Lisa's Bio

Lisa Horne is a football addict who actually understands the nuances of the x's and o's of football. She is currently going into her second year as a contracted college football sportswriter for FOXSports.com, and would love to eventually be an exclusive writer for them.

She has been published and quoted on many websites, including MSN.com, SI.com, Deadspin.com, BCSfootball.org, MSNBC.com, ESPN.com, and Steroid Nation. She has done live college football commentary for FOXSports.com, has a blog, "Straight Talk From the Left Coast," and was a guest on several radio shows including XTRA SPORTS Radio 1360 AM (San Diego).

Lisa also conducted one of the first Twitterviews (Interview conducted via Twitter) with Pete Carroll, USC Head football coach, on April 25th, 2009.

She is a 2009-10 member of the FWAA (Football Writers of America Association).

Lisa was just ten years old when she told her daddy that she would be one of the first woman to cover the Super Bowl, and she ended up fulfilling her ultimate wish (sort of) by doing live commentary of Super Bowl XLII on February 3rd, 2008 for MSN.com and FOXSports.com.

By the way, it's true. Chicks dig the long ball.

The Short List What Lisa thinks about sport's most pressing questions

  • Favorite Athletes

    Junior Seau, Rey Maualuga, Brian Cushing, Tim Tebow, Percy Harvin

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    USC Trojans, Florida Gators, Boston Celtics, Oakland Raiders and Washington Redskins

  • All Time Sports Moment

    1974 USC v ND football game. ND was leading 24-6 at halftime, and ended up losing 55-24. It was the greatest comeback in college football.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    1984 Los Angeles Olympics

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Nolan Ryan's no-nos

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mays

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana....Joe Cool is the best.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    MJ!

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    The Great one

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Federer...but it's close!

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Nicklaus...he had better competition and didn't have the technologically advanced clubs that today's golfers use.

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    King Richard

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Schumacher

  • Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

    I refuse to comment on this one because I don't think conferences should be evalulated unless every team plays each other and other conferences. It's lame to say once conference is the best. Conferences don't win championships, teams do.

  1. hey Lisa,

  2. Take a look if you get a chance read the article on Pete Carroll I think you'd enjoy it or you may have already read it. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/209784-summer-reading-the-best-american-sports-writing-2008

  3. Thanks, Lisa. Yeah, I realized that after I read that one piece of yours. Good luck in your endeavors. I'm sure everyone here will miss your fabulous work on B/R, but they get a chance to see you succeed in the "real" world, so that's something...;-)

  4. Okay, you're a fabulously talented and seemingly successful writer. You have a passion for football that apparently rivals my own. You have a pretty damn cute smile.

    Marry me?...lol

    J/K...lmao Anyway, I'll definitely have to make time to read some of your work. Looks like you're a supremely talented literary talent here on B/R I'd missed up till now.
