About

Well. . . I have attended three different Universities, and am about to attend my fourth. As a result, I follow a lot of different college sports teams. I went to Iowa State for two years, then transferred to TCU. I graduated from TCU and now attend Notre Dame for my masters. Then in the fall of 2009 I will start my PhD at the University of Arizona. So basically I follow all four schools, thus I also follow the Mountain West, Big 12, Big East, and Pac-10 closely, but I keep up with all the conferences. Though college sports are certainly my favority, everything from college tennis to football to baseball, I also follow the pros. I grew up in Oklahoma and Texas, so I primarily follow the Dallas professional teams. In addition to the popular US sports, I am also a follower of cricket and rugby, I lived in New Zealand for 7 months and have become addicted to these two sports. I wrote for rivals for a little bit in undergrad, but now I am just on my own writing for fun. Hopefully you all enjoy my stuff.
