About Isaac »

I have been following sports ever since I can remember, and I have been playing fantasy sports ever since Al Gore invented the internet. I grew up a fan of all the Chicago sports teams, but now I just follow the Cubs, the Bears, and the Bulls. I like to consider myself an expert on everything sport, with my research experience including watching SportsCenter a minimum of twice daily for the past 10 years or so, and reading every sports article on the internet that I can find.

My Proudest Moment in Fantasy Sports Include: Winning a 12 team hockey league where I was one of 2 Americans with 10 Canadians. Picking Adrian Peterson off the waiver wire right before the first game of the season, and then trading him for 2 WR the game before he got hurt.

Hey Isaac,

There was a touching moment in the Mariners game last night, made possible by the best pitcher I've ever gotten to watch - Randy Johnson. Watching history unfold inspired to me take a look at his incredible career and count down his five best moments, in my eyes. If you get a chance, take a look at it, I'd appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

Hey Isaac,

Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

Thanks in advance!

Hey,

Walter Johnson was one of the greatest pitchers of all time and yet sometimes is not thought of when we talk about baseball in the past. I've decided to write about him and to show how great a pitcher he really was. Please check it out and leave a comment below. Thanks in advance.

Willie Mays, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Nolan Ryan. Yes, we think we know who the best ever are. Please comment. This is one I did more research than usual on.
