Robert's Bio

Interests:

The Braves, ESPN, The Falcons, My Beloved Hawks, Nick@Nite, UGA Football, Blasting My Music, Movies That Make Me Laugh, Playing Poker with the Guys, and Playing Football at Centennial Olympic Park

Favorite Quotes:

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
~ Michael Jordan

And so we can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
~Dave Matthews

And Yes, I Am Everyone's Favorite Cashew!

Hey Robert,

I'm writing articles on the MLB 9s and thought you'd be interested in the Atlanta Braves' piece.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers,

Former MLB player Eric Karros called my article into question on Colin Cowherd's ESPN Radio show yesterday.

He challenged me for a re-do: but here's my response.

I assure you, it's not just a ridiculous personal attack, but it shows that Karros was off-base with his statements.

I hope you got a chance to checkout my first piece about the 10 Best Strikeout Performances since 1954.

This piece takes a look at the 10 Lowest Strikeout Performances in a no-hitter Since 1954. Some very interesting games here!

I've held my silence long enough...time to address the Manny issue.

But it's not the same boring thing everyone has been writing about, I took an in-depth look at how Manny's presence in the lineup effects the key everyday players for the Blue Crew.

I promise, no PED talk or nothing!

Take a look at Brett Wallach, the Dodgers' 4th round pick. His dad Tim used to play for the Expos and Dodgers, and now both of his sons are in the Dodgers organization with him.
