About David »

I'm a 26-year-old writer, currently freelancing for a couple different media outlets. While the stuff I write here is a bit offbeat and colorful, I do some serious work for the personal websites of Lakers Lamar Odom and Derek Fisher. Check them out at www.LamarOdom.com and www.DerekFisher2.com

    Thank you for editing the edits...maybe B/R should consider clamping down a little bit on that particular function of the site...

    It is fine if you perceive people don't care about history or, it appears, reading

    but in order to pay proper homage to history, you must cover all of it

    unless one just want info in tiny spoonfuls so they can go on to the next item because the attention span rather keep it that way.

    this is not my first team done, it is my eighth. I think I have a grasp on how I want it done.


    all said - ty for not destroying my piece like a few other of your ilk (b/.r editors) have attempted before

    New Article: Redskins (sort of) Resurgence: What the Past Few Weeks Tell Us

    published by David Covucci

    Yea, yea, it’s been a couple weeks. I know. After my disaster of a Dallas prediction, I crawled into a hole and refused to come out until the Redskins scored a touchdown...

    Thanks for the feedback. I think you have to step back a pinch however. On the KC comment, off the field implies the front office. Your comments are good, but your take is not entirely on the money.

    Dave I'm not sure youre acquainted with football here but I can see why that style miht seem scatterbrained. Especially since American sports articles tend to be statistic parties and as-is opinion pieces. Thanks for the edit anyway.

    Hey David, thanks for the edits.

    Couple of things—I'm British, hence the honour rather than honor, and suchlike. Kept the single o for Medal of Honor, but changed it for the others.

    Also, for the same reason I can't justify including Veteran's Day in the title. It's called Rememberance Day over here, but saying "This is why we remember on Rememberance Day" would sound weird. (Granted, little more weird than a Scot calling it Veteran's Day.)

    But I think I agreed w/ most of the rest. Cheers, I appreciate it.
