About Jeff »

I am a student at Grand Valley State University where I am studying Pre- Law. I enjoy writing sports journalism because it is something that keeps me busy. I have no restrictions on what I will write about. Sometimes things just come to me and I feel like ranting about something that is completely out there and most people would never expect to hear about.

Hey Jeff,

Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

Thanks in advance!
