Evaluating

 The Arthur article agree that athletes are using weed to relieve pain and neither articles suggest that athletes are using marijuana as a way to boost their performance. This article was another great way to argue that athletes use weed for pain reliever during recovery period. In this article the Arthur uses various resources to support his claim. He states that Marijuana stills the brain, it relieves pain, and it helps people get a good night sleep. The Arthur also does another great job supporting his argument that Marijuana is not used to give the athletes an unfair advantage; it is just used so they can feel better. The article suggest that marijuana is strictly used to relive pain and allow the athletes to focus. The arthur uses very good reliable sources to back up the initiative argument presented in the article.

Reflecting

After all my research I’ve decided that I will be using Galileo to write my essay. Galileo is a great way to find reliable resources to backup my argument. After reading the article I selected I have learned a lot about Marijuana ad its usage. This was an eye-opening article that really grabbed my attention. The Arthur did a fantastic job in backing up their argument with basic facts making it easy for met to agree.
