Leo's Bio

My Eagles Blog: http://eagles.sportsscribes.net
I will be posting old and new work as a grouped series on my blog. Upcoming new theme is a profile of the Eagles unsung studs (Keith Byars, Fred Barnett, Byron Evans and Andre Waters) and will be posted on July 10, 2009. Current features: Rookie Profiles.

I am a "Green Blooded", atypical, Philadelphia sports fanatic. I try to follow and support the Phillies, Flyers and Sixers but I concentrate on the football season year round. I try to focus on history and data with some influx of opinion, based on personal experience or observation. I try to keep it positive, but will always call it like I see it.

I participated in college and semi-pro football. I currently coach NFL youth flag football. I have a background in measures and statistics. I crunch numbers, evaluate personnel, report and manage my family business for a living.

You can catch most of my articles among other great Bleacher Report articles by subscribing to Google Alerts or checking the CBSsports.com team page for the Philadelphia Eagles.

I will help in keeping fresh breaking news about the Eagles available at all times on the Eagles bleacher report team page.

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.

I love The Sporting News. And I look forward to its top 100 players every year.

That doesn't mean I can't disagree though...
