Majesh's Bio

I'm a die-hard Chicago Sports fan who had definitely had his life span shortened due to years of following Chicago teams.

I've dreamt about being a Cubs play-by-play man ever since I watched Harry Caray yuck it up on WGN. This spurred my interest in Sports Journalism, and I was a sports writer and columnist for the Daily Illini at the best college in the world, the University of Illinois. B/R allows me to continue to share my opinions on the world and its an awesome site.

I follow the entire spectrum of sports, including Soccer(Football for the rest of the world) and even Cricket! There is nothing that I love more than talking sports, any time, any place.

Hey AVR,

I've finally gotten round to writing a football article! It's about players with huge potential who never quite achieved what they should have.

I think it will prove an interesting read. Let me know what you think.

Please spread the word!!!

Cheers

Yeah, I do.
I remeber waking up the day after the game, and asking my dad if the Sox had won, and when he said that this guy who never hits homers launched one for the game winner for the Yankees, I actually cried. I was 8-years-old at the time.

Hey Majesh—Jeff here, a Bleacher Report Community Coordinator.

I've been spending time on our Bulls page and read a couple of your old articles. Really on-point analysis...you do good work.

Given that you haven't written in a while, I thought I'd check in and see if you're interested in picking up your coverage again. What do you say?

If not, it would be great if you could give me some feedback on why you decided to stop writing and what we could have done to better serve you. If you wouldn't mind, please shoot me a line at jeff@bleacherreport.com with any thoughts.

Thanks so much,

Jeff
