Writer bio
John comes from prestigious beginnings all of which he pretty much forgets. Most maintain John is an odd person, yet he maintains everyone else is odd so much so that they can’t recognize his greatness. Under the guise of a mild mannered sports reporter, there lies a pool of random knowledge and numerous ideas.
John is possibly one of the greatest minds of the 20th and 21st centuries, matching wits with Chad “Ocho Cinco” Johnson, Pete Rose, Jose Canseco and Bill Walton. He has studied at notable schools such as Frankie’s school for the extremely stupid, and Clown college.

Writer bio
Born in the pristine southern city of Savannah, Georgia, I lived a Huck Finn childhood of fishing, shrimping, crabbing,and swimming in the intercoastal waterways of coastal Georgia. I grew up playing football, baseball, basketball, and boxing. I now live in the beautiful state of Idaho, and enjoy the drop-dead gorgeous outdoors here in the Gem State. What a place to live!! Though I now live in Idaho, I remain loyal to the Georgia Bulldogs. I bleed Bulldog red and black! How 'bout them DAWGS! I have written weekly articles for several newspapers over the past 15 years, and enjoy reading the articles on Bleacher Report.

Writer bio
I am 24 years old, I live in Northern Virginia, and in real life I am a newspaper reporter. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in English, and I was a substitute teacher for a few months before becoming a writer.
I am somewhat of an oddity as a sports fan. I love the Boston Red Sox and I hate the New York Yankees. I love the New York Giants and I hate the Dallas Cowboys. I love the Dallas Mavericks and I hate the San Antonio Spurs, the Los Angeles Lakers, the Golden State Warriors, and the Miami Heat.
My favorite players are Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Youkilis and Eli Manning in approximately that order. I think Alex Rodriguez, Tony Romo and Dwyane Wade should burn in hell. I don't like Tim Duncan, but goddamit I respect him.
I am not a fair-weather fan. I liked the Red S...

Big cricket nut, but enjoy most team sports especially NFL and MLB.
Main interest is the social history of sport and its relationship with politics. I feel you can't really understand sport in isolation from the wider factors that influence the world in which we live.

Writer bio
I was born in Highbury, London, longer ago than anyone can remember. The sports that really interest me as a spectator are F1 and international football, although I cannot find club football personally involving enough nowadays. I also like to watch the big cycle tours, although after many years I am still struggling to understand the tactics. The only sport I have participated in as an adult is clay shooting.

Writer bio
My name is Jason and I was born in Trenton, MI and raised in Brooklyn, MI. Have been a lifelong Michigan Wolverines fan and have a great disdain for anything from that armpit to the south. My own grandmother was born in Ohio and I've always held it against her. Me and a buddy shared season tickets to the Big House from 2003-2007 but since my move to Chicago in the summer of 2008 we will not be renewing. I didn't have the grades in high school or the money to go to the University of Michigan so I instead attended Central Michigan but never let the maroon and gold take over my maize and blue blood. I went to school for journalism and am now seeking a career as a sports reporter with a goal to write about anything Wolverines.

Writer bio
Being a big Boston red Sox fan in the middle of Pennsylvania can be a pretty lonely business. I know that many will argue this point, stating that there are tons of Red Sox fans everywhere since '04 and '07, but in my neck of the woods it's mostly darkness and crickets.
The three main avenues for my free time these days include reading, writing, and the Red Sox. I try to be as objective as possible in my writing, but I am what I am and will make no apologies for it.
Aside from the Sox, my other sports interests include Notre Dame Football, the Philadelphia Eagles & the NFL, the Phillies, and to a small extent, Penn State Football. You couldn't pay me enough to go to an NBA game and hockey, though I don't despise it like I do pro basketball, just doesn't hold my interest. G...

Writer bio
Hi, I'm Eric Gomez. Currently, I'm a Television, Film and New Media Major attending San Diego State University in (you guessed it) San Diego, California. Aside from writing and enjoying sports, I design websites in my spare time and wonder why the San Diego Padres haven't had a pitcher throw a no-hitter or a batter hit for the cycle.

27 - Joel Koch
Writer bio
Hey everyone, my name is Joel. I'm a 20 year old college student from Illinois. I'm majoring in History. Don't let that fool you because I'm a big time sports fan. I bleed red, blue and orange. You will see some bias in my articles because bias based opinions make reading articles more fun. It adds color :-)
Anyway, I'm a big time St. Louis Cardinals fan. I have been since I was five years old. I still remember the days when Ray Lankford was the most feared hitter on the team. My ultimate favorite day was July 31, 1997 when my favorite player of all time (Mark McGwire) was added via trade to the Cardinals. That was a great day. I also said I bleed blue and orange for the Univeristy of Illinois Fighting Illini. Great school and a great sports program.
I don't watch the NBA or NASCA...
