Response to “Coaches Can Read, Too”: An Ethnographic Study of a Football Coaching Discourse Community by Sean Branick

Question 1.
Before you read, you were asked to consider whether you think football coaches are a discourse community. After reading Branick’s paper, have you changed your opinion in any way? If so, what did he say that got you to think differently?

Response 1.

I did not change my opinion. I have always believed that sports related communities are discourse communities and very strong ones. Branick did a very good job to ensure that there is a very detailed reason his community is a discourse community. This let me relate to other discourse communities and pick out how they are exactly defined.
