    Hey Ryan,

    I've been away from B/R for a while but just hit it back up with a flurry of articles in the last week and a half.

    Check out my feature on Michael Beasley, and why the Heat should strongly consider keeping him.

    As the wins rack up for the Knicks, so have the negative attitudes. The complaining needs to stop.

    New to bleacher report. Just read your article about keeping Doc Rivers. Brilliant. I was thinking the same thing the other day. Coaches get the ax way too quickly.

    I have just published a battle cry for (LSU) Tiger Nation. It's a must read for Tiger fans and it might be my best literary effort to date, I hope everyone will enjoy regardless of team or sport affiliation.

    Please let me know what you think, I hope you like it.

    Thanks in advance! HB
