in the sports website world.  Therefore, that is the goal and “what my website brings to the table.” This site will aim to include well supported opinions, and the information about professional athletes within the L.A. Rams organization that the world cannot draw from statistics.
