The Lobotomist

Freeman was a guy who was always striving for his fame in the medical field. Freeman, although he was "helping" people was kind of a tunnel vision type of guy. He loved the idea that the papers were writing about his success even though the results have been terrible. He was an enthusiast non the less, he overlooked the big time issues.

He was a mad man mind in my mind. He only did what he did to cement his reputation in physicians everywhere. That was all he cared about. He screwed up many times but yet he always tried to make it better. Not realizing he's hurting a ton of people in the mean time.

Terrell Owens

Terrell Owens (TO) is a person who loves to get attention from the media and he is just a really cocky wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals. In my post I'm going to explain to you through many different ways of looking at why TO does what he does.

Psychoanalytical
Terrell Owens as a child never got the kind of attention he wanted from his parents and his teachers. So now he wants to make sure he can get all of the attention that he can possibly get as an adult.

Cognitive
TO thinks that if he does extreme things to get the medias attention that he will have more fans.

Biological
Terrell Owens is a lot more hormonal than other humans so he has a TV show to get the ladies.

Humanistic
Terrell Owens feels that it is normal for a celebrity to go out of his way to get fans. So he doesn't see himself as a distraction or a mean person when he says/does the stuff he does. He thinks that's how famous human beings are supposed to act.

Behavioral
Terrell Owens keeps doing what he is doing because he is getting more fans and he did get his own tv show so he is being rewarded for being a distraction.

Introduction

Hi my name is Mitchell Carney. I really like to watch and play football, golf, baseball, and basketball. My favorite things to do is hunting, fishing, and watching sports. But I think hunting is my favorite out of the three. I like to listen to country and classic rock the most. But I will listen to almost any kind of music besides screamo. I have started liking golf last year and I have a membership to Eagle Links this year so I have been spending a lot of my free time going there and golfing.
