About

I majored in Media Studies and minored in Journalism at the University of San Francisco. I got involved with Bleacher Report through the internship program and stuck around afterwards when I was promoted to Featured Columnist. Writing is my life. You can see my other work at my blog, http://christophercarson.wordpress.com/, or if you are into music, I run a music blog as well, http://thereissue.tumblr.com/, with a focus on reviewing used LP's. And, every once in a while I find time to pick up the rock and play some pick up basketball too.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon, KG, Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Manny Ramirez, Bill Walton, Adam Morrison, Tim Wakefield and Stone Cold Steve Austin.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Raised on the Red Sox, but after moving to the Bay Area, I've hopped on the Giants band wagon, and I pray for the Golden State Warriors.

  • Favorite Coaches

    The guy Latrell Sprewell choked.

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Like everyone else born after 1980 and raised on reruns of Sportscentury, I think the Miracle on Ice is the greatest American moment since the British surrender at Yorktown.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Saw the '04 Red Sox beat the Orioles in 15 innings at Fenway, after a walk off homer, over the Monster, by Orlando Cabrera.

    Wilts 100 point game.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mo Vaughn

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana

  • Jordan or Russell?

    I go to USF so I gotta say Russell.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Don't care.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Pele. I don't know who the other guy is.

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Sampras. My grand mother used to tell me I looked like Pete Sampras.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    I'm a Tiger supporter.

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Petty. He had the bigger hat.

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    I had to google this one, but I'm going with Ayrton Senna.

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Big East.

    Yo, dawg. Dug some of your stuff on the GSW. Could you send me your email? Had some sort of a collaboration I wanted to talk to you about.

    Hey, would you be able to send your e mail to klangan@omnipossible.com? I want to get the B/R community leaders on a mailing list for a press release on behalf of Sports Media 101.

    Thanks
