*A big thank you to all the fans of my work here at B/R. My first AOTD, The True Story of Knute Rockne: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/265043-the-true-story-of-knute-rockne-college-footballs-most-renowned-coach

Being from North Jersey, I have been a Yankees fan since the day I was brought into this world. On the other hand—I am not a Giants fan. Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And most importantly.. I am an over-obsessive, subway alumni of the University of Notre Dame.

Happy to be serving as Notre Dame's newest Featured Columnist.

I currently play basketball and am also a single-digit handicap golfer. I'm a fan of all sports, but I pay in extreme attention to College Football and Basketball, the MLB, and the NFL. The reason I joined the site is to ready myself for my journey into a ...

I'm a Double Domer with a strong interest for Fighting Irish football. I specialize in the numbers, meaning I track statistics and the schematic chess matches that go on during the games. I also write editorials about whatever piques my interest. Finally, I have my own college football computer ranking system which can be found at http://ClashmoreMike.com where I write.

Writer bio

I am a lifelong sports fan. Football is my passion. I am originally from Michigan but have lived in Hawaii for 10 years. My teams are all the Detroit teams, especially the Red Wings. I have a unique rooting interest in college football. I love Notre Dame, but I root for Michigan whenever they are not playing Notre Dame. The reason is that I am from Michigan but my Irish Catholic roots outrank where I am from. I love seeing Michigan and Notre Dame players succeed in the NFL. My two favorite Quarterbacks are both named Brady. While Tom Brady is well on his way to a hall of fame career, Brady Quinn needs to find a way to get out of Loserville, I mean Cleveland. The Browns have done nothing but screw him since they drafted him and he needs to be on a team that appreciates his talents.

I'm a long suffering Clevelander, now living in exile in the Washington, DC area. I grew up with a family obsessed with Notre Dame football, and have made it to at least one Irish game almost every year since I was 6 (25 years if you are counting... I'm not!). My uncle was the president of the Ohio Alumni association which, in addittion to getting me reamed out by Regis Philbin in Columbus for the 1995 ND/OSU games has offered me many insights and experienced usually reserved for students of the University.
I stupidly turned that oppertunity down (what was I thinking) and instead went on to Pittsburgh to earn a degree in Orthotics and Prosthetics (braces and artificial limbs), a field in which I work to fund my music and writing hobbies!
I never alligned myself much with the Panthers...

Writer bio

I live and breath Notre Dame football and nothing in the sports world comes close to it in my mind. I played hockey for years and I love the NHL. I find the NFL boring at times but it is too big to ignore. I like baseball more than the average guy but basketball less so. I think it would be amazing to be a professional golfer and travel the world writing about everything I see. Outside of sports I am heavy into music and have a healthy obsession with the Beatles. I look forward to sharing my opinion with everyone.

I have a degree in Government from St. Lawrence University and I am now working for a company that supplies the NFL, MLB, NHL, NCAA, and thousands of schools and doctors with sports medicine products.

I currently spend my time playing my Gretsch guitar while paying atte...

"no longer riding on the merry-go-round...I just had to let it go."
- John Lennon

I admit I used to play the game where I was focused on moving up the ladder at B/R, trying my best to be the top writer and all that. But now I no longer pimp my articles, or look for websites to artificially increase readership, and I'm satisified writing what I want and not some nonsence just to attract reads.

Yep, I spent about a year ranked #1 in MLB and the Cubs, and was ranked as high as #2 overall on the site at one time. These days, I am happy simply contributing to the site and allowing others to take the mantle.

I think I am still the Chicago Cubs community leader, and I know I am a featured columnist for the Cubs and Bears. I have written more than 500 articles, though I ca...

I am a fan of just about all sports. I know football the best and love to break down games and do my best to try to predict winners. I have taught myself the game of hockey and now enjoy the game and would love to see it grow. I will write about any and everything in the sports world and I hope everyone enjoys.

I'm just your average guy who loves sports.

I also like to cover more than just college football. This includes baseball, college basketball, hockey, auto racing (NASCAR and sometimes IRL), and the NFL.

College football is the dominant sport in my life, though. I watch every game that I possibly can. I have season tickets for the Vanderbilt Commodores since the stadium is just an hour from where I live. I love everything Tennessee. I root for just about every Tennessee team there is.

Hope you've learned a little more about me.

I love college football, especially Notre Dame Football. Let's say I'm old enough to have seen every home game in Notre Dame Stadium since 1971 in person. There's no other program like the Irish. None.

My dream job would be GM of the Seattle SuperSonics. Now my dream is dead. So I will have to get Mark Cuban money, buy a team ( I don't care who) and move them back. Then I could be the Jerry Jones of the NBA. If I can't be the Sonics GM, then how about the Seahawks GM?

