About

Stephen Black has just surrendered to his sportswriting passion after a six-year "cup of coffee" in the corporate world. He currently writes for a weekly publication distributed in metro Atlanta. When he is not writing, he is searching for a good game to watch and people to discuss it with.

Stephen lives in Atlanta and loves to observe the four major professional sports when not obsessing about college sports. He is a graduate of the University of Georgia and follows SEC sports especially closely. He also has an unexplainable fascination with international soccer, especially the World Cup.

    I am surprised by the number of people who actually want to reserve the right to bad-mouth their teams! I offer constructive criticism, of course, but one in particular wants to be able to say, "they suck," if they do.

    I don't get it. Will YOU take the pledge?
