I've been a sports fan for as long as I can remember. Though with me it is more than mere fandom that drives me. For instance, I can't tell you the title of any book I read in high school, but I can tell you that the all-time assists leader in Milwaukee Bucks history is Paul Pressey.
While this information is no doubt worthless to you, I value it as if it were my child. I like to write about the three major sports (NFL, NBA, MLB) as well as college football and basketball with some fantasy sports stuff sprinkled in. I have never gotten into hockey, but I'm not one to degrade it either. NASCAR on the other hand I will just never understand.
I try to throw some humor and non sequiturs into my writing so it isn't just page after page of statistics. Though as I stated earlier ... I got stats too.
I hope you enjoy the stuff I have on here and I welcome comments of agreement or dissention, though let's keep it classy, San Diego.
As for my education, I graduated from college in 2007 with a BA in journalism. While there I worked as a writer for the university paper, covering men's and women's basketball, men's tennis, women's soccer and women's rowing. I also was an editor in charge of updating online sports media for the paper's website.
