This document discusses ambush marketing, which is when companies associate themselves with events or celebrities without paying for sponsorship rights. It provides examples of ambush marketing at the Olympics. The document argues that ambush marketing provides competition for large sponsors and allows smaller companies to market at lower costs. While sometimes seen as unethical, the document claims ambush marketing is a legal tactic as long as companies do not use prohibited words or infringe on trademarks. Forms of legal ambush marketing include advertisements near events and using athletes to promote brands. Overall, the document takes a pro-ambush marketing stance, arguing it creates competition and opportunities for companies in an otherwise restrictive sponsorship environment.
Major League Baseball players have used performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) for many years. Testing was not implemented until 2002 through collective bargaining between MLB and the MLBPA. While testing began in 2002, players could not be suspended for PED use until 2005. The use of PEDs has social, legal, economic, ethical and political impacts. It raises an ethical dilemma for general managers who want to win but also want players to compete fairly without PEDs. The document examines both the pros and cons of PED use from each of these perspectives.
Jeffrey Taylor sued the Enumclaw School District on behalf of his son Zachary Taylor. Zachary was suspended from the football team for 10 days for violating the school's policy against drinking alcohol as a member of the football team. The school conducted interviews and searches that found evidence of alcohol in Zachary's car. The court found that participation in interscholastic sports is not a protected property or liberty interest, so the process used by the school in suspending Zachary was adequate. The court affirmed summary judgment in favor of the school district.
David Cummings discusses his leadership philosophy which is based on leading by example and translating vision into reality. He has held several leadership positions including captain of his high school ski and tennis teams and president of his college tennis club and business fraternity colony. In these roles, he found it most effective to use a combination of democratic and autocratic leadership styles depending on the situation. He believes that having dedicated followers, rather than just a large number of non-dedicated ones, is key to motivating people and achieving goals. Showing dedication to followers and relating to them builds powerful leadership. His early positions required more transactional leadership through rewards and punishments, while later college roles demanded transformation through an innovative approach to growth.
That One Team was a virtual team consisting of David Cummings, Brittani Crawley, and William Woodell. They communicated primarily through group texts, emails, and monthly meetings.

They worked to promote their events through various campus groups but faced difficulties with room and time changes as well as campus policies that they suggest getting more guidance on for future projects.
