About Jared »

My name is Jared Zeidman. I am the founder of TakeoverTheGame.com and an aspiring everything guy. There is too much that I want to do with my life and sports writing and reporting is just one part. I also write music and play local bar gigs and I also am on my way to graduate school to get a masters in Collegiate level student administration. So I guess my real goal is to help everyone else succeed and then succeed at something else at the same time.

Thank you all for the support, and I love you to pieces.

Do you blame the Knicks struggles this season on Chris Duhon? See what I think.

Hey!

Would you mind checking out my latest article? It talks about the 2009 super sophomores for the Ohio State buckeyes! If you're not a buckeye fan, it's an interesting read and you could extend you're knowledge on college football. Thanks!

Much has been written about the Steelers, the 1970s, and their use of steroids. The current public perception is the Steelers began and glamorized the use of roids in the 70s. Read my article to find out who one man, with 4 NFL teams, spread the use of steroids throughout the NFL, beginning in 1963, and see just how pervasive roid usage was by the time the Steelers began their decade of dominance.

I've written two new articles recently. Please have a look and let me know what you think, thanks!

How The Roethlisberger Story Affects a Sports Family: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/223595-roethlisbergers-effect-on-a-sports-family

And I wrote an article debating the view I see commonly on BleacherReport that 2004 was a major shifting point in the elevation of passer rating in the NFL. Let me know your thoughts:

Ben Roethlisberger faces a lot of criticism for not putting up MVP-like numbers year in and year out. I believe it is the system he plays in. Read my article "Do Lack of Pass Attempts Keep Steelers' Roethlisberger Down?" for a statistical explanation.
