SoberDude's Bio

I've been a big fan of MMA since the very early days of the UFC. I support my local sports teams, regardless of how good or bad they may be, or how heart-breaking seasons may end (Vikings 15-1 season).

I also support the local MMA fighters in my area, so that means I am a fan of Brock Lesnar, Sean Sherk, Roger Huerta, Brock Larson, Brett Rogers, etc.

My day job has me sitting behind a computer all day, although I don't have much time to write. My primary reason for being on Bleacher Report is to read all the great and not so great articles that interest me. I do appreciate the time and effort that goes into writing on this site, I know it can be very time consuming.
