About Eric »

I've decided to change things up. Less make-believe sports writer. More top-of-the-dome-nonsense.

If you don't like it you can put it in an envelope and mail it to some children who will!

The Shortlist »

  • Favorite Athletes

    Emmitt Smith, Penny Hardaway, Reggie Nelson, Danny Wuerffel, Tim Tebow, Dwight Howard, MJ...Least favorites: Magic, Isiah, Montana, Kirk Gibson, any Florida State Seminole (ever), all Mannings, several others

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Florida Gators, Orlando Magic. I really can't claim any others due to geographical constraints. I've been trying to be a Bucs fan for years, but can't figure out how. I sign free agent NFL contracts just like players do, one year at a time, for the full year, win or lose.

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Watching Florida win its second men's basketball championship from the hospital with my wife, holding my one-day-old daughter.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    '97 Florida/FSU in Gainesville

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Whatever Tiger ends up with

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Baby Ruth

  • Unitas or Montana?

    This should say 'Emmitt or Barry?' and my answer would be Emmitt

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Your mom.

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

    SEC. C'mon.

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

I've been spending time on our SEC Football 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

Thanks, dude. I'm not sure how I misspelled his name so wrong...that many times, too.

Thanks for hooking me up.

You, my friend, are poetry in motion. And not to mention, a gentleman and a scholar. Keep it coming, I love it all!

Thank you, sir, for making me a favorite writer.


As for the Magic, you're not the only one who thinks Otis Smith is not-so-good.

Dude, your freaking picture is hilarious. When it shows up mini-style in the comment section, it's pretty good.

Write more articles.

Hey Eric,

I hope you've been enjoying the new and improved Bleacher Report—we're really happy with the feedback we've received so far.

Just thought I'd let you know that next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements, and thus 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 Eric!
