Offside Rules Research Paper

An occasion when someone would have told me I’m logical is when I play soccer. In the game there are common rules that everyone knows. One of the rules is the offsides rule, which states that the player of the opposing team must stand slightly beside or behind one of the defenders or else the side referees will call offside every time. This applies to me, since I played in a youth team and every time they would pass me the ball I would be called on for being offside, and the coach would keep on telling me to get behind the last player because it’s the most common rule, but the easiest to break.

An occasion when someone has told me “that is not logical at all” is when I had a debate in my AP Language class. We had a debate that revolved around

abortion, and our team did not prepare as well as we should have. I was the questioner, and I panicked because this person was good at debates so I said “would you abort your baby if you got attacked.” It did not make sense, and the opposing’s team constructive made sure that of it by saying that it is not logical to say something like that.
The difference between the two situations is in one situation it was common sense, so when it is logical you should be able to determine what to do by experience and by everything that happens around you. When something is not logical at all it means that it does not make sense and one should rethink what they said. The criteria that should be applied when determining whether something is logical or not, is determined by the culture, and your surroundings. Something that one person finds logical can seem illogical for someone else, so it varies.
