About neil »

I'm 22 years old currently residing in Columbia, Maryland and a long time lover of the teams that love to break your heart, the Phillies, Eagles and Mountaineers. I've been watching all kinds of sports since I was a young kid.

I enjoy objective speculation about sports, trying to predict what will happen before it does, so man of my articles will be in that realm.

I'm a former West Virginia University News-Editorial Journalism student (2004-2008).

You can find my coverage of Baltimore and Howard county youth league games at www.DigitalSports.com.