Thanks to Bleacher Report I have been lucky enough to have NBA, NFL, Draft and Fantasy articles appear on or linked from FOXSports.com, CBSSports.com, USAToday.com, TNT.tv (NBA on TNT Page), LA Times Fabulous Forum, NYDailyNews.com, MSG.com, Canada.com, AskMen.com, and a handful of blogs and websites.

I've worked as a sportswriter at two daily newspapers, written text for baseball, basketball and football cards backs for Fleer and have interned at the home of hockey maven Stan Fischler. I've also served as a managing editor at a daily newspaper, entertainment publication and most recently, Wizard Entertainment, where I helped oversee the daily operations of four national pop culture mags, four national conventions and two websites.

But my first love has always been sports dating back to when my parents took me to see Lew Alcindor (yes, it was the pre-Kareem days) and the Bucks play Walt Frazier and the Knicks.

Welcome to Waylon's World. I'm Chad Waylon Pouncy. I am a 29 year old looking to get back into college and do something better than make pizza for a living. Writing about sports is something I have thought about since i was a kid so i figured I would make a serious run at it.

I just recently received my Masters degree form Cal State Northridge and am considering the pursuit of my PHD in social studies/history. Along the way, I have developed a passion for USC football, which I have followed for more than twenty years. In a somewhat less myopic state of mind, I also follow all things college football and most sports in general. My other passion is politics and I am very involved in following the day to day workings of the Washington DC movers and shakers. Now single after my ex-fiance got smart, I have decided that my next relationship will be with a woman who matches my interests or can share me with the things I love. In the meantime, I will get along following the things that make me happy.

I'm Alex, I'm from London, and I have a job as a journalist. About insurance. If there's anything that can drive the person truly mad, it's years of writing about insurance. Trust me. I know.
But my biggest love is sports. In the UK I love my soccer teams, but I have my big American passions: baseball and football. Sure, I can deal with the odd NBA game and March Madness, as well as a bit of the NFL, but give me Ken Griffey's swing and a Penn State White Out any day of the week.
So here I am. I have a blog - The View From North America - http://viewfromnorthamerica.blogspot.com that I hope you'll look at at some point.
Oh, and I also have a column on the UK's biggest commercial website, Sky Sports. Here's the link: http://www.skysports.com/opinion/0,25219,16560,00.html

Hi y'all. I'm a 20-year old college student at Rice University. I have been actively writing about sports for five years with a focus in college football, tennis, golf, horse racing, and folkstyle wrestling. I am currently working on a freelance piece about the 1969 Texas Longhorns football team. Furthermore, I am researching the University of Texas football team since 1957 and its effect on perceptions of race within the state.

Retired Australian tennis player Wayne Arthurs is my hero. His matches have helped me pull through some of my lower moments.

Hey everyone. Nice to see you on my page.

I am obviously a huge sports fan and just as big a fan of writing about sports. I like to consider myself a sports encyclopedia, and here are some other things I believe:

- I know Jordan pushed off Russell, but then again, it was Jordan
- MLB players who test positive for performance-enhancing drugs should be suspended one full season for their first offense
- I prefer GoodFellas over The Godfather
- Curling is not a sport
- Tony Romo will never get to the Super Bowl, let alone win it
- Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time
- Barry Sanders is the best running back in NFL history

I am a 1986 graduate of the University of Notre Dame living in the heart of Orange County, California. Working hard and raising two kids with my wonderful wife (SMC '86), I'm running the rat race like everyone else I see on the freeways of Southern California.

So I'll share my opinions about Fighting Irish football, the University in general, politics, and anything else that comes to mind.

I have been watching Notre Dame football almost religiously for the last ~20 years. I am an avid college football fan (I would watch over the NFL any day), I typically watch a Big 10 game, then ND, then the game on ESPN or ABC depending on who is playing. It annoys my wife to no end, trust me. I'm also a huge Cubbies fan, but I am not sure if they have the pieces in 2009...

I agree with LJ Burgess. God Bless TW Krems.

I'm a guy who got in football too late to play it in high school or college. But I love it too much to give up, so I intend to follow my dreams and do what the inspirational movies tell you to do. I want to be a great sportswriter on NFL and maybe be on the Hall of Fame Committee and an analyst for ESPN or NFL, I will not give it up no matter what.

I've recently been named a Community Leader for the Dallas Cowboys. I intend to keep that position for quite some time. But, I am not solely a Cowboy writer. I write on multiple subjects, and do a Cowboy piece every few articles.

I like multiple teams b/c of certain players, but I am true blue down to my toenails. I feel like the disappointment of Dallas not doing so well this past season ...
