About Andrew »

Andrew Smith is a freshman at a small college in Ohio. He currently majors in journalism, and aspires to one day be a author or sportswriter.

His favorite sports teams are the Michigan Wolverines and the New York Mets. He has a measured appreciation for the Dallas Cowboys as well. He loves his New York Mets, but is depressed greatly at their recent collapse.

He is also currently suffering through the tough times of Michigan football. He still roots for his team, but whether he be a maize-clad, obnoxious fan at the Big House or a quiet, more reserved one in front of a television surrounded by a crowd of Buckeye fans, he still has not lost touch with his objectivity. He understands that the Wolverines have a lot of changes to make before returning to the national stage.

Andrew loves to read, loves to write, and loves to interact with other sports fanatics- even if they are Brave or Buckeye fans.

The Shortlist »

Favorite Athletes

Johan Santana, David Wright, Jose Reyes, Carlos Beltran, Braylon Edwards, Mike Piazza, Tom Brady, Tiger Woods, Tony Romo, Chauncy Billups. Old School favorites: Stan Musial, Ted Williams, Willy Mays, Lou Gehrig, Tom Seaver, Bob Gibson.
Favorite Sports Teams

New York Mets, Michigan Wolverines.
All Time Sports Moment

I've got two: -Mario Manningham's game-winning touchdown against undefeated Penn State in 2005. -Endy Chavez robbing Scott Rolen of a home run in Game 7 of the 2006 NLCS (yeah, we lost. So what?)
Most Memorable Game Attended

The best games were all losses for my team. It's hard to beat 2007 Michigan- Appalachian State.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

In our day and age, it's got to be Cy Young's 511 career wins. I mean, come on, the guy would pitch 400 innings in a season during his prime.
Ruth or Mays?

Mays, Babe Ruth was fat.
Unitas or Montana?

Unitas. Montana played for Notre Dame, so he doesn't count.
Pele or Maradona?

Pele.
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Big Ten.

SEC media policy makes it hard on fans, freelance journalists (of which many B/R writers are both). Thoughts?

Hey Andrew,

I hope you've been enjoying the new and improved Bleacher Report—we're really happy with the feedback we've received so far.

Just thought I'd let you know that next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements, and thus it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Andrew!
