Gift Ideas for the Sports Fans Dads & Grads

Father's day is just around the corner and it seems like there's a Graduation to attend every weekend - and if you are like most of us - your imagination is on overload trying to come up with creative gift ideas!

Unlike Mother?s Day - you can?t just run out to the nearest florist and send a nice bunch of roses, and that means that when buying gfts for Dads and Grads.....you may actually have to put some thought and effort into the decision!((

Fortunately, many of those Dads and Grads (yes, even the female variety!) are sports fans - and that opens up a whole new world of unique, logo bearing gifts!(( And we are not talking about the usual team branded T-Shirt or football jersey either - with a little creativity you can find something unique and special for every fan.((

Here's a gift that is really unique - a personalized locker room photo, showing 4 team jerseys, one emblazoned with the RECIPIENT's name! So far, my Dad has gotten his name on a Dodgers jersey, and my best friend and rabid Sharks (Hockey) fan, Pat, has her?s hanging in her crafts room! You can get the pic framed or unframed, the price is great, starting at just $29.95, and is sure to be something that will be treasured for years to come. Available for all pro teams, and many colleges, these are truly a great conversation piece for many years to come!

How about a quick 'redo' of the basement or game room for Father's day? How about easy to install carpet tiles with Dad?s favorite team?s logo? The logoed tiles are alternated with solid color tiles so you get a team logo ?checkerboard? effect on the floor, and are easy enough to install that you can re-do the average size room while Dad spends his afternoon on the golf course! You can get the carpet tiles for all the pro teams (NFL, MBL, NHL) and most of the bigger colleges too (Great for the OSU or USC fans!)

If redoing the whole floor is more than you want to tackle right now, you can find area rugs from door mat size to a full room (just roll it out and you?re done!) with either a ?repeating? logo pattern or the more traditional single large logo.

For the grad that just got the new car - you can even get custom team logo car mats, personalized with their name! These also make terrific fundraisers for schools and great promotional items for businesses, too.((

And for the high school grad heading off to college in the fall, you can find everything from sheets and comforters to body pillows and bed slippers for just about any school you can think of (Appalachia? College of Mines? Yup!). ((

No matter what your sports fan grad or dad might want - whether it's a rolling cooler, pool cue and balls set, a lamp or car mats - make it something they will really treasure by adding the unique touch of their favorite team logo!((

English help pleas grads due to marow morning??

what are the direct object and indirect object in this sentences
1: the announcer tells them anecdotes.
2:newspaper gives their readers sports coverage
3:a palm-oil lamp gave okonkwo light at night
4:michael jordan shows his teammates new shots.
5:the university gave the the tournaments its support.
6:one player earned his team a three-point edge
7:many fans paid the players tribute with colorful banners.
8:the coach gave the player new instruction.
9:several players gave him a pat on the back.
10:the coach gave his players all the credit.

First of all, it's not going to do you any good to just have someone give you the answers. You want to know HOW to do it, so when the test comes along, you blow your teacher away.

Direct Object: It receives the action of a verb. It helps the ask a question. For example, if your sentence was "She threw George the ball", you would ask, "She threw what?" And hopefully you would realize "Oh! She threw a BALL!" Obviously, "she threw George" would not make any sense, so the D.O. is not "george".

Indirect Object: It is to whom or for whom the action of the verb was done or given. For example: She threw George the ball. For whom was the ball thrown? George, of course!

1. DO: the announcer tells them what? An anecdote. Anecdote is the direct object.
IO: Who is told the anecdote? Them.

2. DO: a newspaper gives what? They don't give out "readers", that's just silly. They give out coverage. ("sports" is an adjective modifying coverage, so it's not part of the direct object.)
IO: Whom is the coverage given for, or to? The readers.

3. DO: light ("at night" is a prepositional phrase that acts like an adjective, modifying the verb "gave")
IO: Okonkwo

4. DO:shots
IO: teammates

5. DO: support
IO: tournaments

6. DO: edge
IO: team

7. DO: tribute
IO. players

8. DO: instruction
IO: player

9. DO: pat
IO: him

10. DO: credit
IO: players
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tip 1: Beware of using words like "the" and the like. They are ajectives and modifiers. They are not part of the DO and IO.

Tip 2: The DO usually comes after the IO and the verb. The IO usually is in the middle, between the verb and the DO. The usual order is Verb>IO>DO.
~~~~~~

EXTRA: the guy who gave you the answers above is wrong. He included adjectives, a very common and very bad mistake.
