Question

which statement primarily appeals to logos to support the position that athletes should remain loyal instead of switching teams?
the team - switching mentality has become so entrenched that even high school athletes are doing it, causing newspapers to report the end of the beloved
eighborhood team.\
like many committed sports fans, i have been loyal to one baseball team for my entire life, and i expect the same type of team loyalty from its players.
you may be thinking that athletes should have the freedom to switch teams, just as businesspeople have the freedom to switch jobs; however, athletes owe a certain loyalty to their fans, who often have strong feelings of national or regional pride.

Explanation:

Logos relies on logical reasoning and comparisons. The third statement uses a logical counter to a common argument: it acknowledges the job-switching parallel for businesspeople, then logically draws a distinction by citing athletes' specific obligation to fans tied to regional/national identity, using structured reasoning to support loyalty. The first uses anecdotal media claims, the second uses personal sentiment (pathos), not logical structure.

Answer:

You may be thinking that athletes should have the freedom to switch teams, just as businesspeople have the freedom to switch jobs; however, athletes owe a certain loyalty to their fans, who often have strong feelings of national or regional pride.
