About Tom »

Hey,
I am a 19 year old college sophomore in Delaware County of Pennsylvania! I am majoring in Sport Management and was looking for something to do during the basketball off-season. I also coach youth basketball in the spring and summer months after school gets out!

I am a huge basketball junkie and love to put my opinion, sometimes where it doesn't belong! I will primarily write about basketball unless something outside of basketball strikes me! What I love doing is taking suggestions from other people. If there is a topic that you want to hear me write about, let me know in some way! You give me the idea and I'll make the article with my opinion!! Thanks!

Hope you enjoy my writings and I would greatly appreciate it if you put you 2 cents into my articles.

Thanks and hope you enjoy!

Yo, I just read your comment on Michael Whittenberg's wall about the WNBA and you're right big man. They play fundamentally sound ball and don't rely on athleticism to bail themselves out. Thats all women's sports though, they listen to, and take coaching a lot better than men and while the product isn't as spectacular its quite sound. Only problem is sound doesn't sell tickets, spectacular does.
