About

A central valley inhabitant and fan of Fresno State Bulldogs. My first love is the Dodgers and baseball in general.

I make no claim to be an expert writer. I am simply a fan who may be passionate enough about a few subjects to write articles from time to time. I no longer play competitive sports. Never played at any level after high school, where I wrestled and ran cross country.

I do, however, watch sports more than a healthy person should. I consider myself an honest, open-minded fan and writer. I will admit my obvious bias towards the Dodgers and the Fresno State Bulldogs.

Bleacher report is a blessing to fans like myself, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my opinion on this website.

    Former MLB player Eric Karros called my article into question on Colin Cowherd's ESPN Radio show yesterday.

    He challenged me for a re-do: but here's my response.

    I assure you, it's not just a ridiculous personal attack, but it shows that Karros was off-base with his statements.
