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.

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.

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...;-)

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.
