I know you want to steer away from history, but the 1919 Black Sox Scandal might the most interesting thing in MLB history. Its not talked about too much and many fans don't even know what it is. In 1919, 8 white sox players were banned from baseball for intentionally losing a World Series to the Reds.
2 of those players however are suspectable in their involvement. Joe Jackson batted .375 and hit the only home run in the game and yet he was banned. Buck Weaver, who also had a good series, claimed he never intentionally mis-performed on the field and never accepted 1 cent to throw the world series and he petitioned to be brought back the MLB for the rest of his life until he died.
I think writing a paper on Buck Weaver and his pursuit to exgonnerate himself would be a great topic. Many people only talk about how Joe Jackson, a star, got screwed...even though he did accept money. Weaver, however, did nothing of that sort and yet he lost his MLB career.
I have been faced a lot of difficulties in the past in finding a reliable research paper writing service for writing my sports research paper. In fact I ordered a paper with many research paper writing agencies...now I am ordering my assignment from http://essaysmaster.com/ and well, I can tell you my experience that has been remarkably great. They are having great writers and seem to know what they are doing.
I think this guys are raw deal, not unless something happens I trust http://essaysmaster.com/ 100%. My opinion is based on my experience that I had with them so far. I hope my response is helpful.
However have an open mind in case of anything but I believe you will like their works.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
