College football fan first. Everything else second.

I discovered this site over a year ago after a night of googling. I was hooked from the moment I saw the great college sections and unique writer rankings. The rankings are interesting enough and fun to track even though they make absolutely no sense to me.

I write on here for fun. It's a great medium for writing about what you are passionate about. The volatile arguments are what make this site great as well. I also intern as a reporter/writer at InsideTennessee.com, but writing on here is so much more satisfying as I can be more creative and a part of a wonderful group of "fans."

Favorite Athletes

Peyton Manning, Chris Lofton, Dwayne Wade, Lebron James, Terrell Owens, Andre Agassi, Eric Berry, Deron Williams, Steve Nash
Favorite Sports Teams

Tennessee Volunteers, Cincinnati Reds, Indianapolis Colts, Phoenix Suns, Cincinnati Bengals, Chicago Cubs, Toronto Mapleleafs, Chelsea, Fulham

For Pete's sake Brian, you don't have to introduce yourself to me, I've been your fan for a year!

You stay in touch. You are a terrific writer.
