8 college football

студенческий (университетский) футбол

Любительские команды американского футбола. Первая Американская межуниверситетская футбольная ассоциация с участием пяти колледжей была создана в 1876. Популярность игры в колледжах и университетах бурно росла после первой и второй мировых войн, когда появились "Конференции" (лиги) студенческого футбола. Среди наиболее известных: "Большая десятка" [Big Ten], "Лига плюща" [ Ivy League], "Большая восьмерка" [Big Eight] и многие другие. В настоящее время существует несколько тысяч университетских команд, из которых около 200 пользуются общенациональной известностью. Каждый университет стремится привлечь в свои команды способных игроков, создавая подходящим абитуриентам всевозможные привилегии. Среди соревнований университетских команд особой известностью пользуется "Игра всех звезд" [All-Star Game], в которой сборная студенческая команда из лучших игроков предшествующего сезона [All-Star Team] встречается с командой-чемпионом профессионального футбола. Большие толпы болельщиков и массы телезрителей привлекают т.н. "Игры футбольной чаши" [ bowl game], разовые ежегодные встречи студенческих команд на ряде стадионов [Bowl] по приглашению организаторов встречи. Ежегодно публикуются списки символической "Всеамериканской сборной" [ All-America Team], составленной из лучших игроков студенческого футбола.

Пять раз выступал в "Игре всех звезд" [ All-Star Game] и установил несколько рекордов НФЛ. Окончил карьеру в футболе в 1979.

В 1994 был обвинен в убийстве жены Николь [Nicole] и ее любовника. Процесс над ним стал национальным событием как по его продолжительности, так и по рекордным средствам, затраченным на гонорары адвокатам и экспертам. Суд присяжных негритянского состава [all-black jury] после полуторагодового судебного процесса, широко освещавшегося средствами массовой информации и практически полностью транслировавшегося по телевидению, оправдал его

13 Los Angeles

I [los ˊændʒǝlǝs] г. Лос-Анджелес, второй по величине город США ( после Нью-Йорка) и крупнейший город штата Калифорния ( с пригородами 13 млн. жителей). Этот мегаполис в южной части штата Калифорния, население которого ещё в начале XX в. не достигало и 100 тыс., сохранял черты типичной испано-мексиканской архитектуры и долго считался пыльным захолустьем (см. Santa Ana winds), затерявшимся среди фасолевых полей и цитрусовых плантаций. Миграция на Западное побережье началась в 1920-е, в 1930-е гг. во время Великой депрессии [*Great Depression] сюда устремились бездомные и безработные, в 1920—30-х гг. город стал центром кинопроизводства ( Голливуд), в конце 1940-х гг. здесь осело много демобилизованных из армии и флота, возвращавшихся с тихоокеанского театра боевых действий, а в 1950—60-е гг. Эл-Эй (LA I — сокр. от Los Angeles I) стал центром новых технологий будущего и аэрокосмической промышленности. Сюда потянулись молодые и наиболее перспективные кадры, а девушек всегда привлекал Голливуд. Если не всем удавалось стать кинозвездой, то официанткой, секретарём-машинисткой или лаборанткой в научных центрах становились многие; Лос-Анджелес притягивал к себе молодых, сильных и красивых.

were made before forks the fire which lights us at a distance will burn us when near the first shall be last and the last, first follow your own star forbearance is no acquittance the fox knows much, but more he that catches him from the day you were born till you ride in a hearse, there's nothing so bad but it might have been worse from the sweetest wine, the tartest vinegar fruit is golden in

