Just finished a very important article on anger in sports. Please help me to get the message out by reading and commenting on this article.

Thanks!

Just finished two new articles on U of H football. My 2009 season predictions and star quarterback Case Keenum being named a watch list candidate for the Davey O'Brien Award.

Please take a look at both and provide your excellent comments!

Thanks so much.

I was checking out Ryan's profile to see what he was up to when I saw what you wrote. You seem like a really nice guy, so I became your fan. Just saying, cause otherwise I may have seemed kind of random. You should write some articles. Are you a basketball guy?

Thanks for the kind words, Patrick.

You're right that opinion writers are inherently vulnerable to the slings and arrows of angry fans, but I've actually come to enjoy the criticism almost as much as the praise. I figure if I can get some yahoo to spend 10 minutes writing a profanity-laced tirade, I've at least succeeded in making him pay attention.

That said, I'm certainly glad you've enjoyed what you've read so far, and I'll keep aiming to please going forward. But...if you ever disagree, I trust you'll let me hear about it.

Thanks again,

Ryan

Exactly... I mean, I'm more than willing to bitch about out starting pitching, but the truth is, we have the offense to bail them out if they even give a mediocre effort for now. I don't know, I was sick of going back and forth, and to be honest, I think I made the right decision. And we'll see how Pedro pans out. I keep forgetting about him.

Welcome to B/R, Patrick. Hope you have a good stay, look forward to your articles!
