  1. Point of View

  2. Point of View: Who is right? The annual Ely Tigers versus Dillard Panthers football game was played last Friday night. Due to family commitment, I was unable to attend. The game was decided when Donnell Wilson caught a touchdown pass on the last play of the fourth quarter, boosting Ely to a 14-10 victory. When I arrived at school on Monday morning, everyone was talking about the catch and the victory. What I wanted to know is what REALLY happened and just how spectacular this catch actually was. Throughout the day, I spoke to the following people in an attempt to obtain the truth. As I review each source, I must constantly ask myself about the validityof each person’s comment and what is his or her particular expertise in high school football.

  3. Bias = any predetermined opinion or feeling, either favorable or unfavorable • Examples? • When someone is biased, they are more likely to take sidesand not be open mindedto different opinions. • What does bias have to do with how trustworthya source is? (prejudice) Bias

  4. Dillard Panthers Ely Tigers vs.

  5. So what happened? Just how spectacular (amazing) was the catch that Donnell Wilson made? 1 – not spectacular 2 – somewhat spectacular 3 – really spectacular

  6. How can there be different accounts of the same event? • Why are there different judgments about Donnell’s catch if everyone was watching the SAME game?

  7. So what happened? Point of View

  8. Cross Checking Sources • Pick 4 more sources to analyze. • Try to get different points of view. • Complete Part II at the bottom of the 2nd page

  9. DOCUMENT A Tom Robard, newspaper reporter, The Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel The annual Ely—Dillard football game ended in dramatic fashion when Donnell Wilson caught the game winning pass as time expired. Wilson made a leaping catch and landed safely in the end zone, capping an improbable come-from-behind victory for the Ely Tigers. (Note: Most high school game results are phoned in to the newspaper sports desk)

  10. DOCUMENT B Donnell Wilson, Ely Tigers wide receiver, caught game-winning pass Did you see that catch?! Man, it was amazing! I knew I had it all along! That D-Back was nothing! I just ran right by him and reached out and pulled it in. Focus, real focus!! We’re number one!!

  11. DOCUMENT C Clayton Sheffield, offensive coach, Ely Tigers It was a great catch! It was unbelievable! Donnell has heart and just doesn’t know how to quit. When it mattered most, I knew he would come through. He’s tough, a real gamer! I had the team focused. We were ready to play. Never a doubt!

  12. DOCUMENT D Jasmine McNeil, cheerleading captain, Ely Tigers It was a totally awesome catch! We won the game and, like, totally disgraced the other team. I knew we would win after our halftime show, and we did. We rock! Go Tigers! Those Dillard guys had no chance. And you should have seen those Dillard girls. Their cheers were sloppy and screechy. No wonder we won!!! We’re the best!!

  13. DOCUMENT E Mary Griffin, parent of Ely Football player, Teacher at Ely High School, attendee of game Ely played real hard. The boys were great. It was a great catch that won a hard fought game. The noise in the stands after the game was unbelievable. Everyone was hugging each other and screaming.

  14. DOCUMENT F Demetrius Johnson, defensive back that covered Donnell Wilson, Dillard Panthers We were robbed!! That guy never had the ball. He was lying there on the ground and the ball just fell into his hands. He pushed me and the ref never saw anything. Ely is nothing but a bunch of cheats!

  15. DOCUMENT G Mark Burton, defensive coach, Dillard Panthers What can I say? Demetrius played him real tight. Ely just ended up on the ground with the ball and the touchdown. Some nights you just aren’t lucky, some you are.

  16. DOCUMENT H Owen Dyson, football referee, excerpt from his game report to Florida High School Activities Report It was a clean and simple catch resulting in a touchdown. No penalty was involved.

  17. DOCUMENT I Robert Benson, assistant football coach, University of Nebraska. Excerpt from his scouting report #83 Donnell Wilson, Senior. Position: Wide Receiver. Height: 5’6” Weight: 155 lbs. Comment: has poor hands and only average speed.

  18. Part II (Yes, you must do this part.) • Which source is the most reliable or trustworthy? • What makes this source more reliable than the others?
