Steven's Bio

Let's set one thing first. Baseball is my life. I spend countless hours watching players and looking up stats on thebaseballcube.com. I also enjoy football, basketball, and hockey once in a while. My favorite sports team in the Chicago Cubs, who cause a lot of heartbreak in my family. Every season I want to believe it's their year. One day my friend Eric told me about a website where you can post articles about many different sports and read others as well. Being a undecided high schooler, I decided to try it out. Sports writing is now a great passion of mine.
