About Tyler »

I'm a student at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee, and a native of Baltimore, Maryland. Baseball, football and college basketball are my main interests, but I enjoy watching NCAA lacrosse and I'm beginning to develop appreciations for hockey, soccer and a host of other sports. My favorite sporting event is the Little League World Series.

Of the few articles I've written so far, the ones I like the most are about college football (the links are below). Any feedback you give me is welcomed.

    New Article: Ravens' Play In Loss to Colts Proves They Still Have a Chance

    Colts 17, Ravens 15 is a long way from what I thought the score would be, and in that respect, I'm very pleased, but at the same time, I'm upset because they had a shot to win that game and they blew it...

    Today, the Ravens lost to the Cincinnati Bengals, 17-14, in a heartbreaking last second defeat. Why did they lose? It's quite simple actually. Give it a read/comment.

    I'm FINALLY writing about the Orioles again. I was very busy with Ravens stuff. But this is basically an offseason preview. The O's will be plenty busy this offseason, and here, I answered how the O's problems can be fixed, and actually pretty easily.

    Hey Tyler,

    Thanks for the kind words about my writing. Don't sell yourself short. I thought your Bradford article was really well done.

    As for my connection to the Ravens, it's somewhat of a long story that isn't worth telling. I live in the D.C. area now, though, so it's fun being a contrarian in Redskins land.

    Anyway, keep up the good work. If you ever want to kick any ideas or drafts of articles my way, I'd be happy to give you my thoughts.

    Take it easy.

    I personally love what the Ravens are doing. They showcase consistency, perseverance, the ability to win on the road, which all great teams MUST do, and of course, the sudden offense. Take a look at this analysis I put together on how times are a-changin' in Baltimore with Harbaugh and Flacco. Comments would be appreciated, as I spent some good time on this.

    I've spent the past several weeks adding to a piece dedicated to one of the father's of college football, Knute Rocke. In time for his dedication tomorrow at Notre Dame Stadium, I present to you the true and inspiring story of the most renown coach in the game:

    Don't be shy, and as always, feedback is appreciated.

    I finished an article about the 2008 Baltimore Ravens offseason. This was singlehandedly WHY the Ravens were able to turn it around in 2009, and why they'll be good for a long, long time. Give it a look! Thanks as always.

    I just finished an article about the 2008 NFL Draft. I don't think anyone realizes just how great that draft was. The talent up and down is mind-boggling. You have Jake Long, Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Chris Johnson, Matt Forte, DeSean Jackson, and others like Dustin Keller, Ryan Clady, Jonathan Stewart, Felix Jones, Ray Rice, John Carlson, Steve Slaton, and others. Check out this article I worked hard on about just how good that draft was. Thanks.

    PS: Game 1 was AWESOME.

    Give this a look. During my time on B/R, I've seen some pretty bad articles. A few have been bashing Joe Flacco. That won't do. Here's a nice rebuttal I wrote.
