Brandon's Bio

I am just an ordinary sports fan that loves to talk and write about sports.

I am currently a student majoring in Communication-Journalism at Buffalo State College and I am also a staff writer for the school newspaper, "The Record." I aspire to someday work as a sports journalist or public relations specialist, but if that doesn't pan out I am open to many possibilities.

I'm always busy with school and work, so my spare time is very limited.
I am a die hard Buffalo sports fan and owner of both Bills and Sabres season tickets.
If you would like to contact me, just shoot me an email at kochbm71@mail.buffalostate.edu.

What up everyone? I wrote an article about the changes here on B/R over the last couple of months, and about some of the things that we used to have, that we don't anymore. If you could, check it out.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/261261-dear-bleacher-report-please-bring-back-the-old-format

As I have said in the past, many times, I am not on here for AOTD votes, but I believe that if enough of you give me your AOTD vote, then maybe the higher ups will bring back some of the things that are gone.

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.

It's a little late but I thought I'd add my two cents regarding Joe Sakic's retirement. Please feel free to take a gander when you get a spare moment. Thanks.
