About

Groomed from an early age to accept sporting perfection- I was ushered in to the world of College Football as a fan [die-hard] of the Florida State Seminoles. My earliest moment of sports besides WrestleMania was watching a Florida State/Florida game with my brother. The Lakers are also one of my favorite sporting teams, ranging back to the days I can remember with Magic leading and making unbelievable plays. Of course the Raiders come into play. Those are my big 3, I also am a MMA enthusiast and still follow Professional Wrestling. Not as much as before, but I never allow myself to fall far behind.

    Hey Justin, I checked out the Aaron Curry article and just wanted to throw a few things out there. I'm currently in the Writer internship program and I am noticing some of the benefits. I know you didn't ask for advice so I will just try to keep it general.

    You are a fan of the ACC and Curry was absolutely a beast in college, so why not talk about some of his stats? The fact that he was so dominant that not only did he win the Butkus Award for the nations top linebacker but Dick Butkus was so impressed with him as a player that he delivered the trophy to him in person?

    or the fact that Curry was not just a combine star and everyone had him ranked as the best athlete for a reason, and that doesn't just go away. Seattle is the place where talent goes to die and I think Curry will be a great addition for such a low price it was a great move. I like your writing style but I think you can strengthen it by making it even more than your opinion.

    I hope this helps.

    It's NBD. Like I said, my article did not get the views I was hoping for and it was lost to the archives so mine had run it's course. Thanks for becoming a fan, I appreciate it. Best of luck with your article and any future pieces. I will keep my eye out for your material.

    Dang man. I don't know if people don't see it the way we do or what. I don't know if you checked out my article I posted about 8 hours ago but hopefully yours will get more hits than mine did!
