How To Be A Good Public Speaker



Happy Day After The Super Bowl. I guess there can be no question as to who won that game yesterday. The Seahawks. 

So what's with this video? This is shaking Marshawn Lynch wearing his ski mask being coached by his teammate Michael Robinson. Marshawn Lynch is extremely camera shy. He has been fined $50,000 by the NFL for not speaking to the media. 

I was curious about the two players so I checked out their stories. Marshawn is nicknamed "Beast Mode" and is an all American running back. He played football for the University of California, Berkeley where he became the schools all time career rusher. He went to high school at Oakland Tech where he played football, basketball and ran track. 

Michael Robinson is known as being "Well Rounded and Well Grounded". He went to Varina High School in Richmand Virginia. And he went to Penn State and played football under Joe Paterno as a quarter back and more. He has two degrees in three years and is 12 credits away from having his masters degree. His degrees are in advertising and public relations. He also says that he has a lot of on camera experience and it shows. 

It was a miracle that Michael Robinson could play in the winning game against the Denver Bronco's because he had an adverse reaction to the anti inflammatory "Indocin" and was in the hospital in August after thinking he only had a bug. He lost 30 pounds but came back to play this season.

One teacher who has a blog, "I'm Lovin Lit"  divised a lesson from this video. 


So mom's and teachers out there 
here is a great chart to help teach children about 
speaking in public. 

Marshawn could have used this. 

Maybe he will see these blog posts
and 
practice. 

*Because practice makes perfect...Right?*
