About

I'm currently attending Brigham Young University, majoring in print journalism. I write for BYU's award-winning newspaper, The Daily Universe, and spent the Fall on the football beat. I'm in the process of finding an internship this summer so I can graduate by December.

Earlier in life, I was a "correspondent" for the Late Show with David Letterman. I attended the 1995 World Series and Super Bowl XXX, reporting under my nickname, "Sparky".

    David, do not use the LV Sun for support, no one reads it. Those of us who write for the LV Review Journal the real paper in Vegas, would think you had lost your mind.

    Hey David,

    Matt Miselis, Baltimore Ravens Community Leader here. I just wanted to let you know as the leader of this community that it was enjoying to read your article on Michael Oher.

    Michael has been a great topic for the Ravens discussion, which has brought a lot of interest within the community.

    As I begin my voyage of making the Ravens community one of the best on B/R, I encourage you to write about the Ravens, as you do seem to talk what you are talking about.

    I also suggest you join the Baltimore Ravens community for future updates and ideas that may happen in the future.

    Anyway, I thank you for your time and hope to see you continue writing for the Ravens in the future!


    Matt
