About John »

High school student, who loves all sports especially baseball, footbal, and basketball. The only team i root for is the Washington Redskins, and I am as die-hard as they come. Aspiring sports writer or broadcaster. I love any and all kinds of debate and more than welcome contradicting opinions. Please don't let my age stop you from reading my articles. Please check out my blog; Redskins Fans Only, No Cowgirls Allowed (www.talkinskins.blogspot.com) if you have a chance. Thanks to everyone who reads my work.

Thanks for the note. My two books have dealt with Redskins history in a unique way, with an account of every game in team history. The one I'm working on now takes that to another level with an account of every game plus a look at all of the events that surrounded them. You can take a look at RedskinsChronicle.com to get a better idea about that one.

I'd be happy to talk about the process of writing a book, why don't you shoot me an email at rich.tandler+bleacher@gmail.com with a few specific questions and we can take it from there.

Hey John, thanks for checking it out.

I do think Harvin is a good fit for the Skins offense. A lot of pressure is going to be on Jim Zorn and Jason Campbell, and I do believe they need a dynamic offensive player this season. Harvin will be that player right away no doubt. He is a very good fit for the Skins.
