About

I am an avid sports fan with an emphasis on baseball and college basketball. I also have a strong interest in statistics and so I incorporate them into my articles frequently.

In college sports I am a fan of Penn State, Kentucky, Virginia, and Virginia Tech. I have several favorite pro teams but usually I pull for the underdogs. I have a personal blog which I plan on writing on periodically and then copying articles to here.

    Hey, Brett!

    As the Big Ten Basketball community leader, I was wondering if you could take a look at this and let me know what you think. Thanks!

    Carson Palmer has influenced some new addition's on the Bengals team. Is it a good thing or bad?

    Hey Brett,

    Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

    Thanks in advance!

    Brett,

    Spring practice is wrapping up across the country and we are a little over four months away from kick-off. To make the time go a little faster, I will countdown my top 50 teams one team at a time. We start, of course, at No. 50...

    Who was better, Joe Montana or Steve Young?

    I've done more research for this article than any other I've ever written as I went inside the numbers in an effort to answer that very difficult question.

    If you get the chance, I'd love to get your feedback.

    Thanks :)