gentleman it costs nothing to ask it is easier to descend than ascend it is easier to pull down than to build up it is good fishing in troubled waters it is idle to swallow the cow and choke on the tail it is the last straw that breaks the camel's back it is sometimes best to burn your bridges behind you it is well to leave off playing when the game is at the best it is not clever to gamble, but to stop playing it's a small world it takes all sorts to make a world it takes a thief to catch a thief jealousy is a green-eyed monster jealousy is a proof of self-love keep a dress seven years and it will come back into style keep no more cats than will catch mice kindle not a fire that you cannot extinguish kissing goes by favor jam tomorrow and jam yesterday, but never jam today a joy that's shared is a joy made double justice is blind lay not the load on the lame horse learn to creep before you leap let the cock crow or not, the day will come the longest road is sometimes the shortest way home lookers-on see most of the game man does not live by bread alone many are called but few are chosen many go out for wool and come home shorn many stumble at a straw and leap over a block men cease to interest us when we find their limitations a misty morn may have a fine day the mob has many heads but no brains the moon is not seen when the sun shines the more the merrier mountain has brought forth a mouse much water runs by the mill that the miller knows not of name not a halter in his house that hanged himself the nearer the bone, the sweeter the meat never be the first by whom the new is tried nor yet the last to lay the old aside never do anything yourself you can get somebody else to do never is a long time never let your left hand know what your right hand is doing never make a bargain with the devil on a dark day never quarrel with your bread and butter never tell tales out of school a nod's as good as a wink to a blind horse no joy without alloy no man is a hero to his valet no mud can soil us but the mud we throw no names, no pack-drill no news good news no one but the wearer knows where the shoe pinches none is so blind as they who will not see none of us is perfect nothing is certain but the unforeseen nothing is easy to the unwilling nothing is so good but it might have been better nothing is stolen without hands nothing new under the sun nothing seems quite as good as new after being broken an old poacher makes the best keeper once is no rule one dog barks at nothing, the rest bark at him one good turn deserves another one half of the world does not know how the other half lives one hand washes the other one man's meat is another man's poison one picture is worth ten thousand words one volunteer is worth two pressed men one whip is good enough for a good horse; for a bad one, not a thousand opposites attract each other the orange that is squeezed too hard yields a bitter juice other people's burdens killed the ass out of the mire into the swamp painted flowers have no scent paper is patient: you can put anything on it people condemn what they do not understand pigs might fly the pitcher goes often to the well please ever; tease never plenty is no plague the porcupine, whom one must handle gloved, may be respected but is never loved the proof of the pudding is in the eating the remedy is worse than the disease reopen not the wounds once healed a rolling stone gathers no moss the rotten apple injures its neighbors scratch my back and I shall scratch yours the sea refuses no river seize what is highest and you will possess what is in between seldom seen, soon forgotten silence scandal by scandal the sharper the storm, the sooner it's over the sheep who talks peace with a wolf will soon be mutton since we cannot get what we like, let us like what we can get small faults indulged in are little thieves that let in greater solitude is at times the best society some people are too mean for heaven and too good for hell the soul of a man is a garden where, as he sows, so shall he reap sour grapes can never make sweet wine sow a thought and reap an act the sow loves bran better than roses a stick is quickly found to beat a dog with still waters run deep stoop low and it will save you many a bump through life a straw shows which way the wind blows a stream cannot rise above its source the style is the man the sun loses nothing by shining into a puddle the sun shines on all the world the sun will shine down our street too sunday plans never stand suspicion may be no fault, but showing it may be a great one sweetest nuts have the hardest shells the tail cannot shake the dog take things as they are, not as you'd have them tastes differ there are more ways of killing a dog than hanging it there is always room at the top there is life in the old dog yet there is no rose without a thorn there is small choice in rotten apples there is truth in wine there's as good fish in the sea as ever came out of it they need much whom nothing will content they that dance must pay the fiddler they walk with speed who walk alone those who hide can find three removals are as bad as a fire to the pure all things are pure to work hard, live hard, die hard, and go to hell after all would be hard indeed too far east is west translation is at best an echo a tree is known by its fruit a tree often transplanted neither grows nor thrives two can play at that game two dogs over one bone seldom agree venture a small fish to catch a great one the voice with a smile always wins wear my shoes and you'll know where they pitch we weep when we are born, not when we die what can you have of a cat but her skin what can't be cured must be endured what matters to a blind man that his father could see what you lose on the swings, you gain on the roundabouts when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail when a dog is drowning, everyone offers him drink when in doubt, do nowt when interest is lost, memory is lost when a man lays the foundation of his own ruin, others will build on it when a river does not make a noise, it is either empty or very full when the devil is dead, he never lacks a chief mourner when two ride on one horse one must sit behind where bees are, there is honey where it is weakest, there the thread breaks who seeks what he should not finds what he would not why keep a dog and bark yourself? a wonder lasts but nine days the worth of a thing is best known by its want the world is a ladder for some to go up and some down would you persuade, speak of interest, not of reason you buy land, you buy stones; you buy meat, you buy bones you can take a horse to the water, but you cannot make him drink you can tell the day by the morning you cannot lose what you never had you cannot touch pitch and not be defiled you can't put new wine in old bottles you can't walk and look at the stars if you have a stone in your shoe your looking glass will tell you what none of your friends will zeal without knowledge is a runaway horse
