I am a sophomore at the University of Oregon and I have an unhealthy addiction for sports. The Oakland A's and Major League Baseball are my biggest passions, but for some reason college football and the Ducks are creeping up as a close second. I am double-majoring in Sports Marketing and Public Relations, and am currently interning with San Francisco-based boutique tech PR firm, Vineberg Communications. Inspired by Bill Simmons and the guys from Around the Horn, I am not your typical sports writer. So if you're tired of the typical AP style game-recaps, and want witty, insightful prose about the Oregon Ducks from a college student's point of view, I am your resource. I have my own blog called the The UO Sports Dude, to visit, go to http://uosportsdude.com

I'm a sports enthusiast in the purest form. I love any sport, especially college football. I enjoy writing about sports almost as much as I do watching them. I love getting any kind of feedback on my articles and want to continue to improve as I go along. Don't be shy about leaving comments, I will do my best to get back to them within the day. I especially appreciate any critiquing on my writing style I receive, so feel free to leave some.

I'm a 25 year old male out of Columbus, OH, where I still continue to live (sort of). I've always enjoyed writing, and I've always enjoyed sports, though I never even thought of combining the two until I stumbled on Bleacher Report in November, 2009. Hockey is by far my sport of choice, though I also enjoy football and even some tennis.

I work full-time for a high-end clothing store by day, and then balance watching sports and keeping the wife happy by night. Up to two nights a week, I also tend goal for a couple of local beer league roller hockey teams.

What's good B/R Community my name is Mike and sports are my passion. I LOVE baseball, football, and wrestling; but I will never shy away from talking any sport. My favorite baseball team the boys from the Bronx, my football team has gotta be the Tampa Bay Bucs (I use to live in Florida), and my favorite wrestler is easily Shelton Benjamin, the things this man does in the ring is truly remarkable.

I find it most disturbing that a website where fans can write in about the sports they love is sponsored by soft porn sites such as Barely Sports. I never really thought about mixing Sports and sex together. I guess I can watch Roman-Greco wrestling and American football in a whole new light.

Also, you got a love those GET RIPPED ads....get ripped in four weeks...yeah right...get ripped...off!

Im a life long Red Sox fan. Ive lived in the Boston area my whole life and Ive been going to Fenway since the mid 80s. I run the blog MassholeSports.com

I don't considered myself a writer but I get so caught up in Boston sports that I need a place to release some of these ideas and opinions that are running rampant in my head. So the blog is very therapeutic for me.

Most of my writing is opinion/editorial. Im not a journalist so Im not going to race to be the first one to post breaking news. But I will write about how badly certain players suck or I will write and give my sarcastic, humorous, twisted opinions on issues involving Boston sports teams and players.

Sincerely,

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (loved watching him whoop Couture ... has he ever looked better or more prepared?)
Tyson Griffin (earned a much needed stoppage against Hermes Franca, who eats nails for breakfast. Look out, Jim Miller!)

Whats up everyone! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and check out my profile.

Writer bio

I am a young Lebanese-Canadian writer who has great passion for football. I am the co-community leader for Serie A alongside my friend Daniel Penza on Bleacher Report.

I enjoy watching, talking, playing, reading and obviously writing about football. I am a huge fan of Serie A football and my big, impersonal mission on B/R is to hype Serie A and help B/R continue on growing.

My favorite kinds of writing include sarcastic humor which is best-flavored with a good story as a background for an article in order for the humor to have a clear objective which is to criticize a flow and try to provide a motive to bring change.

I hold rebellious ideas in the world of politics. Yet these tendencies are covered up with a modernized mentality and yet some classical beliefs that are essentia...

Tom is a former sports writer for the Tampa Tribune. He spent 10 years covering Florida State football, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the PGA Tour. He won two national writing awards from the Golf Writers Association of America.

During his Tribune days, he had personal interviews with Jack Nicklaus, Muhammad Ali, Bear Bryant, Don Shula, and a long list of legendary athletes. During the 1979 Florida State football season, coach Bobby Bowden dubbed Edrington his "personal good-luck charm." It was an incredible season for FSU and culminated with the national championship game in the old Miami Orange Bowl where the Seminoles were defeated by the Barry Switzer-coached Oklahoma squad led by Heismann Trophy winner Billy Sims.

"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...

Brian was born and raised in the Youngstown, Ohio, area. He had a passion for writing from a very early age and a rabid interest in fantasy gaming that resulted in unfair stereotyping (He never dressed up, that would be stupid.)

Brian remembers Red Right 88 and the other great Cleveland Browns teams doomed to failures of epic proportions and hopes one day to see the Lombardi Trophy raised in Cleveland. He defends the Browns to the death, whether they deserve it or not and continues to try and convert his wife (A Steelers fan) to the orange and brown.

Brian's family was very sports-minded and he began following the Browns and Indians at a very young age. Most of his hair loss can be attributed to the departure of the original Browns franchise in 1995 and the 1997 World Series, whic...

Born and raised in upstate New York and northern New Jersey, finding a team to root for wasn't exactly a task. If anything, the area boasted more of an "embarrassment of riches" than any other place in the world. So, I adopted the Yankees, Jets, and Rutgers as my teams, and as you would expect from any mid-20's guy in this area, I take them pretty seriously.

How seriously? Well, let's just say the correlation between my blood pressure and the scoreboard is no coincidence.

I'm a Rutgers alum (New Brunswick campus) and a season ticket holder for football. With the program's awakening over the past few years, it's an exciting time to be around Rutgers Football, and the future looks bright.

I primarily focus my writing here on B/R on Rutgers Football, and I like to t...

I love the opportunities Bleacher Report brings me, and I love representing one of the greatest colleges in the United States of America even more. I have been a Jayhawk as long as I can remember and will always be a Jayhawk no matter what.

Pardon the cliche, but nothing would please me more than getting paid to watch sports. I would also like to be a missionary at some point, and maybe teach or coach a subject or sport at a grade-school level.

Outside of sports, I love my family, eating (chicken, pasta, and chocolate), God, cartoons, and a wonderful blond-haired nursing major by the name of Heather.

I'm a recent graduate of Georgetown University starting the long and lonely road down a writing career. Wish me luck.

Things you should know about me:
1) I originally hail from Philadelphia. Yes, that explains why most of my subject matter (so far) has been Philadelphia sports teams... I write what I know, and I write about what's near and dear to me.
2) I spent the past four years in the Georgetown school band... meaning I spent a LOT of time watching Georgetown basketball (and terrible football, for that matter). I also got a free trip to the 2007 Final Four, and that Jeff Green "block" was a charge on Greg Oden (you know which one I'm talking about).
3) In order, my preference of sports: NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL. Throw tennis above hockey. I really don't care about ho...

I have come from the future to live in the past, or should I now call it the present? The future is so damn boring there. I need a break from the constant enlightenment and I seek entertainment and filth. I desire a life void of deeper meaning than sports.

Writer bio

Born in Omaha, Nebraska in 1983. While I only lived there four years, the family brainwashing took full effect, and I've come to care about Nebraska football above pretty much everything except God and my family. Someone who isn't a Husker fan wouldn't understand the passion I have for them, though I'm sure a few SEC fans would beg to differ. College football is the best sport on earth, and in my opinion, nothing else comes close. If I could bottle the air on a late-autumn Saturday and wear it as cologne, I would.

I lived in Iowa for 10 years before moving to Bloomington, Minnesota, which is where I currently reside. I graduated from Bethel University with a history degree (which turns out is basically a $30,000 piece of toilet paper). I also played football there for two years as a...
