Dan's Bio

Dan is a fourth year at the University of Chicago, a die-hard Minnesota Twins fan, an Arsenal fan in training, and a general sports addict. He's also a political junkie, Tenor, Bass, amateur music critic, and huge nerd.

After a year as a BR Intern, Dan has decided to pursue journalism further and has accepted an offer of admission at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism. The jury is still out on whether he'll attempt to cover politics or sports.

  3. Hey Dan-

    Thanks! http://bleacherreport.com/articles/211331-for-tigers-its-time-to-move-on-without-magglio

  4. There are some athletes you're not allowed to criticize.

    Michael Jordan. Tiger Woods. Lance Armstrong.

    Sandy Koufax is one of those guys.

    I've always felt he was overrated. I hear people talk about him as the greatest left-handed pitcher of all-time, and I've never agreed.

    I did a little bit of research and this is what I came up with. I would love if you could take a look. I spent more time on this than any article I have ever written in my entire life, and as a result, it is LONG.

    I actually had to trim it a little - evidently articles can't be over 5,000 words - but I like what I came up with. You don't have to read it all, but I would love if you would.

    Thanks.
    Cody Swartz
