I have been a member of Bleacher Report for about 5 months now and have honestly enjoyed every second of it. From the thrill of finally completing my first article to the excitement of my first comment, the ride has been a blast.
I can remember the first article I wrote, highlighting the ACC Championship contenders. I even included my very own version of the "NCAA Power Rankings" that listed my Top 5 predictions in the rankings for the following week. I was really excited to publish the article because I honestly wanted to know how people enjoyed the article.
I chose the tags that I would list my article under and clicked "Publish". One hour went by, Two hours went by. I sat by the computer screen, wondering if I would ever get to 10 reads. I then called it a night and went to sleep.
I woke up the next morning to find that about 50 people had read my article, and I even had a comment. I was extremely excited at the time, until I realized that 50 reads is not all that great. Still, people had read my article and one person had left his opinion in the form of a comment.
It then took me about a month before I could finally sit down at the computer and begin to write another article. Although the first article had not been a success, I decided not to give up hope and persevere.
This is the standard on Bleacher Report for new writers: Although their first couple of articles may not be successful, they must persevere, never lose hope and get back to writing articles.
At least that was the case for me. Either way, I have enjoyed the experiences I have had since becoming a writer for Bleacher Report.
But this article is not about me or my experiences. This article is written to display some of the new talent that Bleacher Report has to offer. I know that several people have written articles that displays the best Bleacher Report has to offer (such as Leroy Watson, Blaine Spence, BabyTate, Heartbeat Of The Bronx, Jameson Fleming, L.J Burgess, Andrew Nuschler, Ron Johnson, etc.), but I wanted to do something different.
I then decided that I would display some of the up-and-coming writers of Bleacher Report:
The first person I would like to mention is bob bob. Yes, I must admit, a guy with a picture of SpongeBob as his profile picture did surprise me at first. But over my time contributing as a Los Angeles Laker's writer, I have come to identify bob bob as a good friend.
He is probably the happiest person on Bleacher Report, always commenting and leaving a =), but I have truly found that he knows his stuff and is a very good Los Angeles Laker and NBA writer. If you read one of his articles, I promise he won't disappoint.
(bob bob is not really an up-and-coming writer, because he is already succeeding on Bleacher Report, but I still wanted to give him props)
The next person I would like to mention on this list is Ryan Desmarais
