Sean's Bio

I found this site looking for mock predictions of the 2008-2009 season and fell in love with it. Having already been a writer on a few other public sharing sites, I decided to try my hand at sports writing. I'm a 20 year old football fan that roots for the New York Giants in the NFC and the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC.
I'm looking into trying out for the local community college football teams as either a cornerback/safety or a wide receiver.

My specs are as follows:
6'3"
185
Tall and lanky build

Is Ben Roethlisberger more clutch than Tom Brady and the rest of the league? I've created a new measure to test quarterback "clutchness". FInd out how Eli Manning faired.

Hey Sean,

Lou Gehrig has somehow been forgotten amongst the game’s immortals, even though he was possibly even more of a reason for the success of Ruth’s 1927 Yankees. Read about the quiet, forgotten leader of “Murderer’s Row,” Henry Lou Gehrig.

Thanks in advance!

Sean, I'd love your input on this. Today, the NFL Draft took place. The Baltimore Ravens drafted Michael Oher and Paul Kruger to add youth to the offensive and defensive line. Was it good or bad?

Now that Ray Lewis is re-signed and Bart Scott is gone, Baltimore has a whole to fill at LB. Who do I think Ozzie Newsome should draft? Rey Maualuga. I think he will fall to us. Please comment/read.
