About Sean »

At 5'9, 180 lbs. and listed as Fullback #20 in your programs thanks to an error with the printers, Sean Scampton is a four-sport (football, basketball, baseball, and chess) career backup and budding sports writer. Although he was captain of his high school swim team, so there is that. Sean is looking to turn three of his passions, namely sports, writing, and working in your undies, into a career. He loves competitive sport in all shapes and sizes. He has a particular passion for the NFL, the NBA, the MLB, the NHL, as well as Fantasy Football.

Sean joined the Bleacher Report to meet other sports writers and fans. He is also here to practice his own skills and to improve upon them with the help of the Bleacher Report community. Sean writes for Focus Magazine in Lakeland, FL and is currently pursuing more freelancing opportunities in the Minneapolis, MN area. If you like, you can contact him at sscampton@gmail.com.

Favorite Sports Teams

Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tampa Bay Rays, Tampa Bay Lightning, Orlando Magic
Favorite Coaches

Tony Dungy, Greg Popovich, Mike Sciosia, Joe Maddon
All Time Sports Moment

In 2004, Ronde Barber intercepted Donovan McNabb near the end zone and ran it back 99 yards for the game sealing TD, sending my hometown Bucs to its first Super Bowl.
Most Memorable Game Attended
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Cal Ripken's consecutive games played record (2,632 games)
Ruth or Mays?

Mays. If Ruth plays in May's era, he isn't as dominant and wouldn't have the cool pitching stats. If Mays played in Ruth's era, he would have cleared 800 home runs.
Unitas or Montana?

Montana. It's close, but Montana can call scoreboard with 4 rings to Unitas' 1.
Jordan or Russell?

Bill Freaking Russell!!! One of the most underrated legends of all time! Not saying that he was necessarily better then Jordan, but everyone says Jordan. Let's give the guy some love.
Gretzky or Orr?
Pele or Maradona?
Federer or Sampras?
Tiger or Nicklaus?
Petty or Earnhardt?

Earnhardt. How he managed to dominate races like that, I'll never know. We will never see a guy like him again.
Schumacher or Senna?
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

I want to say the ACC. I do. But the SEC is the strongest conference overall.

When it comes time, remind me, because I tend to get wrapped up in writing on here and another site; I never discount an inner-division opponent. Those are the teams to watch out for, and I know how solid the Bucs play at home, period.

Yeah, I saw that you're a Bucs fan, all the more reason to become a fan so in the event the Bucs sneak up on my Cats, you can bust my chops about it, lol. I don't discount the Bucs at all, especially inner-division games, unless they get banged up. Looks to be a very interesting season for the NFC South as a whole, however.

This piece is one of the more passionate articles I have written as an NFL writer. Why the playoff seeding needs to be re-arranged in the NFL. Would appreciate any feedback and grade for it. Hope you enjoy!
