Incidentes y batalla campal en San Mames (Athletic 1- Anderlecht 1)

Posted on February 22nd, 2010 by admin in athletic | 15 Comments »

Cerca de 2000 aficionados del Anderlecht visitaban San Mamés. La mayoría de ellos lo hacía de forma pacífica; hicieron turismo, disfrutaron de su estancia en Bilbao y apoyaron a su equipo en la Catedral. La ejemplar actuación de un gran porcentaje de vio empañada por un grupo de ultras belgas, situados en la esquina del fondo Sur junto a preferencia este, que protagonizaron incidentes antes, durante y después del partido.

Antes del partido
La Ertzaintza tuvo que cargar en los alrededores de María Díez de Haro y detuvo a cuatro ultras belgas que estaban protagonizando altercados. Dos de ellos atacaron los Ertzainas.

Durante el partido
Insultos a los aficionados del Athletic, Lanzamiento de objetos, cánticos de “que viva España”, amenazas, lanzamiento de una bengala al terreno de juego…

Tras el partido
Fue el detonante. Un fallo garrafal de la Ertzaintza, que dejó a los ultras belgas en la grada de San Mamés mientras despejaba los aledaños del campo, permitió que los radicales saltaran al terreno de juego de San Mamés, ante la seguridad del campo que no podía controlarlos. Desde el otro fondo del campo, ocupado por Herri Norte, varios seguidores saltaron también al césped y hubo intercambio de golpes. Fuera del campo la Ertzaintza cargó contra los aficionados del Athletic que aguardaban la salida de los ultras.

Lo más triste es que estos incidentes se están convirtiendo en habituales en San Mamés. No es la primera vez que se repiten los problemas y es que los ultras visitantes empiezan a ver en San Mamés un escaparate para demostrar que son muy “valientes”. La falta de contundencia policial, que nuncha ha sabido atajar estos incidentes, también ayuda.

How does someone contact an athletic trainer for a professional sports team?

Posted on February 22nd, 2010 by admin in athletic | 1 Comment »

I am doing a project on becoming an athletic trainer, and I have to have an interview with an athletic trainer. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could provide me with an email or phone number of an athletic trainer to ask them some questions. Thanks.

Your initial request for an email address or phone number of an athletic trainer for a professional sports team is not likely to be fulfilled due to privacy issues. However, universities tend to publish information about departments, etc. that is likely to be public.

Why don’t you search "Athletic Trainer" or "Exercise Science" programs in the United States – to find out where athletic trainers are educated. Usually there are email addresses and phone numbers for the members of academic departments. You could then email or otherwise contact someone in the department to arrange an interview.

With a little additional searching, you may be able to find specific contact information of athletic trainers that work with professional sports teams. However, college and graduate students who are still in their athletic training careers might be more willing to talk with you.

Good luck.

How athletic are humans compared to other animals?

Posted on February 16th, 2010 by admin in athletic | 3 Comments »

As far as ATHLETIC traits go compared to body size. Strength, speed, agility, endurance, etc.

When compared to other animals, how do us humans rank, athletically?

Probably under average. A chimpanzee is smaller than an average human, but is 3-4 times stronger than an average human.

Humans can climb, but in a climbing race against an animal such as an orangutan, we’d be put to shame.

In a foot race against most animals, we’d be put to shame, even against extremely large animals. I think the VERY top speed for a human is about 30 mph. The fastest land animal, the cheetah, has been recorded at nearly 70 mph. Gorillas can run at around the same speed as humans, but also outweigh us by a few hundred pounds, on average. That’s very impressive.

The world’s highest vertical leap is somewhere around 43"-44". A mountain lion can leap up to 20 feet from standing.

A wolf can run for several hours at the speed of 8 mph. Can you do that?

Oh, and a human can exert about 100-150 lbs of pressure through a bite. An equal sized dog can bite over 300 lbs of pressure. Large dogs like Mastiffs can exert over 500 lbs of pressure.
