About

I am a recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame and, accordingly, am a huge fan of all things ND. The articles that you find here on Bleacher Report can also be found on my blog, Stars And Slights, that I co-write with a longtime friend, Justin Cates, who recently began posting articles on here. Check out his personal page: http://bleacherreport.com/users/75736-justin-cates

I'm an eternal optimist so don't ever tell me that something is not possible. Not probable, yes, but nothing is impossible. I hope you enjoy listening to what I have to say, but if you disagree (or agree for that matter) please feel free to let me know about it. GO IRISH!

    Hey Brian,
    Check out our new blog - Clashmore Mike. If we can work it out, do you want to co-list our blogs on each other's sites?
    If you find the time, I would be grateful if you looked at my writings either on Bleachers or Clashmore, some of which have appeared in Blue-Gold Illustrated.
