Tom,

I know this is a very lengthy piece, but it’s one I hope you find the time to enjoy at your leisure. It’s a fantastic biographical tribute to the greatest boxer in history, Sugar Ray Robinson. If you have the time, give it a perusal and let me know what you think.

I know we are all upset about Dawkins leaving for the Broncos. However, I think it's clear he is one athlete that will always have "Brotherly Love" when it comes to the city of Philadelphia. If you have time, I'd love to know what you think. Thanks!

Tom,

I'm trying to do a Mock Draft using all of the NFL Team Community Leaders as GM's.
I've tried to get in contact with both Seahawks leaders and neither have gotten back to me. If you would like to be Seattle's GM, please e-mail me soon. Seattle is currently on the clock.

Thanks,

Hey Tom,

I did a piece on the future of the Seahawks. I thought you'd like it.

Hey Tom,
I got your note asking for some constructive criticism, but I've been a little busy at work the last few days.

Had a chance to read your Brett Favre column...very funny. Good stuff there. I agree with you on Hasselbeck as well. Very underrated.

My only advise would be to try to write a little more like you would talk...as if you're having a conversation with the reader. If you would use "he's" or "it's" in real conversation instead of "he is" or "it is" then do the same thing in your article. Otherwise, it tends to sound a little robotic.

Just a minor critique...I've enjoyed your stuff so far. Keep up the good work!

If you have any questions or need any help, please let me know.

Thanks,
Sean
