About Brian »

I'm a 28 year old Ex-Marine from Beaver County (just north of Pittsburgh), PA. I have a wife and daughter who I love immensely. I also love the NFL and the NHL. The Steelers and Penguins are the best teams ever in my opinion. I watch every game I can and I love to write about it. I think that people like to read stuff that amateurs have to say just as much as the pro's.

As part of the CBS application, we were all asked to submit a number of questions that we'd ask a player from our favorite team if we ever had the opportunity to interview him, I chose Santonio Holmes, let me know what you think.
