Icon Analysis

The three icons I choose to write my blog about include comedian Jimmy Fallon, former basketball superstar Michael Jordan and finally my current professional football player Calvin Johnson. I choose these three icons because each one of these icons plays a different role in my life. For example Michael Jordan plays a part in my childhood as I watched and admired the way he played the game of basketball day in and day out.  The Detroit Lions star wide receiver Calvin Johnson plays a role in how I won three hundred-dollars in a fantasy football league. Finally comedian Jimmy Fallon, who doesn’t love a good laugh at the end of a long

Jimmy Fallon is a comedian/singer/actor and a television host. Fallon is most known for his work with the widely known television show, Saturday Night Live. Saturday Night live was actually how I discovered comedic icon Jimmy Fallon. Watching Fallon became almost a tradition as following his discovery I would watch YouTube videos almost every night.

Next I choose to write about the most recognized icon in sports Michael Jordan. Watching Michael Jordan never gets old. To this day I still watch old clips of Jordan whenever the urge hits me. Michael Jordan also has perhaps one of the most successful shoe brands with a hefty price tag making him successful even outside of the basketball world.

Finally the last iconic figure I choose to write about is Pro football star Calvin Johnson Jr. Johnson was my favorite football player to watch and also played a significant role in my winning of three hundred dollars in fantasy football. Johnson holds the record for the most receiving yards in a single season and a few other records making him one of my favorite players of all time.
