About

I have been watching sports my whole life. I love sports. I can not imagine anything else having the same effect on my life as sports does. It is a great feeling to watch your team win. It is even better when they beat your buddies favorite team.

I was at the 2004 NCAA National Championship when my LSU Tigers took home the trophy. I watched Warren Morris hit the home run to clinch the 1996 College World Series. I saw the Blue Grass Miracle. I have been to hundreds of Saints games. I live for Sports.

I attended the 2010 SEC baseball tournament in Hoover,Alabama and was fortunate enough to watch my LSU Tigers win their third consecutive SEC tournament defeating Florida, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, and Alabama.

I have lived in Texas, Florida, and Louisiana. I was born and raised in New Orleans, where I still live.

I write about sports and women because, well, IT IS AWESOME TO DO!

My articles have been linked to in the LA Times, NY Times, Maxim.com, Examiner.com, Coedmagazine.com, seattlepi.com, Dallas Daily News, Houston Chronicle, Sports illustrated, CBSsports.com Cracked.com, USAToday.com, TMZ.com, and bustedcoverage.com

    RE: WAG list. You got the wrong picture of Steve Nash's girlfriend Brittany. You put a picture of an actress.

    Thomas,
    having a few concerns with your "Top 100 Logos" article.

    Being a Graphic Designer, there are many many things that we are taught when it comes to Logo design. You can imagine the countless logos that i see and immediately want to vomit in my mouth.
    So when it comes to sports logos, there are many things to consider for the design, like team location, colors, competition, local icons, etc.
    Having said that, i think 1/4 of your top 100 list is accurate. Your explanations like "reminds me of anchorman so i like it" shows me and the audience that there is no creditability to your list. I would like to read more about the look of the logo rather than reading about your past and when you remember this and that (Jurassic Park, Mighty Ducks). Some of the logos that you selected tell me that you lack the knowledge of design basics or the "do's and don'ts" about logos.
    Now this is only my opinion and you can judge it for what it is worth, i am just letting you know that Im speaking for the Graphic Design community and saying that yes, there are some phenomenal logos on this list, and there are some logos that should never be seen again. This is my first post on this website and hope to get more use to this b/r culture and continue to give my opinion on these little things.
    Cheers,
    JA
