About

I am a lifelong fan of basketball and football on both the professional and collegiate level. As a former juco scoring dummy and would be street ball vagabond, I imagine I know a thing or two about shutting down high-scoring egos in both football and basketball. But it's probably just my imagination. I have over 15 years worth of experience writing about and interviewing celebrities in both sports and entertainment, but I haven't been this excited about writing for a publication in quite some time. As a serial competitor I relish the challenge of rising through the ranks and gaining notoriety. My favorite teams are the Georgetown Hoyas college basketball team, the San Antonio Spurs of the NBA, the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL, Rutgers University in college football, and the New York Yankees. I almost always side with the underdog, unless my team is the over-dog of course. I promise to engage readers on many of the popular sports topics of the day from a unique and refreshing perspective. Thank you.

    Thanks for becoming a fan, Ricardo! I see you are pretty new to B/R — how are you liking it so far? I really like you writing, especially your last piece about whether or not Melo's meltdown was justified. I think it's an interesting situation and I imagine there's crazy amounts of smack talk in the NBA, and Garnett has always been known for that.
    Thanks again, and if you have any questions about that site or ideas for ways to improve the site please feel free to contact me.
