About

I am a member of B/R's Inaugural Writing Internship Class.

I am a junior at the University of Missouri School of Journalism in Columbia, Mo. I'm a huge sports fan, but not a sports fanatic; I look forward to not only becoming a better writer, but also a better sports enthusiast. My favorite teams are the St. Louis Cardinals, the Missouri Tigers (football and basketball), and even the St. Louis Rams (fair-weather, schmare-meather).

My knowledge of world sports is limited, but I play a great deal of FIFA10 on my friend's Xbox... I like Bayern Munich and Brazil... The Olympics are also quite entertaining... U-S-A, U-S-A...

In the fall, I will begin my coursework in convergence journalism. I'm not sure what I want to do in the future, but I know I want to write.

At Mizzou, I play trombone in the marching and basketball pep bands. So, I get to see all the home games for our football and basketball teams, and get to travel around the country to bowl games and NCAA tournaments. Live sporting events trump TV sporting events any day, even if you have to play trombone for three hours to to see them.

    Dear Mr. Deutschmann:

    I take it you are of Teutonic ancestry with such an impressive family name.

    I have enjoyed your work and encourage you to continue creating such fine reading.

    I believe you are on the mark with Boise State for 2010, well done article.

    Hello there! I've read some of your work recently, especially on the Cardinals. It was quite good. I was wondering if you would check out my latest article in you free time.

    I accidentally "liked" my own article... I'm not full of myself, really! Rookie mistake.
