when writing a persuasive essay.....?

We Answered:

Well, it seems that the first place where you want to pack a 1-2 punch in the opening. So your opening doesn't have to be filled with powerful words as much as it just needs to be powerful.

How about something like this:

In 1962, the National Football League (NFL) saw its annual television revenues reach $3 million; in 1998, the comparable figure was $2.2 billion, more than a 700-fold increase in 36 years.

This $2.2 billion, which rivals anything the stock market can do, is for just one sport, one league, and only one source of income--television.

Multiply that figure by every major league in professional sports, and the amount of U.S. dollars spent for all of America's favorite pastimes becomes absolutely staggering!

Pro-sports is definitely about winning--it's a big time industry and to the victors go the big bucks. The money story is so big, that Harvard Business School describes professional sports as "thoroughly assimilated into the entertainment industry. Fans are the geese who have laid the golden eggs for pro athletes, team owners, sports broadcasters. Meanwhile, that same flow of cash has altered the relationship between spectators and the contests. A newfound distance, which can verge on alienation, separates the audience from athletes and teams."

The implications of all this celebrity and the money that goes along with it is that somewhere in the mix, we have lost the game, lost the ideals associated with fair play, and many of our athletes have lost personal integrity in an effort to win--at any cost.

...Just some possibilities--modify or discard as fits your paper, and then branch out to further address your position.
