The Greatest of All Time

Teaser week:
Day 2- Sports & Leisure
Activity 3- The Greatest of All Time


On your blog, list three pros (advantages) and three cons (disadvantages) of being the GOAT of the chess world.


Pros of being the GOAT:
1. You will be famous and well known for the sport you love to do
2. Everyone would want to know and research about your process/history and wonder why you decided to play that type of sport/hobby
3. When your GOAT for 15 years, you'll be rich enough to buy expensive belongings you've always wished and wanted for

Cons of being the GOAT:
1. Sometimes people in the world can be jealous and find some way to cheat if they're playing against you 
2. Being famous can be a big deal and situation to handle which may lead to some bad consequences including jealously and hatred
3. If you play chess too much and gets in the way of spending time with your loved ones, family and important things, it can distraught you from what really matters

Equal Pay for Equal Work?

Teaser Week:
Day 2- Sports & Leisure
Activity 2- Equal Pay for Equal Work?

For this activity, please think about this issue of the gender pay gap carefully. It is quite controversial (some people agree with it and some people disagree with it).
On your blog, tell us what you think. Is it fair? Why or why not? Be sure to explain exactly why you feel the way that you do.
In my opinion I believe it is unfair for the Black Ferns to be less paid than the All Blacks because they're all the same. Female athletes should be paid the same amount of money of male athletes because they're all doing the same thing and overall just have something in common that they love and enjoy. The fact that the Black Ferns are being paid for playing rugby is really sad to hear and I hope whoever is in charge reflects on this.
