GEOG411 Lab 2 &3: NFL Cardinals Schedule

Flash map one, simple idea, but difficult to show with what we were allowed to use I thought. Had to show the cardinals schedule on map, showing where they played and results - would have been easy to show if all games were away, coloring states for WIN or LOSS there, but then some states have more than one team, and then what do you do with home states?

anyways, this is what i worked out. If tweens or animations were possible, when teams played in arizona, show the team they played, and then move the graphic to the state of the team played against. not sure if it makes sense.

Also, would have been possible to do a road-trip type map, moving the cardinals along a route (next game was played) and leaving behind dashed lines like map, but this would also require tweens
