1. "Reports say Miami Dolphins talking to teams about a backup QB. The Dolphins respond"
- This is a story in the Miami Herald that talks about the Miami Dolphins need for a backup quarterback. A few weeks ago, reports came out that the Dolphins were looking to trade with another team for a backup quarterback. The Dolphins are still in need of a backup quarterback, but new reports recently came out that they no longer were looking to trade for one and will just use one of the three quarterbacks they have on roster as their backup. The problem presented in this story is that the Miami Dolphins have a lackluster group of quarterbacks and they are looking to upgrade the position. Any professional sports team can have this problem of wanting to upgrade a backup player.

Hi Max,
ReplyDeleteThe local opportunities you provided are great. Your "who" part of some of the local opportunities are slightly vague. For example, in the third opportunity, women that see masseuses are not the only ones facing the problem of potential inappropriate touching. Men can face it, and the accusations can spell out big problems for massage locations, massage therapists, and other hands-on human-contact jobs.
Hey Max,
ReplyDeleteGreat job on picking out your local opportunities. It was really interesting to read about the electric scooters in Miami article. I used to live in Miami and can understand why it could be dangerous for scooter riders, especially with the amount of cars and traffic daily. The only thing I would suggest is to be more descriptive in your summaries.
Hey Max, you did a great job choosing local opportunities to speak about in this blog post. I had no idea that bringing scooters back to Miami was possibly in the works. Miami is such a busy city that this would be such a dangerous idea to bring them back. Although it solves issues for many workers to get to work easier, faster, and cheaper than a car, this would be so dangerous!
