Hey Yahya, I really enjoyed your last two articles. Just from reading those two I would like to ask you if you want to be a writer for my site http://thesportingtruth.com. If you don't want to be, you can instead give me permission to post your articles on my site with of course your name and picture by it.

Let me know what you think

thanks,

Ari

Welcome to Bleacher Report, Yahya.

I see you've gotten off to a decent start. Aspiring writers like you make B/R what it is today. To move up the ranks on B/R - You need two things - consistency and determination. Your first article has shown you have quality.

Knock on my door for any further assistance.

Hi Yahya!

I just got your note on my Bulletin Board. I'm swamped right now with the breaking John Calipari story, and I want to have a little time to examine your article.

Rest assured that I will be happy to give you every pointer that I can. I hope to get back to you today but if I don't just be patient with me for a bit! lol

Sorry I didnt see your note... I purchased iwantstats.com a long time ago and I had a big (i mean huge) plan for a sports website. It was going to be expensive and costly to build out then the economy sunk so I am just holding onto my ideas. In the mean time I tried to used it to highlight some draft stuff and what not but I just dont have the time to build/maintain the site. I would love to read your Wade article, dont be turned off if I try to rip it apart!

Post me a link when its up.
