About Adam »

I'm 25 years old, and I graduated from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in 2007 majoring in Mass Communications/Journalism. I'm also doing an editorial internship here on the Bleacher Report, which is cool because I get to read many great articles on here everyday. I was born and raised in Central Illinois, so I have some Illinois sports allegiances (Fighting Illini, Bulls, Blackhawks). Sorry, no Cubs or Bears for me, I'm a St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Chargers fan.

Thanks Adam, could you have a second look, I was adding to the article about the same time and I may have messed up your edit.

Thanks, buddy

Adam, Before he started in on GSP again I did not care which fighter won as long as it was a fair fight, now I am pretty much hoping that Kenny does "make the master his student" and teaches BJ a real lesson.

Thank you for the edits, Adam. Some of those stylistic areas tend to slip my mind. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making this article more streamlined.

On another subject, which team are you more dedicated to, the Chargers or the Steelers?

Adam

Today I break down the possible seedings in the Western Confernce (NBA) from the off season moves that the teams have made. It does need a little edit to. If you don't mind.
