Writer bio
One day, I intend to either be in a front office making personnel decisions, or be part of the media analyzing said decisions.
Currently, I am attending Middle Tennessee State University. Despite that, I grew up in the shadow of Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, and still consider myself a Boilermaker at heart. It's for that reason that I'm now a B/R Featured Columnist for Purdue basketball.
I also maintain a blog at http://starr-rated.blogspot.com/. Check there for the occasional Starr* Rated exclusive that does not get posted here on B/R...like the Current Exclusive "UGH-A: A Robot Mascot? WTF?" There, you can also read much of what I post here on B/R, as I intended it, before editors start hacking it up. :-P Kidding, guys, I appreciate the occasio...

Hey, I am a 12 year old from Chicago(i am actually from the suburbs, but i hate explaining). The thing i write about most is The Fighting Illini. They are definately my favorite sports team. Dee Brown, my favorite athlete ever. Admire him so much, he is my role model.

Writer bio
I'm a 25-year old living in Bloomington, Indiana, and finishing school the slow way. Started in 2002, and still here! I love sports, especially the NFL, college basketball, and college football. I grew up rooting for the Bulls, White Sox, and Bears, as well as the Northwestern Wildcats, and have since added the Indiana Hoosiers and North Carolina Tar Heels to my list of favorite teams.
My friend and I run Armchair Superstar over at blogspot.com. We post some of our articles here on Bleacher Report, and keep the fun stuff (Top Sports Memories, Top Chef, etc.) over at the Superstar.

Writer bio
I'm a HUGE fan of ACC Basketball. I follow it closely, and I'm consistently amazed at the talent and level of play that has made it the standard conference in college basketball.
I'll be the first to admit that Duke is the team I root for. It's been that way since I was a 7th grader trying to become a Steve Wojciechowski clone (he's the player I identified with most as a kid), and that will never change.
I'm not saying that I don't approach things objectively...I try to be as objective as possible...but I think it's a good thing for a sports writer to come right out and admit which team he or she favors, instead of pretending like he or she doesn't care who wins (everyone is a fan of someone).
Writing for Bleacher Report has been an absolute pleasure. I have been able to cov...

Writer bio
Born and raised in Grand Rapids Michigan, I grew up a fierce Detroit and Michigan State sports fan. Part of this was induced because of my environment (my family supported those teams), but I always tended to be little more geared up for a game, more elated in victory, and more devastated in defeat. And because I often rooted for losing teams (Football in particular), I was able to develop a fairly unbiased eye in evaluating them. It doesn't make you any less of a fan if you're able to admit that your team needs to work on some things, that it's not always the refs, that the other team didn't play dirty, that sport is just sport after all. This doesn't make you less passionate, only more reasonable. My life and work have taken me far away from Michigan over the years, and though I'...

Sports and travel have long been my two passions. When I stumbled upon Bleacher Report in March 2009, I did not have a real interest in writing, but I have steadily enjoyed learning to like writing. More importantly, I love to explore interesting topics and engage in healthy debate with my fellow sports fans.
Since joining Bleacher Report in March 2009, I have been inspired to chase my dreams. My goal is to develop a sports site that provides information to travelers who are looking for how to make the most of their next sporting event.
Please take a look when you have a chance, and feel free to send any suggestions you may have. I would also love to have you join as a Face Book fan so you can receive updates about our progress.

I am an avid fan of baseball, basketball and football who is interested in the bleacher report and writing to comment on the sports that I love and the impact of those sports on our society. If I continue to enjoy writing articles for b/r maybe I will get motivated enough to try writing all the time. Feedback on what you like (as well as don't like) are appreciated.

I'm a die- hard Michigan State Spartan fan, first off. I love baseball, and I myself, like many of you on BR, am an aspiring writer! I'm the head sports writer at Mott Community College in Flint, Michigan; home of the Bears, and I will now be covering The Flint Generals Hockey Team as well. Go green, restore the roar in Detroit (Tigers), the Lions never had a "roar"... I'm also a huge Wings fan, and I'm awaiting the day the Pistons become an Eastern Conference powerhouse like they've been all decade long. You can find me on facebook at www.facebook.com/gogreensparty (or just add me, Adam Biggers).... please check out my Fanaddicts interview, and subscribe to Tony and Brian's channel... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYzRhP6RfQk baseball,baseball,baseball
