NFC North Top Writers

"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...

A lifetime Green Bay Packer Fan living in the land of the Giants (and Jets).

I am one of the Green Bay Packers Community Leaders on Bleacher Report. Anything you want to discuss, send me a message - I will always respond.

I refuse to write about myself in the third person...

Though relatively new to blogging, writing has always been an interest. Currently, I am the Official Packer Fan voice at www.NFLtouchdown.com, a great site run by Andy Benoit, who has received many accolades for his NFL Draft guides.

My articles also appear on two of the best Green Bay Packer fan sites: Lary Garot's www.Packerchatters.com and Alex Tallitsch's www.Packerslounge.com.

I also maintain my own blog at http://jerseyalgbp.blogspot.com

My wife and I moved out here in 1989. We have adopted the Seattle Seahawks as our second most favorite team but have always remained faithful to the Lions. Not sure why but I can only paraphrase a quote from the great Sidney Lumet movie, 12 Angry Men:

You a Bear Fan?
No, Lions.
Lions? That's like getting hit in the head with a crowbar once a week.

And yet, I still hope for the best.

I was a major contributor to the now defunct (as of 03/13/2009) Fire Millen.com website where I was also known as Seattle Lion Fan. But since that joyus day in September of 2008, the site doesn't quite have the same meaning as it once did. Sad to say, firemillen.com will not be going under a name change but instead, the owner has decided to shut the site down.

I cut my writing chops on ...

Writer bio

Location: Cleveland, Ohio

I'm not a guy who has too much knowledge about any one sport and if I do it's football. I am a guy however who knows a little about every sport and I keep up enough to know "WHO" alot of the players are. I may not know much about their skills, but know enough to comment on them from time to time. Hopefully you will like what I have to say and I can continue to voice my opinion on matters that I feel need commented on.

I am a sophomore at Marquette University majoring in Journalism. I am part of a team that does a radio show Monday Mornings from 8am-10am on MUR. I went to every Marquette Golden Eagles home game this year and consider myself a die-hard fan to three teams: the aforementioned Marquette Warriors, the Green Bay Packers, and the Milwaukee Brewers.

I want to thank my parents for giving me the motivation to be my best at everything I do, my three brothers for being my best friends in the world, and my friends for being my biggest supporters. To all who edit my articles and leave feedback, thank you very much. I realize I do not contact them as I should, but I appreciate every edit a lot.

The original Green Bay Packers and San Jose Sharks Community Leader was born in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, attended University Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and lives in San Francisco, California. He's been working for non-profits since 1992 and the performing arts since 1994.

Used to be a huge baseball fan, but was turned off by the imbalance of payrolls; used to be a huge basketball fan, but was turned off by an imbalance of officiating. Now it's first and foremost NFL and NHL, followed by college football, basketball, and hockey. If you belittle someone, suggest they are dumb for holding their opinion or suggest it does not belong in print, expect MJ to respond as a hockey enforcer!

Two articles from here were featured internationally, on CBSsports.com and FoxSports.com. Also a paid write...

I am a 23 year old reservationist currently living in Honolulu, HI.

I am a born and raised, die hard Bears fan. They are my #1 team.

( When I was young, my dad used to tell me that every week, I should cheer for two football teams; the Bears and whoever is facing the Packers. Now that has extended to three teams: Bears, whoever is facing the Packers and whoever is facing Brett Favre. I hate that man)

I like the watching the Mets, Cubs, and Rangers. (kinda like the Royals, but its hard to keep up with them.) All that said, the best fans in Major League Baseball are Cardinal fans.

I wasnt a Jordan supporter during his reign cause I was a Reggie Miller and John Stockton fan and Jordan always seemed to beat them. I liked the Bulls after Jordan left AND those 2 years where he...

Hello fellow Bleacher creatures, my name is Tanner Thoms. I am a 16 year old from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. No, we do not still ride on horses to get around, New Yorkers.

I'm a great fantasy football player. I've won in two leagues over the past three years. If you need any advice on it, email me at Tannerthoms28@yahoo.com I check it daily.

Thanks for reading!
