About Aaron »

What can you say about Aaron Keel that hasn't already been said. A self-described "Asshole with a heart of gold", Aaron brings to writing what pickles and ice cream brings to pregnant women. Euphoria.

Aaron was born in Arizona but grew up in the Bay Area where his love of all Bay Area teams and sports was born. Having completely bored his friends and family to tears with his analysis of all things sports Aaron decided to put his rambling to good use and started writing.

Married to his wonderful and extremely supportive wife Emily, Aaron hopes to continue writing about sports and life in general for a long time to come.

The Shortlist »

  • Favorite Athletes

    Terrell Owens, Allen Iverson, Peyton Manning, , Barry Bonds(Yes that's right) All the San Jose Sharks

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    San Jose Sharks, Indianapolis Colts, San Francisco 49ers, S.F. Giants, Oakland A's, Phoenix Coyotes, Denver Nuggets, Anyone who is playing the Patriots or the Phoenix Suns

  • Favorite Coaches

    Bo Schlembecher

  • All Time Sports Moment

    I have 2-Allen Iverson dropped 48 on the L.A. Lakers in game 1 of the 2001 NBA Finals and the N.Y. Giants beating the N.E. Patriots in Super Bowl 42

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    I covered the Arizona State/U.S.C. college football game this past Thanksgiving and it was amazing to see the game from the press box

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    For a one man record I would have to go with Gretzky's 215 point single season mark. No one has even come close to it and the way the game is played now I don't think anyone ever will. For a team mark I would go with the Lakers 33 game win streak in the early 70's, not even Jordan's 72 win Bulls came close to that mark.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    I will go with Mays because he played in an era where blacks actually played the game, the same for the most part cannot be said of the Babe, he played the best "white" players of that time.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    With all due respect to Joe Cool I have to go with Unitas on this one. He is one of the few players from his day along with Jim Brown that I believe could play in this era of football and has success. His blend of pure quarterbacking ability and toughness is not something we see very often in the qb position these days except from maybe Brett Favre.

  • Jordan or Russell?

  • Gretzky or Orr?

  • Pele or Maradona?

  • Federer or Sampras?

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

  • Schumacher or Senna?

  • Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Hey Aaron—Dave Mo here, a Bleacher Report Community Coordinator.

I've been spending time on our Suns page and read a couple of your old articles. Really on-point analysis...you do good work.

Given that you haven't written in a while, I thought I'd check in and see if you're interested in picking up your coverage again. What do you say?

If not, it would be great if you could give me some feedback on why you decided to stop writing and what we could have done to better serve you. If you wouldn't mind, please shoot me a line at dmorrison@bleacherreport.com with any thoughts.

Thanks so much,

Dave Mo

Hey Aaron,

I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.

Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Aaron!

Check this out Aaron:

http://www.otrbasketball.com/forums/

One of Bleacher Report's writers (Brandon Neal) runs it. He's agreed to bring some more NBA die-hards on board, and in exchange we told him we'd encourage our best basketball gurus to check out his site.

Have a great weekend Aaron,
Zander
