About Brian »

Brian Carson was born in Central Pennsylvania in 1966 and fell in love with sports by the time he was six years old. Football and hockey were his favorites and he has spent many frustrating, sometimes exciting, years rooting for the St. Louis Rams and Boston Bruins.

Brian was a sportswriter for 14-plus years with various daily newspapers in Central Pennsylvania before he left to help his wife Maria run their restaurant business in 2004. Sports never left him and Brian continued to write for various Internet sports sights and blogs - including the Pennsylvania Football News.

Brian is now committed to coming back as a sportswriter on a full-time basis, on the Internet, with the Bleacher Report as his launching pad.

This is an important piece that needs to be read by all B/R members.

Hopefully you read it and even spread word, so everyone can see things from a new perspective.

What up everyone? I wrote an article about the changes here on B/R over the last couple of months, and about some of the things that we used to have, that we don't anymore. If you could, check it out.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/261261-dear-bleacher-report-please-bring-back-the-old-format

As I have said in the past, many times, I am not on here for AOTD votes, but I believe that if enough of you give me your AOTD vote, then maybe the higher ups will bring back some of the things that are gone.

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.
