Blue-collar worker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The quintesential blue collar NFL team is the Pittsburgh Steelers, which have been known as a blue collar team since their glory days in the 1970's, not only for their physical play, but also because they have traditionally had a large and loyal blue collar fan base. The term "blue collar" is often used to describe the style of play of certain American sports teams. This is especially true of American Football, where teams which emphasize a solid running game on offense, stopping the run on defense, and hard, physical blocking and tackling are labled "blue collar" by sports writers and TV and radio football commentators. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Blue-collar   (592 words)

Blue Collar . Memphis Flyer . 11-17-97 Blue Collar is not liberal in tone or perspective, it is radical. Where Blue Collar differs from other labor films, from Salt of the Earth to Norma Rae to Matewan, is that it is not a pro-union film. Blue Collar's only allegiance is to the worker, but it refuses to romanticize even him. www.filmvault.com /filmvault/memphis/b/bluecollar1.html   (336 words)

Blue-collar worker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The quintessential blue collar NFL team is the Pittsburgh Steelers of the Chuck Noll and Bill Cowher eras, not only for their physical play, but also because they have traditionally had a large and loyal blue collar fan base. A blue-collar worker is a working class employee who performs manual, unskilled or semiskilled labor, such as in a factory or maintenance "trades," in contrast to a white-collar worker, who does non-manual work generally at a desk. Another aspect of blue-collar work is the time clock used to record the precise hours that the employees work and therefore calculate their pay—which is usually based on an hourly rate and paid weekly. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Blue-collar_worker   (772 words)

Arlie Hochschild, UC Berkeley Sociologist, answers the question, "Why are 50% of Blue Collar White Males Planning to Vote for Bush in 2004, Even When He is Picking Their Pockets and Stealing the Futures of Their Children?" - A BuzzFlash Interview You identify a sort of an emotional trade-off, basically, that the blue collar support of Bush isn't based on facts; indeed, many of these blue-collar males are aware of the facts. So I'm looking at this data and it's a surprise that 50% of blue collar males don't seem to be voting in -- what we might think they would see as -- their self-interest. The blue collar guy's upset; he has a right to be upset. www.buzzflash.com /interviews/03/12/int03326.html   (3567 words)

Blue Collar TV PopMatters Television Review Blue Collar TV is a comic blight, a bastion of jokes well beyond their expiration date culled from e-mail forwards sent by the least funny of your coworkers. Lest you're fooled, Blue Collar TV is not "laughing at" those unaffectionately known as "white trash." Rather, it's a "laughing with" love letter written in BBQ sauce, to people who listen to Toby Keith and treat their hunting dogs with more reverence than their women. But in Blue Collar TV's estimation, literature and college degrees are signs of effete snobbery, the marker of some New York faggot in a Lexus. www.popmatters.com /tv/reviews/b/blue-collar-tv.shtml   (1282 words)
