About Joe »

Hey everybody, Joe Willett here, but I'm sure you already knew that. The picture is from when I was at Penn St. for a sports journalism camp. We got to walk on the grass at Beaver Stadium through the tunnel the players walk through.

Specs:
Ht: 5'11
Weight: 200ish
Sex: Yes (Immature I know)

Bio:
One day, I found a website known as Bleacher Report and my life has been changed ever since. I have had great opportunities through this site to find that this is the thing that I one day want to do.

I have interviewed (sort of) Stanford Routt of the Oakland Raiders and Dwayne Bowe of the Kansas City Chiefs, I have also been stood up by Jarrett Bush. Still waiting on a reply about the actual date of the interview there. I have also been lucky enough to meet Derrick Williams of the Penn St. football team.

My favorite writers are both employed by ESPN, Rick Reilly and Bill Simmons. Both are funny and informative.

New York has been owned by Derek Jeter for quite some time. Is Mark Sanchez taking this town over though?

Did you watch the Packers - Bears game? I went back and studied the film to come up with some surprising observations, including the key play in the game that everyone has overlooked.

Comments are always appreciated.

It's common knowledge that a player with a career year will tend to regress to the mean--but, all players regress as well.

Does a player who just had a breakout or breakdown season have a larger regression than players with similar stats? Or is a breakout/breakdown just a sign of a future increase or decrease in production?
