Iphone vs. Droid

Apple iPhone- The iPhone, sleek in its new design and new color. The iPhone stands above all other smart phones, being the most popular smart phone on the market. It's iPod capabilities along with internet, online gaming, and app store make it the most versatile phone. Face-to-face, or facetime, is unique to this phone and isn't offered by any other phone.






The Android- The Android, a very popular smart phone on the market. Like the iPhone, it is sleek; but the Android lacks many capabilities that the iPhone has. To upload music to the Android, the music must be converted to an mp3 file. Music can be downloaded right to the iPhone and ready to be listened to instantaneously. The apps, although free, are limited to owners of the Android. The app store for the Android offers a few thousand apps while the Apple app store offers over a million different apps.
Overall the iPhone is the more popular phone having better music capabilities and apps available 24/7.

Football

1.      The object I plan on evaluating is a football. Some people look at a football and just see it as a football. There are many deeper meanings that can be derived from a football.
2.      I believe that a football is a symbol for good things in life
3.      It’s a game every Sunday to get together with friends and family, it’s a game of backyard football instead of being inside playing video games, it allows for college scholarships, and it provides jobs.
4.      A football meets all of the criteria because every Sunday football brings friends and families together, kids are outside playing sports and being active rather than being inside not being productive, many students can go to college and play a sport when they maybe couldn’t have afforded that particular college, players can become professionals in football and play in the NFL, but also all of the people who work at the concession stands have jobs because of a football.
5.      My intended audience is geared towards sports fans. This article would probably be in Sports Illustrated or ESPN The Magazine. I’d like to make my piece both entertaining and informative.
6.      The criteria fit for the subject. They are all relevant and are supportive.
