Shady's Bio

Hi, I am Shady Botros. I was born in Egypt but I moved to Philadelphia five years ago . I am a die hard Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies, Sixers fan. in college sports i like the Penn State Nittany Lions football. I hope to become a sports writer or analyst. Jayson Stark, Michael WIlbon, Bill Simmons, Sal Paolantonio, Buster Olney, and Ric Bucher are my favorite writers. i despise Duke Basketball, the New York Yankees, the New York Mets, Boston Celtics, and the Dallas Cowboys.

Hey Shady,

I just completed the second of a three part series between myself, Mike Kline and Justin McTeer, breaking down the Duke Blue Devils basketball season.

I highlight the back court of Duke and the different players that will need to contribute to the team. If you get a chance, check it out.

Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks!
