Tanner's Bio

Tanner Flowers is a freelance journalist who studied at the University of Missouri.

Born and raised in the southeastern U.S., I closely watch college football, especially SEC football, the NFL, baseball and hockey.

I have written and edited for newspapers, but began to focus on online journalism more recently in my progression through the media.

Thank you for taking a look at my article. I have actually done five seperate edits of the article, so goes to show how much cleaning up I had to do. I'm glad you helped out. Why did you feel the change in title was neccessary?

Tanner, now that's feedback. Thanks for catching my "we's". I've been good at avoiding that lately. Now I changed them.

Please feel free to edit my stuff anytime.

Thanks for the edits, Tanner. That's quite interesting about Peterson coming from Jacksonville instead of Denver...that means my source (Beckett Pro Football 2009 Preview) is incorrect! Thanks for the catch!
