About

I have been a Bay Area sports fan since I was a very young kid. My favorite professional teams are the 49ers, SF Giants, Warriors and SJ Sharks. I am also a Cal alum and a big fan of Cal athletics. I coach basketball at the high school level, which I find very rewarding. Writing for Bleacher Report gives me a great outlet to voice my thoughts and opinions on the teams and sports I enjoy.

    No problem, Dan, hopefully the 49ers can keep it up!

    Wow! I'm a little bit surprised at that. I'm certain my D- is harsh, but a B seems very generous. I think at best it was a C, but hey that's why we do what we do!

    Great stuff on the Niners. Sorry myself and "A.N." are blowing up your comment feed on that Week 10 report. I guess we are just both very persistent, passionate...STUBBORN 49er fans. Maybe we need an NFL analyst to come in and make a decision for us...Haha.

    Thanks Dan! Your articles are great to read.. I've read all of them. One thing i really suggest though is to write a follow-up article (either today or tomorrow) talking about what teams will most likely acquire each player that you mentioned.I know you gave the percentage for each player and all, but it would be wise to now state in a new article on which teams will most likely get the players or in Johnathan Sanchez's deal ( who will he most likely walk or go to, since the giants will not take him next year). I also advise you to write a article on "who will be the Giants 5th starter"...because ALOT of people have been really wanting to know.

    Thanks.

    -Steven

    P.S.....is Prince Fielder,Michael Bourn,Jose Bautsista,Albert Pujols,or Rickie Weeks a good thing for the giants to get? what is the percentage of them getting them (individual percentages).thanks
