Intro to Editorial/Opinion Cartoon

1. What is a problem/issue that our entire student body (our school, community, country, etc.) faces today?
Twins off to a very slow start
2. What is your view/position on the problem or situation?
That these players are almost excited to be injured/ill, and it's sort of a party not playing in games
3. What would you like to achieve with your editorial? (What is the desired result?)
To make light of the situation, and point out how baseball players are paid too much to not even play
4. How will you persuade your audience to adopt your viewpoint as theirs? List at least 4 persuasive points.
-Have the injured players in high spirits in the locker room
-Show a lot of players sitting together to make it seem like a party
-More players entering the room, as though they got invited
-Players have their bags of money by their feet to show their worth
5. How will you motivate your readership to action in your conclusion?
There isn't exactly "action" to take, I just want them to realize that athletes shouldnt be paid as much as they are for their minimal work, and how the Twins are struggling really bad this year
6. How will your editorial serve a public purpose?
It will raise awareness on the lack of fairness in sports
