About Devin »

I'm eighteen years old (the top wrestler in pic) but I feel my writing is quite strong and I have a passion for sports and this seems like a great place to convey said passion. My father works as a news-editor for Sports Center at ESPN and I hope to go somewhere down the same road one day. My dream is to become play-by-play announcer for the Red Sox but this will do for now. I plan to do most of my writing here about the UFC but I might toss in a Baseball or Hockey editorial here or there. Please feel free to comment candidly on my articles, I hope to use your criticism to fine-tune my writing.

Good Lord, I didn't know I had written twenty articles in a week, Are you sure that isn't month? I have been losing my vision and I feel pressured to write before MS takes that ability away from me too. I hope in my desparation I have not killed anyone. I could never forgive myself. I had better go look in the yard.

Devin, I am so flattered that you enjoy my writing. My grandson is 15 and 1/2 and more than anything I wish he enjoyed reading and writing. So far he only enjoys his wrestling, football and arguing MMA with Grma Dee. Maybe a miracle will occur and he will become more like you are in your career aspirations. Good Luck, I think you have a good start already. Grma Dee
