About Matt »

Just graduated from the Univ. S.Carolina where I studied Geography. Now getting my masters back home in Western Pa in environmental geography.

Yes i know that Geography is about the furthest thing away from journalism, but hey I like writing about my Pittsburgh teams, and giving my two-cents on them so why not right?

Sports are my favorite thing to watch, especially college football, nfl, and nhl.

I am a die hard Pittsburgh fan through and through. I was raised in western Pa so I bleed black and gold, no matter how bad some teams can be **pirates**. I have no writing experience, but I do enjoy doing it, so why not?

I played hockey for seven years growing up, and after that I had the opportunity to coach for three years as well. Being able to see the game from two separate vantage points really helped me in understanding the game a lot more than I did while I was just playing.

My e-mail is mrhunter1986@gmail.com if you want to chat-chit (words don't control us) about any Pittsburgh sport or anything sports at all.

Hope you enjoy my articles, and feel free to agree, disagree, bash them or what not.

Alright well then basically everyone who knows the kid realizes that he's pompous. And the thing about CBS and a paid job in september. He got that from me because i'm going to have 2 paid jobs.

He crys and complains when people get mad at him for doing something annoying like having false tags and bs titles and pics to attrack more views.

He'll always try to get people banned if they say something bad about him and he's a pain on the a** to everyone.

So just don't read his article because people know he doesnt deserve the hits. And whats also funny was 2 months ago when the kid was down in the ranks he said that they were all fake as everyone knows and that they are annoying also because i had his precious Seahawks No 1 spot along with the NFC West and many more.

Then he becomes #1 as you can see on a few things on his bio and then he says now they are completly read and true.

The kid is pathetic. He doesnt deserve the hits as you can tell

I've written about this before, but changed my style a bit in this one. For some reason, I just can't get NHL fever out of my head. I had enough of watching meaningless NBA highlights. I finally chose to speak my mind...again.

If you could give a read, it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Christian

You can help. Please give a read and "pay this forward" Some things are bigger than sports.
