About Fred »

Hey everyone. As you know my name is Fred L. Oliver. I have been a Steelers fan since I was 7 years old. My first memory of the Steelers was sitting in front of the TV and my Father asking me who I thought would win. I said without know the team in Black and Gold. My Mother and him laughed at me and said NO ONE BEATS the COWBOYS. As you all know the Steelers won. The following year the Steelers made it back vs the Rams again I was asked who would win I said the team in the Black and Gold and the Steelers won. The rest is history!!!

I watch NFL, and AFL football. Soon I will be watching intensly the UFL and hope they also succede in being the minor league for the NFL. I was a USFL and XFL fan. I hate college football.

I love to play Madden 08 on my laptop. I love my two boys. Been married 14 years. Will be relocating to Woodbridge Virgina in 2 years to give my sons a better chance to be successful.

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.

Nick
