Wrote a article as we're approaching the quarterpole of the NFL (more so if you count preseason).

Which players surprised even the best of analysts?

The NY Yankees and the media are trying to manipulate you.

Yankee propaganda must be exposed as lies and crushed before it can spread any further.

Hi!

Both were amazing but who was better.

The debate Greg Maddux vs Roger Clemens.

Let me know if you like it and of course feedback is always great.

Thanks

The Michigan/Notre Dame game has the feel once again of a typical rivalry game. Both teams look good last week, but see what the Irish NEED to do in order to be successful for a second Saturday in a row. Don't be shy, even you Wolverines!

Hey,

Hope you are doing swell.

In my next installment for my Indiana Hoosiers articles, I look into former quarterback Kellen Lewis. He was truly a star with IU, but then failed himself after off-the-field violations which got him cut from the University. Now he stands at a Div. II school at Valdosta St. and trying to build his way up.

I really hope you enjoy! I'd love your feedback on this, it'd be much appreciated.

All the best,
Josh Dhani

Hey Brandon

Jim Rice lumped Derek Jeter with Manny Ramirez and Alex Rodriguez as bad role models. What the heck?

Many people might not actually know about pole-vaulting queen, Yelena Isinbayeva, but she has been one of the most dominant athletes the world has seen in recent times. She finally lost at the World Athletics Championships in Berlin recently, which was a complete shock. Here's a recap on that -

I will be extremely obliged if u can give it a read.

Thanks :)

Hey Brandon,

Yeah, I'd be interested in doing a round table discussion for Sept. 1. In the past, I've emailed a few Yankee writers five questions and the compiled their responses. I'll send out an email in the coming days. What's your email address?

Thanks,
Jordan
