About

I'm a journalism student at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, entering my senior year. I'm from the Chicagoland area, though I've spent a lot of time around Atlanta as well. My favorite teams are the White Sox, Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks and Chelsea in the English Premier League.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Michael Jordan, Brian Urlacher, Frank Thomas, Paul Konerko, Jonathan Toews, Didier Drogba, Carlos Quentin, Mark Buehrle, Devin Hester

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    White Sox, Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks, Chelsea

  • Favorite Coaches

    Ozzie Guillen, Joel Quenneville, Tom Thibodeau, Phil Jackson, Mike Tomlin

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Paul Konerko catching a laser from Juan Uribe in game 4 of the 2005 World Series to give the White Sox their first title since 1917.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    2008 AL Central one game playoff. White Sox v. Twins. A 1-0 game decided by an (then White Sox) all time-great Jim Thome's rocket over the center field wall.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    72-10 record by the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls. Call me biased, but you can assemble a team full of all-stars, but no one will match the dominance by MJ & co.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Slight edge to Mays. Ruth was undeniably the best slugger the game has ever seen, but Willie Mays did everything, exceptionally.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan, not even close.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele. If I remember correctly, he needed no hands from God to win an important match.

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Sampras, just for all those years of shutting down Agassi.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger, but my answer becomes less confident by the day.

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Not a racing fan, but you can't deny Earnhardt was a total badass, especially with that black car.

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Schumacher, just because his name is more familiar.

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Isn't it Pac 12 now?

    I can become a fan of a White Sox writer/fan...nothing against my Cubs doctrine in that ;)

    Congratulations on being the No. 1 White Sox writer for September. At one point last week, I looked at the leaderboard and thought, "He did it! He's one clever writer."

    Hey, would you be able to send your e mail to klangan@omnipossible.com? I want to get the B/R community leaders on a mailing list for a press release on behalf of Sports Media 101.

    Thanks
