The Tragic Death Of Nick Adenhart and How Baseball Needs To Send a Message
04/10/2009
I'm Naveen Maliakkal. I am sixteen and live in Pittsford, NY.
Sports have I always been a passion of mine. Since I was five I have loved all kinds of sports. I am originally from Albany NY making me a big fan of NYC sports. I believe that the moment a child picks the team they are going to root for, they have made a decisions that will stick with them in good times and in bad, till death consume you.
I am a huge NY Giants fan and that catch by Tyree is still playing in my mind. Sadly I am a Knicks fan, but I hope that Walsh and D'Antoni will make the NBA's most important franchise into champions. When it comes to baseball I am a Yankees die hard and on that note, there is no Red Sox Nation.
You guys stole it from the Raider Nation and refuse to own up to it.
Since I got FSC I have become an Arsenal fan as, well. When it comes to college sports I am and Tar Heels Basketball fan and a Florida Gators football fan. However, in Albany nothing was better than watching the Siena Saints in the Pepsi Arena. Sampras was the reason I picked up a tennis racquet. I pretty much love sports in general.
I want to see people commenting on what I write. There is nothing greater than discussing sports with someone else and Bleacher Report is an excellent forum.
Hey Naveen, sick of athletes complaining about their jobs, when in reality, they have the best jobs imaginable? Me too. Here's an article about how to find positives in any job, even if there's no million dollar contract.

The Yankees need to add depth, especially if A-Rod is out for a while. Here's some of the possible trade candidates ranging from Miguel Tejada to Max Ramirez. As a Red Sox fan, I'd like to know what you think.

FYI, Naveen, you can ignore that Zander imposter who posted immediately below. That is simply the work of a simpleton who cannot create an identity on his own so he steals those of others...

write tennis -
and i'll discuss with you ... i like your style of writing
but some of your tennis articles do not get exposure - because your over tag them
like the final four breakdown US open
keep the tag simple -
tennis - men's tennis - prediction
unless or until you are discussing about specific player - dont bother tagging players
somethin ive learnt
cheers -
looking forward to seeing more of you in the tennis house - thanks for the bio

DeleteYesterday, we learned of the passing of Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart. At 22, he was one of many great athletes who died too young. Here's a tribute to some of the greatest athletes ever who did the same. I'd appreciate it if you could check this out.
