About Ryan »

Hey I'm Ryan. So i am currently writing this because i was on facebook.com at 3:15 am with nothing to do and only Olympic Gymnastics on Universal HD. I saw an advertising banner on the side and said what the hell. I was born and raised here on Long Island and will be a senior in high school shortly. I would like to make sports part of my life as I get older. The only way for me to do that since I suck at everything I try (including badmitten, yeah its that bad) is to write or broadcast. My dream job would be to take over for the great Gary Cohen when and if he retires from SNY and be the Mets play-by-play announcer. I am not only a Mets fan, but also a New York Rangers and New York Giants fan. It is becoming hard for me to stay a Knicks fan these days (thanks Isiah) so I may turn to the Nets when they move to Brooklyn. I also play drums if anyone cares about other things besides sports and video games are a big hobby of mine. So yeah thats the abbriged biography of Ryan. If you have any questions, e-mail me or something.

Ryan,

Thanks for the kind words...

I would definitely recommend Syracuse as one of the best (if not THE best) school for broadcast journalism. I know a lot of schools like Northwestern and Missouri and Kansas have reputations for having great broadcasting programs. Knowing the courses I took in college and the way they prepared me for life in the business world, Syracuse will definitely get you ready for the broadcast world.

My last three years of high school were in Georgia, so I know some people who have gone through UGA's broadcasting program and they've said it's good. I have no knowledge of Florida's or Michigan's programs.

Hope that helps.
